Abandoned jackets and unnecessary baggage – There’s a better way
There is a growing issue in Lapland when it comes to winter clothing that we want to bring up. This issue affects both companies and customers, even though there is a simple solution for it. According to Yle, tourists are leaving behind thousands of euros worth of winter clothing in Lapland hotels. Sometimes even brand-new jackets and gear, simply because they don’t want to carry them home.
For companies this creates extra logistical hassle trying to get rid of these clothes sustainably or finding storage room for them. All this extra work that doesn’t belong to their responsibilities takes away from their resources that could be used to improve something more beneficial.
For customers and consumers this brings mostly financial losses, since winter clothing can be expensive. Most of the travellers come for a once in a lifetime -experience and the gear they buy ends up used just once. Nobody wins in this situation, since it’s wasteful and unsustainable both financially and economically.
Beyond the financial and logistical hassle, there's also a growing environmental concern. Perfectly usable winter clothing being discarded after just a few wears contributes to textile waste and overproduction.
And that’s why you should rent winter wear
Renting is a simple and smarter choice to help fix this problem. You can rent the premium winter clothing only for the time you actually need them. This means no extra packing, no waste and no unnecessary purchases.
Our rental process not only includes the kind of clothing that keeps you warm and comfortable on your trip, but they are also modern and photo-friendly pieces you’d want to wear! The rental service also includes delivery and pick-up, which is something that companies especially appreciate, but also the customers (since it leaves extra space in your luggage for souvenirs).
Our collection features The LuxJa Bundle (Joutsen Down Jacket, Jack Wolfskin Down Pants, Moon Boots, Hestra Gloves and a beanie), Coveralls, Unelma Joutsen Down Poncho and LuxJa Backpack.
