I’d actually consider that. It’d depend on the shoes and the price. At present, I’m running about 1,500km a year. My shoes are $260 (unless I can find them on sale) and I get around 1,000km out of each pair. That works out at around $10-15 per week on shoes.
I doubt whoever is renting shoes out is charging that much for the service.
That’s probably too much. Even though it’s roughly what I’m paying now. While the subscription commitment would encourage me to make sure I was running to get value for it, the risk of not owning my shoes and the service being timely with replacements wouldn’t offset the stability I have now of just owning my shoes.
In short, I can’t see who this would be better for.
Why sell something once if they can sell it to you every month whether you use it or not?

I read recently about BMW selling subscriptions for their heated seats.

Well you can (and I do) buy digital versions. So no sub required. Or just shop at Amazon.com.
LPT: UK is the same Blu-ray region as us. So Amazon.co.uk if your player isn’t region free.
Funnily enough I have a region A player. From when Blu rays were quite new. I believe the newer ones are region free these days.
I remember I couldn’t lend my disks to my friends as their players were region locked B. Region A had the thinner cases too which I liked.
