Whoa if true.

      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.
