Isadore Jersey "Rental" Service

Isadore Apparel is debuting a "rental subscription" service for their jerseys. Seems like a pretty good idea. https://isadore.com/subscription

Come to think of it, why can't we do that here with bikes? Anyone have a 58ish Ellis Strada I can rent for three months?

I love Isadore stuff (actually just bought a jersey and it came in the mail this morning), but this is a no go for me.

Someone was bound to try it in cycling..
Subscription clothing is one of the hottest segments in fashion right now, especially on the women's side.

In this day and age of Pandemic issues, their timing might be a lil off

I see two potential pluses, here. One, get to try out new brands & styles for less (I imagine), and Two, more stuff for closeout prices.

All of you being squeamish, they likely have washing machines.
Edit after actually looking at it: They do! And, sadly, they won't.

All rented jerseys will be professionally cleaned by an ecologically certified laundry service and inspected before being rented out to a different customer. They will be thoroughly cleaned to ensure all viruses and bacteria will be killed. Every jersey will then be carefully inspected before being rented out to a different customer.

Once a jersey has finished its lifecycle, it will be recycled and reused for ecological insulation.
