About this tour
When Mia from our BugBitten team needed serious cold-weather kit for a US winter trip, this rental outfit sorted her completely. They handle the full winter armour — parka, snow pants, bibs, boots, and gloves — all sanitised between rentals and held in reserve once you book. It's a one-day rental with flexible pickup and drop-off windows, including late-night and early-morning slots. No tour attached; this is pure gear hire for anyone heading into proper snow without lugging their own kit across an ocean.

- Gear cleaned and quarantined between each use
- Sizes up to 5XL and cuts for different body types
- Book ahead to lock in your size and style preference
- One-way rentals available for flexibility
- Late-night and early-morning pickup/return options

What to expect
This is a straightforward rental transaction, not a guided experience. You'll pick up a complete cold-weather outfit fitted to your size and hit the road. Mia found the gear well-maintained and properly sized — no wrestling with ill-fitting boots or a parka that won't zip over your layers. The team knows what they're doing with fit across all body types, and if you've reserved ahead, your stuff is already set aside. Late pickups suit travellers arriving at odd hours; early returns work if you're catching a flight the next day.
The real win is not schlepping your own winter coat from Australia. You get kit that's actually designed for serious cold, without the luggage nightmare. Drop-off flexibility means you can grab gear before heading into snowy terrain and return it at your own pace.
Good to know
Dead handy if you're flying in from somewhere warm and need full winter armour without bringing half your wardrobe. The size range and care for fit means you won't be stuck in something that doesn't work. Reserving ahead guarantees your gear is there and correct for your frame. One-way rentals and flexible hours suit chaotic travel schedules. Wheelchair accessible, pram-friendly, service animals okay.
This is rental-only — no expert advice on layering or what conditions suit what. You're trusting their cleaning process between users, though they do quarantine. No guide or tour element; you're on your own for where to go and how to use the kit safely in extreme cold.
Book in advance to lock in your size. Bring ID and a payment method. Pickup/return windows are flexible (check exact times when booking). Parka, snow pants, bibs, boots, and gloves included. Not clear what happens if gear gets damaged mid-trip — ask before you rent. Group size is just you (or your crew renting separate sets). Peak times are winter school holidays.
