Warm gear changes everything in Lapland. This rental helps you arrive ready, with a full thermal winter set (jacket, trousers, mittens, snow boots) for days of Arctic exploring without stuffing your suitcase. It’s also practical that stores are set up across Lapland, including Levi and Rovaniemi, so you can match your base and plans.

I like the way the clothing is built to handle nasty northern weather, with waterproof and windproof protection plus premium insulation. The look stays modern, so it works for both outdoor time and a night out. One possible drawback: base layers aren’t included, so you’ll want to bring your own thermal top and bottoms for the coldest days.

  • Size help built in: you share name, height, weight, shoe size, and age so they prepare your items
  • Free size exchanges: if something doesn’t fit right, you can swap at the store

Renting winter clothing in Levi is the smart Lapland shortcut

Levi: Rent Winter Clothing Sets - Renting winter clothing in Levi is the smart Lapland shortcut
If you’ve ever tried to travel to Lapland with bulky winter gear, you already know the pain: heavy bags, awkward packing, and that moment where you wonder if you’ll actually wear half of what you brought. Renting a full kit in Levi changes the whole equation. You show up with space in your luggage and you’re ready to go, immediately.

The big win here is that you’re not buying one-off pieces. You rent a coordinated set designed for the same conditions, from cold outdoor time to quick trips around town. That matters because winter comfort isn’t just about warmth. It’s about wind protection, staying dry, and not having gaps where snow and cold air sneak in.

And because the rental footprint includes Levi plus other northern hubs, you’re not forced into one rigid plan. If your itinerary shifts between places like Rovaniemi, Saariselkä, and Ruka, it’s easier to keep your gear situation under control.

What you actually get: jacket, trousers, mittens, snow boots

Levi: Rent Winter Clothing Sets - What you actually get: jacket, trousers, mittens, snow boots
The rental set is straightforward and genuinely useful. For unisex adult sizing, you get a jacket, winter trousers, mittens, and snow boots. For kids, the set changes a bit: they provide an overall (for younger sizes), plus mittens and snow boots, and the kids’ sizing structure shifts as children grow.

Here’s what’s included, in plain terms:

  • Winter jacket
  • Winter trousers
  • Snow boots
  • Mittens

Two practical notes make a difference once the temperature drops:

  1. Base layers are not included.
  2. The jacket and trousers are meant to be waterproof and windproof, which is what you want when you’re out waiting for northern lights or walking in blowing snow.

If you come without base layers, you can still stay comfortable in milder conditions, but for the coldest evenings you’ll likely feel the difference. Pack a thermal layer you trust (or plan to buy it before you arrive) so the rental set can do its job.

Also, the set is designed to be wearable in more than one situation. You’re not stuck dressing like it’s only for skiing. These pieces are described as a stylish alternative to the typical overall look, which is great if you want to get photos in town and not feel like you’re dressed only for the slopes.

Where you pick up: Levi store and other Lapland bases

Levi: Rent Winter Clothing Sets - Where you pick up: Levi store and other Lapland bases
Your meeting point in this plan is the Winterent shop in the Levi area. The address is Keskuskuja 4, 99130 Sirkka.

That’s useful because Sirkka is the hub many visitors use when they’re staying around Levi. You’re not guessing about where to go on arrival day. You have a clear pickup location, and you can also choose delivery and pickup to your hotel or accommodation for an additional fee.

The rental network also includes centrally located stores in:

  • Rovaniemi
  • Levi
  • Saariselkä
  • Ruka
  • Helsinki

So even if your Lapland trip starts or ends outside Levi, you’re not locked into hauling your own snow gear across multiple locations. The practical value is time saved and packing stress reduced.

If you’re deciding between pickup and delivery, think about your arrival rhythm. If you want to get moving fast when you land in the north, delivery can help. If you’d rather see the fit in person right away, pickup is the cleanest path.

The sizing system: what you share and how exchanges work

Levi: Rent Winter Clothing Sets - The sizing system: what you share and how exchanges work
One of the most annoying travel problems is realizing you packed the wrong size for the weather you’re about to face. This rental tries to prevent that by using your measurements.

When you book, they ask each participant for:

  • Name
  • Height (cm)
  • Weight (kg)
  • Shoe size (EU)
  • Age

That lets them prepare the right sizes in advance, which is exactly what you want for families and for anyone who’s not sure how winter clothing sizes run.

Here are the sizing ranges the rental lists:

  • Adults: jackets from 2XS to 7XL, shoes EU35 to EU49
  • Kids: overalls from 90 cm to 135 cm, thermal trousers from 140 cm to 164 cm
  • Kids gloves and shoes: EU23 to EU35

And if something still isn’t right, you’re not stuck. Size exchanges are free of charge at the store. One practical takeaway from real-world use of this kind of service: sizing mistakes happen, especially with boots or trousers. Having a swap option at your pickup point keeps a bad fit from turning into a miserable trip.

1 to 10 days: how to time your rental and avoid extra charges

You can rent for 1 to 10 days, and the price is for a 24-hour rental period. That sounds obvious, but it matters because you’re in a travel rhythm with check-in, check-out, and planned activities.

On the first day, you can pick up the clothes anytime during opening hours. That flexibility helps if your travel day runs late. On the last day, return timing matters. If you return after the 24-hour period, there’s a 13€ charge for an extra day.

So when I plan this type of rental, I do one simple thing: I set my start time to match when I’ll actually need the gear and I build a buffer for my final return. In winter, you don’t want to rush your last morning just to avoid fees.

For using the gear while you’re there, the rental is described for all kinds of Lapland time:

  • Northern lights hunting
  • City strolls in town
  • Outdoor winter activities
  • Even a night out in the Arctic

The practical point: the set is designed for movement. That matters when you’re wearing layers and you need to sit in cold air, walk on icy surfaces, or take photos without fighting your clothing.

Here's some more things to do in Kittila

Delivery and pickup to your hotel: best for tight schedules

Not everyone wants to stop at a shop during their travel day. If that’s you, the rental offers delivery and pickup to hotels and accommodations for an additional fee.

This is valuable when:

  • Your schedule is packed from morning tours to evening activities
  • You’re traveling with kids who need gear quickly
  • You’re switching between bases in Lapland
  • You want to start using the gear without making a separate errand trip

The mechanics are simple: contact the activity provider to arrange delivery and pickup. Then you deal with the gear like it’s part of your lodging, not a separate logistical task.

If you’re doing multiple days, delivery can also reduce the chance you forget something important like the mittens or miss a swap before going out.

Price and value: what $54 per person really buys you

The listed price is $54 per person, and it’s priced per 24-hour rental period. That’s a fair unit of measurement for winter travel because weather doesn’t wait for you to plan your shopping.

So is it good value? In many cases, yes—especially if you’d otherwise buy or bring heavy gear you won’t use again. A full set like this is exactly the kind of purchase you regret later. Winter boots alone can be expensive, and the bulky weight is brutal on planes and in rental cars.

Here’s the value logic I use:

  • If you’re only doing a short winter trip, renting often beats buying.
  • If you’re bringing the gear from home, you lose luggage space and energy planning.
  • If you have kids, you avoid the cost and hassle of buying gear that won’t fit next season.

The “gotcha” isn’t the rental price. It’s what’s not included: base layers. Plan for that cost separately (usually cheaper than buying full winter gear, but still something to budget).

If your trip is 1–3 days, you’ll notice the value fastest because you keep the gear needs contained. For longer trips up to 10 days, it’s still a good deal because the set stays consistent and you’re not piecing together odds and ends.

Comfort details that matter in the cold

Levi: Rent Winter Clothing Sets - Comfort details that matter in the cold
Winter gear isn’t just about warmth on paper. It’s about how you feel when you’re out there for hours.

This rental emphasizes:

  • Ultimate warmth from premium insulation
  • Waterproof and windproof performance
  • Freedom of movement for outdoor time and even town walking
  • A look that’s modern enough for non-ski moments

I pay attention to mittens and boots. Mittens are often the first thing that fails when you’re cold—thin ones leave your hands aching. And boots are the difference between enjoying an ice-lit street stroll and constantly adjusting your stance.

The set includes mittens and snow boots for adults and kids, so you’re not left hunting for the missing link once you’re already outside.

One more comfort tip: wear the right socks with your rental boots. The rental doesn’t specify socks, so use what you know works for winter footwear to prevent slipping and to keep feet warm.

A practical plan for your first rental day

Levi: Rent Winter Clothing Sets - A practical plan for your first rental day
Here’s the simple flow that keeps your day smooth.

  1. Book and provide measurements for each person: name, height, weight, shoe size, age.
  2. On your first day, pick up during opening hours (or coordinate hotel delivery).
  3. Do a quick fit check: jacket length, trouser length over boots, and mitten coverage.
  4. If anything’s off, remember that exchanges are free at the store.
  5. Use the kit right away. In Lapland, the biggest mistake is delaying until you’re already freezing.

If you’re heading out for northern lights, don’t underestimate how long you might stand still. Your rental set is designed for that kind of waiting. Just don’t skip your base layers, because that’s where cold often sneaks in.

Should you book the Levi winter clothing rental?

If your goal is to travel lighter and stay comfortable in real winter conditions, I’d book this type of rental. It’s especially worth it if:

  • You don’t want to buy bulky winter gear for one trip
  • You’re traveling with kids and need sizes handled carefully
  • You’re planning multiple winter activities and nights out in cold air
  • You want a smoother logistics plan with pickup or hotel delivery

Skip it only if you already own high-quality winter gear you trust and you’re sure it fits your current travel style. This rental also isn’t perfect if you’re expecting the set to include base layers—you’ll need to bring your own thermal layer plan.

Overall, the strongest case for booking is simple: you get a full, coordinated warm, waterproof, windproof winter kit in the Levi area, with support to get the right sizes and fix mistakes quickly.
