How John Lewis' kids clothing rental service means families can kit out children for £18

Clothing your children might not be as expensive as it previously was now John Lewis is offering shoppers the chance to rent clothes.

The high street retailer has launched a scheme alongside clothes sharing company The Little Loop where parents can rent seven items at a time, which can later be swapped for a new design or bigger size. It works as a subscription service from just £18 a month and was thought up as a means to help budgeting families keep kids looking smart during the cost of living crisis, while still being able to put food on the table.

The cheapest £18 subscription buys 100 credits. Examples of what could be bought, picked out by The Express, include a gingham dress costing £19.45 would be available for 13 credits, and dinosaur-print joggers which retail for £9.50 could be rented for seven credits.
