About The Mercer Club
The Mercer Club is e-commerce's first-ever men’s rental service offering luxury and streetwear fashions at affordable pricing— think of it as Rent the Runway for men. Founded on the principle that fashion should be affordable and accessible, The Mercer Club aims to deliver an assortment of clothing, shoes and accessories to fulfill all a man's wardrobe needs, helping them stay on trend while considering their budget. Customers can rent pieces from well-known streetwear brands such as Yeezy, Nike and Supreme or luxury designers such as Gucci, Margiela, Acne and Balenciaga for as little as $25 a day or a monthly subscription for $75 a month. With the subscription plan, renters get 2 items at a time and swap out each week for another set of 2 items. The process is seamless from beginning to end— after placing an order, items arrive in 2-3 days in a custom box with a prepaid return shipping label. Our specialized team takes care of any laundering on your behalf and minor wear and tear is covered by us.
