For travelers from southern China visiting Harbin, the biggest dilemma is whether to bring heavy winter clothes. Buying a down jacket is only used once or twice a year, taking up space and being wasteful; renting, on the other hand, may cause concerns about ill-fitting items or limited options. In fact, Ice City Warm Sun has already solved all these problems, and has prepared a worry-free cold-weather gear solution specifically for southern tourists.
A Cost Guide: Renting Is Far More Cost-Effective Than Buying
Southerners wear thick down jackets at most once or twice a year. A basic model costs at least a few hundred yuan, and a better one costs thousands. It’s a waste to throw it away, and it takes up luggage space to bring it back. Our rental service is charged by the hour; if the rental period is less than 6 hours on the last day, it counts as half a day, and 6 hours or more counts as a full day—very flexible. For example, if you’re only traveling for 3 days, you can get a full set of cold-weather gear for just a few dozen yuan, which is way more cost-effective than buying, and you don’t have to haul bulky clothes around. We also sell individual items like cotton hats, gloves, and snow boots; even buying brand-new ones is cheaper than purchasing a down jacket alone, and you can freely mix and match sets of 2, 5, or 12 pieces, choosing as needed.
Worry-Free Family Trips, All Done via Mini Program
For family groups visiting Harbin, simply use the “Family Trip” entry in our mini program, which can accommodate 2 to 6 people. The head of the family only needs to fill in each person’s height, weight, and shoe size; the system will automatically match suitable styles, so you don’t have to guess sizes yourself. You can also remove unwanted gear, and after matching a set, you’ll pay the set price, plus you can claim tiered coupons and free exchange vouchers. Even if the size doesn’t fit, you can contact customer service to exchange it as long as the order hasn’t shipped—very convenient.
Simple Ordering Process, Thoughtful Pickup & Drop-Off
The first step in ordering is to confirm your rental period and select the start and end times; even a rental of just a few hours is charged by the hour, so you won’t waste money. Next, choose your pickup method: you can pick up items in person at our Central Street store, or opt for free delivery to your downtown hotel. Even if you arrive in Harbin late at night, you can get your gear right away. You can also pick up items at the 2nd-floor storage area of Harbin Taiping International Airport Terminal 2 with advance booking, and you can mail items back from the airport when you return—very flexible. All our gear is washed per guest, using professional dry cleaning just like hotel linens, so you don’t have to worry about hygiene. The deposit is only a formal guarantee; normal wear and tear, small scratches, or minor dirt won’t be deducted, and it will be refunded immediately after return, so you can travel with complete peace of mind.
