BKL Race Suit Lease/Buy Back Program
Program Overview
As we introduce our new BKL race suit design based upon the new Adult version, we are also introducing the BKL Race Suit Lease/Buy Back Program. In addition to a straight purchase to own option, we created this Lease/Buy Back option to help families manage the cost of Nordic skiing and to enable as many of our BKL skiers to have race uniforms as is possible. For this program, we simply ask that families order and pay the full price of their uniforms at the beginning of the season. At the end of the season, families participating in this program will return their suits to the club, at which time they will be refunded the difference between the purchase price and one season rental fee (~50% of the purchase price).
To participate, please follow these steps:
- Please email Lisa Burt by 11/21 that you want to participate in the Lease/Buy-Back Program. In your note please provide, name, address, e-mail and intended suit size order.
- Go to our Apparel page for details on how to order and pay for your suit.
- Suits will be available 5-6 weeks from order closure, so your prompt response to the order deadlines is appreciated.
- At the end of the season, return the suit to our Lease Coordinator Lisa Burt to collect your refund.
New Design Lease Costs & Rebates:
Youth Sizes: Suit Cost $110, Lease Fee $55, rebate upon return $55.
Adult Sizes: Suit Cost $160, Lease Fee $75, rebate upon return $85.
Sizing information can be found at:

Finally, please note there is a minimum order qty of 5 suits for both the Youth & Adult sizes. So even if you are on the fence, please considering getting a suit as it will help achieve our minimums for other club members who want a suit.
