Buying new is not necessarily the only solution when it comes to clothing, home textiles and footwear items. One can also consider second-hand purchase, barter, or rental. Regarding the latter option, a survey conducted in 2018 revealed that a large proportion of the people who did not resort to it had doubts about the hygiene of the products. Half of the respondents did not spontaneously think about it.
