Overview

  • All Decathlon brand models sold between June 9 and September 14 qualify for full gift card refunds regardless of wear or damage.
  • Shoppers must present proof of purchase and be Decathlon members when returning tents by the September 14 deadline.
  • Collected tents will supply Decathlon’s Second Life programme to be refurbished or repurposed, promoting a circular economy.
  • A typical single-use tent contains as much plastic as 9,000 straws or 200 bottles, underscoring the campaign’s environmental drive.
  • Broadcaster Vick Hope and sustainability leader Chris Allen are backing the campaign to cultivate more responsible camping habits.
