The rental period is from August 1st (Thursday) to August 27th (Tuesday), 2024, but please note that the number of uniforms in stock is limited.

In addition, in past years, there have been people who have made reservations for academic gown rentals but canceled at the last minute. This leads to excess inventory, so please refrain from doing this.
