Decathlon pilots free sports gear lockers in Czech parks with YourLOX, promoting fitness access through smart tech.
Bringing Sport to the Streets with Technology
Decathlon is redefining urban fitness in the Czech Republic with a game-changing initiative. In partnership with startup YourLOX, they’ve introduced digital lockers in public parks across Prague and Brno. These smart lockers allow locals to borrow sports equipment for free—yes, free—for up to 90 minutes.
From basketballs to dumbbells, anyone can scan a code via the dedicated app, select the gear they need, and unlock a locker on the spot. Once finished, users simply return the gear and upload a photo to confirm its condition.
A Pilot That Merges Tech, Community, and Wellness
While still a pilot project, this initiative showcases how outdoor technology can promote healthier lifestyles in city spaces. It’s part of Decathlon’s broader mission to democratize access to sports and encourage spontaneous activity in urban environments.
Maintenance? No problem. Decathlon has promised regular servicing of the equipment to ensure top-notch quality and user satisfaction. 🛠️✨
Turning Parks into Playgrounds of Possibility
This innovative move doesn’t just provide fitness equipment—it creates a shared experience that strengthens community ties. It also aligns with other global outdoor campaigns that turn public spaces into arenas of creativity and well-being.
Could this model work in your city? The idea is simple, scalable, and socially impactful—proving that sometimes all you need to get moving is a little push and a good ball.
