Join REI as it closes its doors on Black Friday (again) to #OptOutside.

It’s amazing what a couple of hours can do for your sense of well-being. Nature walks in the rain, coffee on your favorite bench, maybe your first hike — they can all be restorative.

While things may look a little different this year, REI will, as always, close its doors on Black Friday to encourage others to get outside. Being outdoors makes us feel good — awesome even — and human. So get out there and enjoy it.

This video will inspire you to leave your comfort zone and seek new adventures that exist right outside your front door.
