REI’s Anniversary Sale is the biggest sale of the year. The annual event discounts hundreds of incredible outdoor products. We hand-picked the best gear and deals for your shopping pleasure.
It’s worth noting that coupons are available to REI members. If you’re a member, you can get 20% off one full-price item and an extra 20% off one REI Outlet item using the coupon code ANNV20.
This is a great chance to save on any wishlist gear that isn’t discounted during the sale. The sale days run from May 15 to 25, but the best gear sells out quickly, so we suggest you shop the REI sale early.

Half-Off Deals at the REI Anniversary Sale
All Nalgene Water Bottles: 50% Off
No hike is complete without hydration, and a Nalgene is a light, durable solution. This 32-fluid-ounce water bottle is a no-frills bottle that stands up to drops and bumps, but there are plenty of sizes on sale now. Plus, it’s available in a number of colors and designs.
REI Roadtripper 40L Duffel: $22 (50% Off)
Clocking in at less than 25 bucks, this duffel is an amazing deal. The heavy-duty CORDURA fabric is rugged enough that it can take a beating as checked luggage and keep on packing. The shoulder straps can easily be removed when not in use.

Patagonia Houdini Jackets: From $69 (Up to 30% Off)
The Houdini is a lightweight and packable wind jacket that “disappears” into your pack when not in use. We’ve brought the Houdini on hiking, biking, and climbing trips for years and can say that it’s versatile and downright awesome. You can also save big on a bunch of other Patagonia gear during the A-Sale.
All Arc’teryx Gear: 25% Off
Arc’teryx makes premium gear that works as well on a mountaintop as it does on a day hike. For good reason, it’s expensive and doesn’t go on sale often. All full-price Arc’teryx gear is at least 25% off right now, but it’s limited to in-stock items. Get it before it’s gone!
Black Diamond ReVolt Headlamp: $49 (25% Off)
A headlamp is another versatile piece of gear that everyone should own. The ReVolt shines with 300 lumens and has different light settings as well as the all-important red light. Plus, it’s rechargeable. Get one for camping season, your go bag, or for around the house.

Smartwool Socks: 25% Off
All Smartwool socks are 25% off until May 25, so stock up now. The Smartwool Hiking sock (above) is a humble hiking sock: It’s not flashy, but it will certainly get the job done. Merino wool works wonders and makes socks comfortable and soft, mile after mile. And if you’re backpacking, these should be your go-to because of wool’s natural anti-stink properties.
