If you love the great outdoors or are gift-shopping for the outdoorsmen in your life, REI is a one-stop shop for all the best brands. REI notoriously forgoes a Black Friday event, presenting the #OptOutside campaign instead. But leading up to the day (and afterward with new deals launching on Saturday), the outdoor retailer runs limited-time savings on the brands you love, including Patagonia, Arc'teryx, The North Face, and more.
And, if you're looking to save even more, check out the deep, deep discounts at REI Outlet—a go-to favorite for Men's Health outdoor editors and writers. Everything from hiking backpacks to packable down jackets to the best camping gadgets is on sale for up to 50% off during this year's REI Cyber Sale.
Best REI Black Friday Deals
Ahead of Black Friday and Cyber Monday, many of the best-selling, brand-name outdoor gear items are likely to still be in stock. But you may not want to wait too long, as the most popular products are likely to sell out fast. To shop the entire sale, click the button below.
What's the Difference Between REI and REI Outlet?
Almost everyone who loves the outdoors knows that REI is ground-zero for gearing up for hiking, biking, kayaking, climbing, fishing—pretty much any type of adventure, really. REI Outlet is the retailer's dedicated discount section, a round-up of last season's gear and its famous flash sales. It's the single best place to shop if you're looking for the absolute best deals on the world's best outdoor brands. You'll find great deals year-round, but the deepest discounts are almost always during REI's early Black Friday and Cyber Week sale events. Don't forget to check back early and often as REI Outlet's inventory changes frequently. Sale prices can drop suddenly and things sell out fast!
How to Use an REI Co-Op Membership to Save More
REI offers many of its best perks and sale event access to REI Co-op members. Even if you're not a frequent REI shopper, it's worth the one-time $30 fee to join. While members receive a 10% dividend on most in-store and online purchases, they also get discounts on gear rentals and at the store's best annual sale events. That $30 can easily pay for itself in just one visit!
