REI CoolMax Crew Socks: was $16 now $7
Nobody likes sweaty, hot feet. Avoid them with a pair of deeply discounted REI CoolMax Crew Socks. These bad boys wick away sweat and dry quickly. They're also made from recycled water bottles, so you can feel even better about what's on your feet.
Arc'teryx Merino Wool Low-Cut Socks: was $22 now $15
Available in three colorways, these wool socks are perfect for wearing under hiking boots and walking shoes as you head out on long treks.
Outdoor Research Echo Ubertube: was $20 now $14
Protect your neck and face from the sun's harmful rays with this lightweight, super-breathable, and versatile neck gaiter. It provides UPF 15+ sun protection and is also sweating-wicking and quick drying.
Nite Ize Radiant 170 Rechargeable Headlamp: was $24 now $16
Quality headlamps aren't just for camping, they also make a great addition to any emergency kit. I also use one frequently for chores around the house where extra illumination is warranted, like searching for aphids to eliminate off my houseplants. Best of all, this one is rechargeable, so you don't need a zillion packs of batteries to power it.
REI Active Pursuits T-Shirt (men's): was $29 now $20
I absolutely adore REI's house brand apparel and own half a dozen or more t-shirts similar to this one. Super soft, lightweight, and sweat-wicking, these tees are perfect for hitting the trails, the gym, or simply lounging around in. They also provide UPF 50+ sun protection.
REI Collapsible Packing Cubes: was $32 now $22
I own this exact set of REI Packing Cubes — also picked up on sale, of course — and have used them on many occasions for trips short and long, including a recent ten-day cross-country excursion. They're tough-built and come in two handy sizes. One zipper opens and closes the main compartment, and a secondary one expands and collapses additional storage space.
Hydro Flask Tumbler with Press-In Straw Lid: was $32 now $22
This lovely Lupine Hydro Flask Tumbler is 30% off and includes a matching straw lid for good measure. Sip your favorite beverage in style without fear of it getting cold or warm. Vacuum-sealed walls provide excellent insulating power and 28 ounces of volume means fewer trips back to the fridge. It's also dishwasher safe.
Camelbak Insulated Stainless-Steel Water Bottle: was $35 now $23
For even more storage capacity, you can also take 32% off this handsome, Wild Strawberry Camelbak Insulated Water Bottle. It boasts 32 ounces of liquid volume, vacuum-insulated walls that are guaranteed to keep your bevy chilled for up to 32 hours, and a nifty leakproof bite valve for easy sipping.
Columbia Steens Mountain Half-Snap Pullover (men's): was $45 now $30
The calendar may read July but before you know it, fall will be rolling on it, and with it, chillier temps. Be one step ahead of the changing seasons with this well-priced, ridiculously soft, and cozy Columbia fleece. It features classic styles with four snap closures up top, an orange/red collar, and lowkey Columbia branding.
Cotopaxi Tech Bucket Hat (unisex): was $40 now $29
Who knew sun protection could be so darn fashionable? Cotopaxi is a high-end outdoor brand perhaps best known for its vibrant, fun aesthetic and the Tech Bucket Hat is no exception. It features an adjustable chin strap and is a one-size-fits-all affair. It also doesn't lose its shape when wet.
Merrell Hydro Moc Shoes (men's): was $60 now $47
Forget Crocs, these Merrell waterproof shoes are way cooler looking and just as functional. Made from cushioned EVA foam and designed to cradle your dogs in comfort, the Hydro Mocs are ideal for hitting the beach, lake, river, or pool in style.
Arc'teryx Cormac Downword T-Shirt (men's): was $70 now $48
This top-rated tee is 30% off. We'd hurry, as this item is discontinued. Available in a range of sizes and four colorways, this T-shirt is perfect for mountain activities, trail running, or hiking.
REI Trailmade Rain Jacket (women's): was $69 now $48
A quality rain jacket never goes out of style, especially a lightweight, packable option like the REI Trailmade. For less than $50 you're getting a well-constructed shell with two layers of waterproof material, an adjustable hood and hem, zippered hand pockets, and an inner mesh liner for breathability.
REI Trailmade Rain Jacket (men's): was $69 now $48
Dudes can also get their hands on the REI Trailmade Rain Jacket deal for the same great sub-$50 price. I've personally worn this sucker out and about in Seattle downpours — we know a thing or two about rain here — without so much as a drop of moisture getting in. It also looks real fresh in Ryegrass Green/Woodland Olive (shown).
Eno DoubleNest Hammock: was $74 now $49 @ REI
The Eno DoubleNest is designed for two people with a maximum weight load of 400 pounds and 9.5 feet of length to stretch out on. Highly packable this hammock weighs a mere 19 ounces and compacts down to about the size of a water bottle. Plus, all the mounting hardware needed to get lounging is included.
