northhe shoulder season not only offers some of the best hiking conditions of the year, but it’s also one of the best times to take advantage of deals on past-season styles for hiking gear and clothing.
These are some of REI’s best clearance deals for hikers right now, including up to 50% off past-season styles from Arc’teryx, Patagonia, and more. The nature of the clearance section is such that these deals are only valid while stocks last, and highly sought after brands like Arc’teryx and Patty tend to sell out fast, so quick.
40% discount Arc’teryx Delta Men’s Hoodie
Offer $132 (Reg. $220)
This popular 9-ounce fleece is designed for climbing and comes complete with a helmet-compatible dive hood, but works just as well as a hiking fleece midlayer. It looks great.
51% discount Patagonia Capilene Cool Daily Sun Hoodie for Men
Offer $32 (Reg. $65)
This is the peak of hiking for many hikers. UPF resistant, full coverage, breathable, comfortable.
50% discount Danner 2650 Women’s Trail Shoes
Offer $95 (Reg. $190)
Despite their suede upper, these PCT-inspired hiking shoes are remarkably lightweight, at just 18 ounces per pair. Only the colorful version shown above is on clearance, but inventory looks good right now.
Up to 25% discount Jetboil Rapid Cooking System
Offer $108 (Reg. $145)
The energy-efficient, fast-boiling built-in backpacking stove setup of your dreams is almost $40 off right now, as long as you don’t mind a cozy camo-print pot.
42% discount Arc’teryx Rho Women’s Hooded Undershirt
Offer $80 (Reg. $140)
Arc’teryx somehow always manages to make their clothing look 25% more stylish than the average garment, and the Rho Hooded Base Layer is no exception. It is a long-sleeved synthetic t-shirt with anti-odor treatment, roll neck and hood for added warmth. It will make you look and feel like a beautiful elf queen.
43% discount Petzl Tikka Headlamp
Offer $20 (Reg. $35)
It’s a good lighthouse. It will do everything you need as a backpacker and doesn’t weigh too much.
Up to 50% discount Patagonia Airshed Pro Women’s Jersey
Offer $69 (Reg. $145)
At just 3.3 ounces, this pullover adds just a touch of lightweight warmth to your setup with minimal weight penalty. The dark gray color shown above is 50% off and the tan color is currently 30% off. Inventory looks good as of this writing, but that could change quickly.
25% discount Big Agnes Limited Copper Spur 3 with footprint
Offer $487 (Reg. $650)
This limited edition version of the beloved Copper Spur backpacking tent is almost sold out and will not be restocked. It’s several ounces lighter than the standard Copper Spur UL and is currently on sale for over $160 off.
21% discount Altra Experience Wild 2 trail running shoes for men
Offer $110 (Reg. $140)
The Experience Wild is a sleek, lightweight trail runner that has been gaining traction (hehe) in the hiking world in recent years. Backpackers wear a lot of shoes, so getting a few pairs on clearance is a smart move if you know your preferred style and size.
25% discount REI Flexlite Air Camp Chair
Offer $75 (Reg. $100)
For hikers who appreciate the finer things in life, this compact, lightweight camping chair is now on clearance (only the chartreuse color shown above).
30% discount Big Agnes Fly Creek HV Carbon 2
Sale $1,039 (Reg. $1,600)
For those who want to be ultralight but without sacrificing the reliability of a freestanding tent from one of the biggest names in the business. I’m also including this one on the list for fun, because it’s not every day that the savings on your ultralight tent purchase are enough to buy another entire ultralight tent (this thing is almost $600 off, which means this is probably the best chance you’ll have to buy one if you’ve had your eye on it).
