All of our recommendations below are based on our previous coverage or are highly rated on Rei.

Best footwear deals

Saucony x Rei Ride 17 Road-Running Shoes

Saucony makes some of our favorite running shoes for women, and the Ride 17 road-running shoes, which are also on sale in men’s sizes, have a ventilated mesh upper and high cushioning on the soles, according to the brand; the upper helps cut down on sweating and the sole makes running on firm surfaces less harsh.

Hoka Men’s Kaha 2 Gtx Hiking Boots

While Hoka might be best known for its running shoes, the brand also makes highly rated hiking boots, many of which are currently on sale. The Kaha 2 Gtx boots have a 4.2-star average rating from 497 reviews on Rei, and have waterproof leather uppers, rubber soles that provide traction, sturdy metal hooks for securing laces and abrasion-resistant toe caps and heel tabs, according to the brand. The shoes hit just above the ankle and come in men’s sizes eight to 13.

Salomon Speedcross 6 Men’s Trail-Running Shoes

If you prefer running on terrain that’s somewhat uneven, like dirt or gravel, a trail-running shoe like the Salomon Speedcross sneakers could benefit you. The sneakers, which have a 4.5-star average rating from 355 reviews on Rei, come in four colorways in both regular and wide styles. The outsoles have lugs that provide grip and traction to make running in wet or bumpy ground more secure. The insoles have both cushioning and energy return, which means they make it easier to repeatedly lift the feet off the ground, according to the brand.

Best apparel deals

The North Face Women’s Evolution Oversized Crew Sweatshirt

This sweatshirt, which has a 4.7-star average rating from 156 reviews at Rei, is ideal for casual activities like morning walks or sitting by the water. It has an oversized fit, dropped shoulders and balloon-style sleeves, so it’s meant to be both loose and breathable. The cuffs, however, are slightly elastic so the sleeves should sit comfortably at your wrists and won’t completely cover your hands.

Rainier Men’s Rain Jacket

A rain jacket makes it easy to do outdoor activities you love, regardless of the weather. The jacket, which has a 4.5-star average rating from over 40 reviews at Rei, is waterproof and windproof (up to 60 miles per hour), according to the brand, and it has an adjustable hood, so you can stay dry and protected during downpours or wind-heavy storms. It gets its waterproof capabilities from the ripstop nylon, which blocks out moisture. Additionally, the jacket has two zippered hand pockets, underarm zippers to release heat and adjustable cuffs and hem to keep the elements out.

Cotopaxi Women’s Teca Full-Zip Fleece Hoodie

Summer sales are the perfect time to stock up on fall essentials, like this fleece hoodie from Cotopaxi. It has hand pockets on the front to safeguard essentials like keys and wallets, while the hood keeps your head, neck and ears warm. The hoodie has a 4.7-star average rating from 125 reviews on Rei and comes in three different colorways.
