At 52 Hike Challenge we love REI, they have great quality gear and a phenomenal customer service - and we've been members for over 20 years.  They have recently had some big updates to their membership, which means more benefits, and we thought you might want to know about these great perks!

An REI Co-op Membership is the best way to experience the co-op. They believe in sharing—members enjoy an annual reward in addition to a lifetime of benefits.

With an REI membership you get:

• Members get 10% back annually on eligible purchases. (10% is typical but not guaranteed.) Exclusions apply.

NEW and Updated Benefits

• Early access, limited editions, special offers, one-of-a-kind collabs and more—on new gear every month and just for members.
• Free U.S. standard shipping—no minimum purchase amount required. Exclusions apply.
• Members get to shop and trade in used gear that’s ready for more life outside. 
• They've doubled the shop services discount for members to 20%. Plus, enjoy free bicycle flat-tire repair, free ski or snowboard machine wax service* and up to 33% off rentals. 

*The service is not available in all locations. Check the store locator for participating stores. Gear must be in rust-free & clean condition to qualify.
