Massive REI clearance sale takes up to 50% off Arc'teryx, Patagonia, Yeti and more — 13 deals I'd snag now

From Arc'teryx to Patagonia, REI is one of my go-to retailers for deals on major brands. With the first Labor Day sales of the season now live, REI is taking up to 50% off apparel, sneakers, and more during its current sale. For example, REI has Patagonia apparel/accessories on sale from $15. The sale includes summer clearance items like t-shirts and trucker hats as well as plenty of items for fall, including insulated jackets and fleece hoodies. I don't personally own any Arc'teryx gear, but the Tom's Guide fitness team swears by the brand and right now REI has Arc'teryx gear on sale from $24. This includes tank tops, base layer bottoms, and long-sleeve shirts for men and women. REI's current sale also includes discounts on The North Face, Columbia, and Brooks. Below I've vetted 13 of the best deals you can shop right now. YETI sale: deals from $17 @ REIFrom water bottlers to travel mugs, REI has Yeti accessories on sale from $17. It's a small sale, but it covers most of the basics and also includes a discount on the Yeti backpack. Slide into something a little more comfortable with these North Face sandals. Padding on top and contoured cushion below make these slides extremely comfortable. They're great for days on the go or when your feet are feeling a little sore. The name of these shorts says it all! The Wander Shorts allow you to stay cool, comfortable and dry while exploring thanks to their sweat-wicking and water-repellent properties. They're also built with added stretch and tons of performance features. Named after a Peruvian peak, this ¼-zip, acts as a light yet warm barrier to the elements on chilly hikes. It's ideal for backpacking, climbing and other activities where weight saving is important. Plus, its bright blue hue is perfect for summer. The Patagonia Endless Run Shorts are made of quick-drying fabric that not only keep you dry, but also allow for stretch and movement. There's also a side pockets and a back pocket to carry your snacks and phone. Get ready to run speed, freedom and performance when wearing these shorts. From the gym to the trails, you can feel confident that the shorts will keep up. They feature abrasion-resistant fabric and have excellent stretch for comfort. The Patagonia Pack Out Tights are ideal for running errands, lounging around the house, working out, and everything in between.

Whether you're breaking a sweat at the gym or on the trails, this light and airy t-shirt will be your best friend. It has an antimicrobial treatment to resist odor and keep you smelling fresh. Patagonia's Synchilla range is famous for a reason. This fabric is so soft, it almost feels like the chinchilla for which it was named (I assume, anyway). The body fabric is made from recycled polyester, so you know your jacket is helping the environment too! It's available in orange in S and XL, XXL in brown. The Arahi 7 is a stability shoe that offers extra support for runners with flat feet thanks to the J-Frame in its midsole. It's comfortable and durable. The Mantis Backpack is lightweight, durable, and offers a 26-liter capacity. Its water repellent finish repels moisture and it has an inner sleeve for a laptop or hydration bladder (not included). We also like its adjustable sternum strap and removable waistbelt. Designed with mountain climbers in mind, this handsome fitted jacket is ultra-breathable and stretchy. Made from Polartec Powder Dry Fleece, it also provides plenty of insulating power, despite weighing just under 9 ounces. Like the Delta fleece jacket above, the hooded half-zip version is built for maximum mobility, breathability and sweat-absorbing prowess. Ideal for a range of outdoor adventures, this cozy fleece provides ample insulating power despite its lightweight design.

Peru hopes to attract investment with tax cuts and sustain agro-export boom, minister says

By Marco Aquino LIMA (Reuters) -Peru hopes to increase agricultural investment with a significant reduction in income tax for large export companies, the sector's minister told Reuters on Monday. The Peruvian Congress last week passed a law that reduces income tax to 15% from the current 29.5% for large agricultural exporters over the next 10 years. Medium-sized businesses would pay 1.5% income tax, while small businesses would be exempt from the tax. Peru expects agricultural sales to surpass mining, considered the country's economic engine, by 2050. Peru is the world's third-largest copper producer. "This will allow us to attract investment," said Agriculture Minister Ángel Manero in a telephone interview, of the new law. The country recorded $12.8 billion in agricultural exports last year, and Manero expects increased fruit shipments to drive sales to about $15 billion by 2025. The star product of Peruvian agricultural exports is blueberries, which are exported primarily to the United States and Europe. Minister Manero also highlighted the sharp increase in sales of table grapes, avocados, cocoa, and mangos. Peru has a portfolio of approximately $24 billion in largely public-private irrigation projects to expand its agricultural area, primarily on the country's coast, to more than 1 million hectares (2.5 million acres). Manero said that eight projects worth $11 billion have been launched from that portfolio. Manero noted that the next market to conquer is India, with which a free trade agreement is expected to be signed this year. Peru last week announced a new trade deal with Indonesia.

Peachtree Group Closes $176.5 Million CPACE Loan for Renovated Rio Hotel & Casino Tower in Las Vegas

ATLANTA, August 18, 2025--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Peachtree Group ("Peachtree") has originated the largest credit transaction in its history, closing a $176.5 million retroactive Commercial Property Assessed Clean Energy ("CPACE") loan for Dreamscape Companies' recently renovated 2,520-room Rio Hotel & Casino ("Rio") in Las Vegas, Nev. The deal, finalized in less than 60 days, ranks among the largest CPACE financings ever completed in the United States. The Rio, now under the Destinations by Hyatt brand, is a casino resort featuring two hotel towers, Ipanema and Masquerade, connected by a casino, restaurants and retail establishments. Renovations completed in 2024 included a full transformation of the Ipanema Tower guest suites, a reimagined casino floor and significant upgrades to multiple food and beverage venues. The comprehensive property improvement plan also delivered exterior enhancements, modernization of the central heating and cooling plant, electrical infrastructure upgrades and renovations to the convention center. "This deal highlights an inflection point for CPACE, with some of the nation's largest financial institutions consenting to its use because they see the clear benefit to the capital stack," said Jared Schlosser, head of originations and CPACE for Peachtree. "By closing quickly on a marquee hospitality asset, we were able to strengthen the position of both the owner and its lenders." The CPACE loan retroactively funded the renovations enabling the owners to pay down their senior loan. Retroactive CPACE funding offers a distinct advantage by allowing 100% of the proceeds to be reimbursed for completed project costs. "This transaction is not only a historic milestone for Peachtree Group, but also a testament to the ecosystem we have built over the past 18 years," said Greg Friedman, managing principal and CEO of Peachtree. "Through our vertically integrated platform, deep expertise and disciplined approach, we have developed the infrastructure to be a leader in the private credit space. Our ability to deliver speed, creativity and certainty of execution positions us to provide capital solutions that create value for our investors and partners across market cycles." The CPACE market has surpassed $10 billion in cumulative U.S. originations in just over a decade, according to the C-PACE Alliance, with strong growth expected as more institutional owners and lenders recognize its value. "We see tremendous opportunity ahead for retroactive CPACE and its use in funding new commercial real estate development," Schlosser said. "It's an attractive alternative to more expensive forms of capital." Peachtree is one of the most active CPACE lenders in the country, with more than $1.5 billion in originations. The firm's credit platform spans CPACE, bridge, mezzanine and construction lending, providing creative capital solutions across market cycles. About Peachtree Group Peachtree Group is a vertically integrated investment management firm specializing in identifying and capitalizing on opportunities in dislocated markets, anchored by commercial real estate. Today, the company manages billions in capital across acquisitions, development and lending, augmented by services designed to protect, support and grow its investments.
