REI's 4th Of July Sale Is Coming Up—Here's What We Know So Far

Every year, REI hosts a 4th Of July Sale where outdoor enthusiasts can save on gear and apparel from top brands like Teva and The North Face, as well as the retailer's own in-house designs. Typically, REI's 4th Of July Sale kicks off in the weeks leading up to the holiday and unlike its member-only events, it's open to everyone. That said, members usually get a few extra perks like exclusive discounts on items that aren't included in the general sale. Here's everything we know so far about the upcoming REI 4th Of July Sale. The official details for this year's event have yet to be released, but there are a few predictions we can make based on years past. Not to mention, there are already some early deals worth checking out, like 22% off our favorite fitness tracker and 20% off this Yeti French press. Up ahead, find everything we know so far about REI's 4th Of July Sale. REI hasn't released the dates for its 2025 4th Of July Sale yet. That said, the sale typically starts near the end of June and runs through the holiday itself. Last year's sale started June 21 and ran through July 4. REI's 4th of July Sale typically lasts around two weeks. In 2024, it ran for exactly 14 days, while the year before was a slightly shorter 12-day event. We'll know more when REI releases this year's dates. Yes, REI's 4th Of July Sale is usually open to the public. That said, REI Co-op members usually receive special coupons for full-priced items or brands that are excluded from the main sale, like Yeti and Birkenstock. If you're interested in joining for these perks, it costs $30 to become a lifetime REI Co-op member. REI The Garmin Venu 3 is our favorite fitness tracker overall. It's accurate, easy to use and offers advanced health features, like sleep coaching and post-workout recovery insights. You can try it out in black for 22% off through the end of the month. REI Versatility is king when you're on the trail. These dual-purpose shorts are made of a durable, quick-drying fabric and feature two hand pockets and a zippered back pocket to stash valuables. They'll keep you dry and protected from the sun while you're hiking and can double as a bathing suit if you come across a swimming hole. REI A multitool is exactly what it sounds like: a pocket-sized tool that can tackle a variety of tasks. Leatherman is one of the most well-known multitool brands, and its Wave Plus boasts an impressive array of features, including two types of pliers, wire cutters, knives, scissors, a bottle opener and more. The best-selling model is 20% right now—perfect for a Father's Day gift. REI There's nothing quite like a hot cup of coffee on a cold, dewy morning. This Yeti French press can brew two to four cups of coffee and is made of durable, rust-resistant kitchen-grade stainless steel. The Key Lime colorway of this French Press is currently on sale.

It's made of a breathable, 2-way stretch fabric that dries quickly and features a zippered chest pocket and rolled-forward shoulder seams to prevent chaffing from hiking packs. Three patterns are on sale in sizes small through XXL. REI There's no better way to stay hydrated throughout the day than always having cold water at your fingertips. This popular tumbler holds 40 ounces of liquid and is vacuum insulated to keep it ice cold all day. Two colorways are currently on sale for 40% off. REI It may seem counterintuitive to purchase an insulated jacket in summer, but sometimes that's when you find the best deals. Whether you're planning a cold-weather escape or just thinking ahead to winter, this North Face jacket is an extremely popular find. The design is water-repellent and will keep you warm, even when wet. The jacket also packs down into its own front pocket for easy, compact storage. REI Perfect for picnics or star-gazing, this Yeti blanket is soft, waterproof and machine washable for easy cleanup. The brand also made it 'pet-protected' with a material that repels dirt, burrs and pet hair. This discount is only available in the pictured blue above. REI Summer sandals don't get more classic than a pair of Tevas. This minimalist design is quick-drying, durable and adjustable. The shoe is also treated with a peppermint-based anti-odor treatment to keep you feeling fresh, even after a long day on your feet. The 24% discount is available in three colors and most sizes.

The North Face Women's Winter Warm Pro Pants I love sharing a good off-season deal, and that's why these pants from The North Face make the cut.

It's the best all-around option if you're looking to balance fitness features with other tech you'd use outside the workout class. Its multiday battery life supports text and app and call notifications, plus all the run-tracking capabilities you'd expect.
