REI's Anniversary Sale is happening today through May 28. We had our editors scour the merchandise to pick out the best stuff鈥攁ll of it discounted right now at least 20 percent off.
Patagonia P6 LoPro Trucker Hat ($22; 25 percent off)
I'm not one to dig deep into the alleged performance differences between various trucker hats. In my mind, they're all pretty much identical and they serve the same basic function: hide my sweaty ass helmet hair after a summer bike ride and keep the sun off my face. 聽does that, while also looking good. That's all I need, though the 25 percent off is a nice bonus. 鈥擜xie Navas, executive editor
Kelty Discovery 4 Tent ($99; 33 percent off)
If you're unsure that camping is right for your family, here's 聽to try. One hundred bucks gets the folks and the kids (or your kid and your dog) into a simple setup that holds for three seasons. Get out in it enough and maybe you'll discover you need to upgrade to a four-season tent鈥攐r not. 鈥擳asha Zenke, copy editor
Nuun Energy Tabs ($5; 25 percent off)
I am dependent on my pre-run coffee, but on really hot days or when I'm trying to be more conscientious about my caffeine intake, 聽are my substitute of choice. They add a little not-too-sweet fizz to water and they wake me up just fine. (Or maybe it's just the hydration and I should be pounding water instead of coffee every morning? Eh.) 鈥擡rin Berger, senior editor
Bic聽Sport Ace-Tec Cross Fit Stand Up Paddle Board聽($935; 15 percent off)
I love me a good SUP. I love it even more if it tracks cleanly and is as maneuverable as . For a bigger guy like me, balancing on a board this short takes a bit to get the hang of, but I've yet to paddle anything as nimble. 鈥擶ill Egensteiner, senior editor
REI Half-Dome 2-Plus Tent ($159; 30 percent off)
is an absolute classic. I've used it for years聽on sandy beaches, snowy high-alpine terrain, in Pacific Northwest downpours, and Utah desert heat. It's super roomy, lightweight for the price, and durable. 鈥擜bbie聽Barronian, assistant editor
Big Agnes Lulu 15 Sleeping Bag聽($135; 25 percent off)
I used 聽for all of my camping trips last summer, and it was perfect. It's comfy and warm, and packs down small if you need to carry it with you. It also comes in a shorter length, so you don't have to swim in extra fabric if you don't need it. 鈥擬olly Mirhashem, associate editor
Patagonia Nine Trails Tank ($24; 30 percent off)
I bought 聽with my REI dividend earlier this year and have been finding any and every excuse to wear it ever since. Work? Ice cream? Yoga class? You name it, and that shirt is probably on my body. 鈥擩enny Earnest, social media manager
Salomon Cairn Shorts ($34; 30 percent off)
I don't run, but I love 聽for sweaty workouts and warm day hikes. The internal liner also gives me the freedom to wear these shorts to yoga without fear of flashing someone. As a bonus, the pattern is fun but sophisticated, making it perfect for running errands or meeting friends for patio drinks. 鈥擩.E.
ADS Trail Dog First Aid Kit ($19; 25 percent off)
I already have 聽and love it. I bring it with me on all of my hiking, climbing, and camping missions. I haven't had to use it yet, but it gives me peace of mind to know that my dogs are safe if anything happens. I'm eyeing this sale as an excuse to buy a second one that can stay in my truck at all times so I'm always ready for an adventure with my four-legged companions. 鈥擜bigail Wise, online managing editor
Brooks England Cambium C17 ($97; 25 percent off)
Though sportier than Brooks England鈥檚 all-leather saddles like the iconic B17, 聽still features the company鈥檚 classic British good looks and durability. But perhaps the best feature this saddle offers is exceptional out-of-the-box comfort: The company鈥檚 leather versions are notorious for their long, sometimes grueling break-in periods. 鈥擭ick Hunt, associate editor
Patagonia Nano Puff Jacket ($140; 30 percent off)
I bought 聽a year ago, and it's one of the most versatile layers I own. 鈥擬.M.
Pearl Izumi Elite Thermal Knee Warmer ($33; 25 percent off)
Most roadie rules suck. But the knee-warmer rule doesn't. If it's cold enough to wear arm warmers, wear your damn knee warmers to ride fast and comfortably. For the last ten years, I've worn the same 聽and I cannot recommend them highly enough for those with gorgeous, toned thighs but slender calves. 鈥擲cott Rosenfield, digital editorial director
Big Agnes Copper Spur Hotel HV UL 3 Tent ($450; 25 percent off)
聽is a backpacker's dream, made with durable polyurethane-coated ripstop nylon fabric and reinforced seams that are tough as nails but light as a feather. The whole package is under five pounds. 鈥擝en Fox, associate editor
Garmin Edge 820 ($140; 30 percent off)
聽tracks speed, distance, and location, and pairs wirelessly with accessories like a heart rate monitor to collect more data. All the info is clearly displayed on the Garmin Connect app on your phone. 鈥擝.F.
Patagonia Black Hole 45L Duffel ($89; 25 percent off)
We've entered the golden age of the duffel. Waterproof models from Yeti and constant advances from brands like the North Face mean there is no lack of great options. Despite all this, I keep coming back to . This bag has been my go-to for years for its durability, just-right size, and outdoorsy looks. 鈥擲.R.
Nathan聽VaporZach Hydration Vest ($87; 30 percent off)
聽if you're running or hiking in the mountains. It's way lighter than a normal daypack, yet its two-liter capacity holds plenty of water and snacks for a long day outside. I tend to take this vest instead of a pack on pretty much all my weekend adventures鈥攊t enables me to move fast if I want to, while also being totally prepared for impromptu thunderstorms or picnics. 鈥擜.N. 聽
La Sportiva Nucleo High GTX Hiking Boots ($160; 20 percent off)
In this age of increasingly specialized hiking shoes, it's hard to find one boot that does it all. But succeeds, and that's why it took home a Gear of the Year award in 2017. Handsome nubuck leather and grippy Vibram soles coexist nicely whether stomping through puddles or tackling loose desert trails. 鈥擶.E.
