Our Favorite REI 4th of July Sale Deals
Big Agnes Copper Spur HV UL2: $318 (40% Off)
A favorite among our tent testers, this three-season tent is valued for its strength in an ultralight build (3 pounds, 2 ounces). The two-person design has two doors, two vestibules, a high-volume hub, and ripstop nylon fabric.
Plus, it’s also easy to set up thanks to details like the TipLok buckles, which help secure your poles in place. Vestibule doors and high fly vents offer different ways to create or tamper airflow. And interior loops create lots of stashing options to keep gear within reach.
If you’re looking for other tent deals, check out the 40% savings on MSR tents like the Hubba Hubba 2, or the time-tested and value-minded REI Co-op Half Dome SL 2+ with Footprint (down 30% to $244).
Oru Kayak Inlet Kayak: $719 (20% Off)
You don’t need a roof rack with this portable kayak. It folds and unfolds in minutes so you can carry it from a trunk to the water’s edge for setup. The Oru Kayak Inlet is designed to be nimble on flatwater, so get paddlin’!
The kayak’s materials are sturdy yet flexible, so it tracks well and maneuvers better than inflatable kayaks. The one-seater has a spacious cockpit that allows room for Fido. Unfolded, it is 9 feet and 8 inches long and weighs 20 pounds.
YETI Camino Carryall 35: $120 (20% Off for Members)
Members can save 20% on one full-price YETI cooler, like the Camino Carryall 35 tote.
Make any adventure’s dirty work a little easier. The Carryall is an all-purpose, waterproof tote that can shield contents from splashes or isolate dirty wet gear like suits or boots for the ride home. Additionally, an internal divider lets you do a bit of both.
YETI is known for its rugged take on products, hence the Camino Carryall is made from the brand’s ThickSkin shell, which is puncture-resistant and easy to wipe clean. A molded EVA bottom helps cushion the contents and hold the bag upright. CrossBar handles let you carry the tote close, while the standard longer handles are made for carrying over a shoulder.
Osprey Farpoint 55 & Fairview 55 Travel Packs: $165 (25% Off)
Osprey put a lot of its hiking know-how into these travel backpacks. The brand’s 4mm LightWire peripheral frame helps transfer the load from the harness to hipbelt while an internal framesheet distributes the load across the entire back panel.
The back panel has foam ridges covered in mesh to create airflow between the pack and your back. Padded handles make it easier to carry from the top or sides.
Its internal organization is made for travel, and a detachable daypack offers a smaller pack within a pack for streamlined mobility. Internal straps help hold certain gear in place, while a large panel zip lets you access the pack’s main compartment. Smaller zip pockets let you keep important items together and within easy reach.
Petzl Actik Core Headlamp: $64 (25% Off)
This headlamp will light the way during pre-dawn starts and after sunset, whether you’re running, trekking, or finding your way around camp. It has three white settings and a red light for navigating around camp. Plus, there’s a strobe signal for emergencies.
A hybrid design lets you run the headlamp on its 1,250 mAh CORE rechargeable battery or with three AAA batteries (not included).
A mixed beam lets you select flood and focused light to see things near and far. The headlamp pivots from its mount to point light in the right direction, and it can be worn around your neck for better light while working on tasks. The headband can be detached and washed, and it’s also reflective so others can see you at night or in low-light conditions.
Fjallraven x Specialized Riders Hybrid Short — Men’s & Women’s: $98 (30% Off)
A Fjallraven x Specialized collab for urban rides and bikepacking adventures. Fjallraven’s G-1000 Lite Eco Stretch has a four-way stretch for a less restrictive feel when pedaling. Other ride-friendly details include the reinforced crotch gusset and the roll-up reflective hems for added visibility.
The shorts have a wide waistband with mesh inside to prevent sweat buildup, plus two snap pockets on the thighs can hold gloves or other items, while the zippered hand pockets offer secure storage.
GSI Outdoors Bugaboo Backpacker Ceramic Cookset: $64 (25% Off)
This cookset includes two bowls, two insulated mugs, two Sip-It lids, a 2L pot with lid, a frypan, a pot gripper, and a stuff sack that doubles as a sink basin.
The Bugaboo frypan and pot have ceramic nonstick surfaces with finishes that protect from scratches and buildup. And conveniently, the Cascadian-series mugs nest securely inside the bowls, forming sets of matching colors, which you can then stash inside the 2L pot.
Balega Hidden Comfort No-Show Socks: $12 (25% Off)
Balega makes these Hidden Comfort socks with 200 needle-count fabric spun from extra-fine yarn. This creates a durable layer of cushioning in high-impact areas. The socks use Dryanimix fabric and mesh ventilation panels to wick sweat in key areas.
The toes are reinforced with hand-linked seamless construction — and while these are no-shows, a heel tab runs high to prevent rubbing or slipping inside your shoes.
Salsa Blackthorn Deore 12-Speed Mountain Bike: $1,759 (20% Off)
The Salsa Blackthorn Deore 12-Speed bike sports a balanced feel for all-mountain rides. It has a 6061-T6 aluminum frame that rides on a suspension with 140 mm of travel that stays active while braking. And dang, the fork has a 160mm suspension, too.
Salsa’s Rear Flip Chip adjusts the head tube angle and bottom bracket height for adapting the bike to different terrains, wheel sizes, and personal preferences. Plus, the 157 x 12mm rear hub spacing works with shorter chainstays (431-432 mm), more tire clearance, and other chainring options.
New bikes always need adjustments after breaking them in, and REI Co-op Members can enjoy 20% off services at REI Bike Shops.
