REI’s Labor Day sale has begun, and the retailer is offering up to 30% off items like sleeping bags, tents, clothing and more. The deals are available in stores and online and the sale ends on September 1.

“REI is where you invest in gear you’ll actually use for years. Labor Day sales are the moment to grab tents, hiking boots, performance outerwear, and camping basics,” says Stephanie Carls, RetailMeNot’s retail insights expert. “The pricing is straightforward and the quality holds up, plus their return policy makes the investment feel safer.”

The best budget rain jacket you can buy, REI's Rainier Jacket is impressively waterproof and reasonably long-lasting for $70. The durable water repellent (DWR) is PFAS-free, but still pretty good. You also get taped seams and an adjustable hood, two nice features you generally don't find in jackets this cheap.
