Solidify summer camping plans with REI's sale on tents, sleeping bags, and more
Save up to 50%: REI is offering up to 50% off camping gear including tents, sleeping bags, outdoor face masks, coolers, and more as of March 30.
The U.S. is likely on the verge of its second Covid summer camping boom.
Many camping grounds and hiking trails were unprecedentedly swamped in June through September of 2020. For obvious reasons, the first lockdown had people itching to get outside. A year later, the level of antsy has doubled.
Anyone who's planning to keep their warm-weather getaways safe and outdoorsy should check out REI's current camping gear sale. Tents, sleeping bags, heavy-duty coolers, special outdoor face masks, and more are up to 50% off. Here are a few of our favorite deals:
Igloo Mission Cooler (72 quarts) — $134.93 (save $45.02)
A cooler that actually keeps stuff cold? Groundbreaking. Ice is claimed to last up to five days thanks to the Ultratherm insulation lining the Igloo Mission Cooler's lid and body. (Reviews confirm that the Igloo had their back for their whole trip.) This 72-quart model is less than half the price of Yeti's 75-quart Tundra cooler.
Outdoor Research Essential Face Mask Kit — $14.99 (save $5.01)
Despite vaccine progress throwing us some crumbs of hope, masks will still be a good idea on crowded trails. Wearing one made with sweat-wicking fabric, like these ones from Outdoor Research, can make the experience more bearable. Three filters are included.
Kelty Cosmic Down 0 Sleeping Bag — $184.73 (save $65.22)
Prepare for the chilly nights following scorchers with an insulated sleeping bag from Kelty. 600-fill-power DriDown water-resistant down and silky nylon taffeta work to keep you warm, dry, and a little bit luxurious.
