REI's 4th of July sale is filled with great deals on all kinds of camping gear from bestselling tents from The North Face to special discounts on Yeti coolers, but many shoppers are flocking toward the retailer's affordable but high-quality Trailmade hiking apparel collection. With up to 50% off the line's trail shorts, hiking pants, and other styles, prices have never been better. That's also true for the Trailmade Rain Jacket, and it just dipped below $40.
The REI Co-op Trailmade Rain Jacket is now on sale for just $35—a 50% discount on the normal $70 price. These top-rated jackets are very popular among REI shoppers, having earned over 80 five-star ratings and a spot among the bestselling products during the 4th of July sale. The jacket comes in sizes small to 3XL and is available in a variety of colors, including black, yellow, teal, and green, but some have started to sell out.
The REI Co-op Trailmade Rain Jacket has become a favorite among hikers and campers due to its unique technology and high quality. The durable water-repellent coating helps prevent water from saturating the fabric while the interior of the jacket is lined with mesh, which provides breathability and airflow so the jacket does not become hot or stuffy. With a unique two-layer waterproofing system, the rain jacket stays dry even in tough weather situations. It weighs a mere 14.1 ounces, making it very lightweight and easy to store. It's also machine washable and can be tightly folded when not in use to minimize space in a pack or suitcase.
One of the jacket's standout features is its durability, even in the toughest of circumstances. “Just one use and you’ll be praying for rain,” one shopper shared, eager to wear their new jacket. “Sturdy fabric, but easily folds for backpack or luggage. Pockets stay dry as well, and it is easy to wash. I used them in a complete downpour.”
While many rain jackets can be stiff and cumbersome, this rain jacket maintains a high amount of flexibility which makes it perfect for travelers or packing. “The coat fits well and is very comfortable to wear,” another shopper shared. “Just today, I wore it in the cold rain. The coat kept me dry and warm.”
Others say it makes a fantastic layering piece. "It’s a great little rain jacket," another shopper said. "Perfect for wearing into work or out on a walk. Very nice with a base layer."
REI Co-op's Trailmade Rain Jacket is the perfect addition to any gear pack or just something to leave in the car in case the weather takes a turn for the worst. And, at just $35, you won't find a better price on a quality piece of clothing. Just make sure to grab yours before it sells out.
