40 Great Deals at REI's Labor Day Sale 2023

Summer is nearing an end, but that doesn’t mean the adventures have to stop. Fall is one of our team’s favorite seasons to explore in since it means cooler weather, fewer crowds, and less bugs on the trail.

On top of that, one of REI’s best sales of the year - the Labor Day Sale - is happening from August 25-September 4th and includes some of our favorite backpacking, hiking, and camping gear. In addition to deep discounts, REI members have access to some exclusive sale items, and they’ll receive an extra 20% off one outlet item with coupon code: LABORDAY23.

We scoured the sale to find the hottest deals on top ranking items from our Gear Guides. Here's what we're most stoked on in this year's sale.
