The REI Member Dividend

The REI dividend is a unique benefit of membership in the REI co-op. It's comprised of your member refund—typically 10% back on eligible purchases—and/or your REI Visa® card rebates.

Each March, active REI members and REI Visa cardholders who earned a rebate receive a refund in the form of an annual dividend notice.

Only active members receive annual dividend notices. To maintain your active status as an REI member, you need to make net merchandise or shipping purchases of at least $10 per year, unless you joined that year. Member numbers are issued in one name and only that person receives the member refund. Your number can be used by others in your family, but it cannot be transferred to someone else.

Questions? Call us at 1-800-426-4840 for more about your dividend or its redemption.

Comments about Croakies PET Artisan Belt:

I bought this belt for my significant other when his other belts all broke at once. At first he liked the look but had trouble with it slipping constantly. After about a month he realized there was an alternative way to do the buckle that ended up being more secure than how he had perviously been doing the belt.

Word of warning, if you have slipping issue with this belt, try doing a "double back" method similar to a climbing harness and you'll be fine.

Comments about Croakies PET Artisan Belt:

Worst belt I've ever had. Will return. Buckle slips and I have to tighten it every 5 minutes. Never had that experience with another belt. Poor buckle design. Agree with prior reviewer....essentially worthless.

Comments about Croakies PET Artisan Belt:

This was a great belt for about two months, now wont stay cinched down! It constantly slips when I move and sit in a chair, and then I keep on re-tightening it over and over! I do like the idea of a belt you can trim to size though, that's all I like about it.

Service and delivery comments:

Product showed up on time and in perfect condition, what more could I ask for?

Comments about Croakies PET Artisan Belt:

Minimalist. Lightweight. Stylish. Waterproof. Holds tight.

I adjusted mine to size by trimming off the excess and then running a cigarette lighter across the raw end to "cauterize the wound," that is, keep the threads from running.

Comments about Croakies PET Artisan Belt:

If you want a webbing belt that is comfortably wide without looking like climbing or tactical gear, this is it.

Compared to many other webbing belts, this belt is wide, substantial and supports weight confortably. The finish of the fabric lacks the shine of nylon and looks similar to cotton webbing.

The metal buckle is easy to adjust in fine increments, holds well, looks nice and is safe with no sharp edges or pinching parts. It is not quite as easy to fasten and unfasten as a plastic camlock buckle, but it looks better and is unbreakable.

The only downside is that between the generous width of the webbing and the slightly rough melted blunt tip, the belt may not feed easily through belt loops. When I shorten mine, I will try to neaten the tip and possibly cut it rounded or tapered.

The flat webbing would work well under a suspension hip belt. The synthetic material should be good around water or for sweaty activities. Easily nice enough to wear in town.
