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.

Comments about REI Pulaski Pants - Men's 34" Inseam:
Like Henry Brock, I was really happy with my first pair of Pulaski pants that I bought two years ago. One of the first features I test when I consider a new pair of pants is the size of the coin pocket. I use mine for a DOPP/Buxton key case, so most such pockets aren't wide or deep enough for me. However, Pulaski's was perfect. I also appreciated the large side pocket with internal pocket for my phone and Velcro closure.
So, when I received my new pair of Pulaskis the other day, I was really upset by the change in pocket design. The switch to a narrower side pocket is only a nominal disappointment because it isn't as roomy as the last one, so I can really only put my phone inside. Also, the lack of closure raises a concern that my phone could fall out. More to my sadness, though, the coin pocket is narrower than in was before by at least a quarter-inch and stitched higher on the pants than the previous one. While the old one had its top at the top edge of the main pocket, this one is above that and access to it is blocked by my belt.
While I'll probably keep these pants, unless I find they shrink significantly in the laundry, I'll probably visit a seamstress and get the coin pocket switched out for a larger one, as the thickness of stuff in my pocket is now uncomfortable, the main hand pockets already a tad slim.

Comments about REI Pulaski Pants - Men's 34" Inseam:
I primarily use the pulaski pant for work as an engineeer in a laboratory setting. I have some older versions with the higher waist which were very comfortable; enough thigh room, minimal chafing walking or running, and durable. The three old pairs are about three years old.
I bought new ones December 2012: 32w32i and 32w34i. The latter are about an inch longer and much tighter in the thighs, which I'm not happy about. The best part about these pants is the right-side leg pocket which is large enough for a smart phone; the 32w32i are just fine, but the phone is difficult to slide in on the longer, skinnier pair. I'll be avoiding the dryer.

Comments about REI Pulaski Pants - Men's 34" Inseam:
I found the fit to be strange. They are large in the waist and hips, uncomfortably tight in the quads, and unnecessarily large in the calves. One of the results is extra fabric between my thighs, which isn't comfy. Also, the design left some things to be desired. While I appreciated the extra belt loops, the rear pockets are too low. When you sit in them, your wallet ends up below your butt, which is also not comfortable! And finally, I think the materials are suspect. I didn't have any problem with them shrinking, as others have noted, but I question the longevity of it. I have other cotton canvas pants that seem like they will long outlast these. If I hadn't bought them on sale with a gift card, I'd probably return them.

Comments about REI Pulaski Pants - Men's 34" Inseam:
I would say these pant are incredibly comfortable and really sold me on REI pant wear. They fit pretty close to size when you get them. Watch out though, when you wash these they will literally shrink a full size. Though they might stretch back out in the waist you are not going to get that inseam back. I literally lost an inch or 2 on the inseam after 1 wash. I am rather disappointed about that but I was luckily able to just order a size 34 inch inseam and hopefully that will do it. They are in the mail as we speak. Other than that I really like these pants but I would size up maybe 1 in the waist and 2 inches on the length.

Comments about REI Pulaski Pants - Men's 34" Inseam:
I use these as my everyday around campus and town pants. They fit great at first and are very comfortable, but as others have noted, there are a few flaws. W/o washing them, they were fine. After washing and drying on lowest possible settings, they lost a solid inch in length and waist. In addition, I've noticed accelerated wear in the inseam. I'm at the point where I'm just not washing them at all so I can keep wearing them.

Comments about REI Pulaski Pants - Men's 34" Inseam:
The pants fit very nicely when purchased..comfortable. After 3 washings they have shrunk a little bit at the waist and a little bit in the inseam. Don't buy if you intend to modify the length as you lose the advantage of the reinforced heel area. It sounds as though 34 inseam is all thats left so they should really be on sale.

Comments about REI Pulaski Pants - Men's 34" Inseam:
After months of searching for the perfect rugged climbing pant, I settled for the REI Pulaski.
The material is thick and rugged yet soft. They don't have the "crispy" feeling that other rugged pants have (ie: Kuhl, MK, Carhartt).
Mind that you should get them sized up in the inseam length. They shrink more and more with each wash. Normally a 32/32 wearer, the legs shrunk up a good amount, almost 3 in. The waist shrunk a little bit, but wearing them a lot stretches them back out. I now own 32/34s and they have shrunk up just right.
Some stitching in the knee has also come out. It's single stitched, so time will tell if that really matters, hopefully they won't come apart on me.
Despite its shortcomings, I still really like them. I see them as an better looking and better performing Patagonia duck pant.

Comments about REI Pulaski Pants - Men's 34" Inseam:
I wanted to love these pants. They looked rugged and well built and the fit was perfect until I washed them. They shrank about 1/2 inch in the waist and 3/4 inch in the length. What a disappointment! Other than that major problem they were perfect. Come'on REI test your fabrics first.
