    REI Members get back an estimated $ 4.00 on this item as part of their annual member refund.

    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 Pepper's Breakwater Polarized Floating Sunglasses:

        I bought these having just lost a pair of expensive sunglasses. I thought, "Well, I'm done getting expensive sunglasses. I'll just get a couple pairs of these and suffer the downgrade". Now I wouldn't trade these for the pair I lost. Super comfortable, ran a 10-miler in them and it felt like they weren't even there. Great in the glare department too.

        Picture shows wrong style

              Comments about Pepper's Breakwater Polarized Floating Sunglasses:

              The picture is incorrect, it shows the Black/Yellow glasses, yet REI is selling the Grey/Brown version. This should be fixed on the website.

              I own both the silver/brown and black/yellow. I prefer the black frames with yellow tint lenses, but I can't find these any longer.

              Aside from the misleading picture, do I like these? Yes, I have 3 pairs.

              Note: the polarization is funky - I think each eye has a different angle of polarization, which can make viewing some LCD screens difficult (e.g. on your smartphone) at certain rotations.

              I am a professional in the outdoor industry guiding people kayaking, canoeing, climbing, hiking, backpacking, etc... I came across these glasses in the CO REI while looking for a better replacement to my other glasses. These glasses are so lite and wrap around your eyes keeping out light from the sides. Especially good for on the water. The only thing I would change is making them a bit more scratch resistant. Other than that they have been awesome glasses. Going to buy another pair or two.

                Comments about Pepper's Breakwater Polarized Floating Sunglasses:

                I hike, backpack, bike, and canoe/kayak. I have spent hours trying on glasses that I just didn't like and wasn't going to pay the price for another new pair of Oakley's or RayBan's that I have owned in the past. I can't believe I bought these without trying them on, but for the price I thought it was worth a shot. I am VERY impressed with everything about these glasses! Lightweight, clear lens, perfect fit, and they look good to boot. Do yourself a favor and get a pair!

                Service and delivery comments:

                I was very pleased at the earlier than estimated arrival. Box and glasses were in perfect condition. Excellent service!
