    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 Lowa Mountain Expert GTX Mountaineering Boots - Women's:

    I was hoping to use this boot to replace the La Sportiva boots I've been using for years. This boot was comfortable right out of the box - and is really warm. Delightfully warm! I've used it on trail and off trail, on rock and on snow. It does well scrambling - even though it doesn't have the best friction it does alright. It does well on snow and glaciers as well. Although anything technical from steep snow on it isn't that functional. The ankle is quite big and loose and does not provide adequate foot or ankle support, especially when crampons are being used. It looses its technical edge. So good approach shoe and good for moderate alpine terrain - but not a technical shoe.
