    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 SunCloud Excursion Polarized Sunglasses:

        Awesome glasses, I have taken them out on a few weekend backpacking trips and they are perfect. I also use them as every day glasses for driving and whatever else. They are lightweight, resilient (not sure how durable, but will withstand some bending and banging), polarized, and stylish. My brother thought they were maui jims, it was nice to be able to tell him that they are almost identical to the maui jims he has just 1/4 the cost (and a little less bendable).

        Super comfortable, great wind protection. Quality polarized lenses. It is frameless but I still wish it was a little ore rugged. Still good for being frameless.

          These are the best sunglasses I own. They're polarized, super lightweight, clear and stay on my face while playing tennis. The fit is super comfortable (in part because they're so lightweight) yet they stay in place. They hold up well getting thrown in a tennis bag too.

          Comments about SunCloud Excursion Polarized Sunglasses:

          These are sold on a try-on-yourself display at the store, which gave me a bit of pause for [$] sunglasses. But I couldn't find a scratch on any pair I tried on. The Excursions fit my wide face well, and are amazingly light and comfy. The lenses have good coverage, and distortion toward the edge of the lens is minimal. The frameless-lens design is stylish and lightweight, but these specs are definitely more flexible than others I've owned in the past. Normally I'm a black/gray type of guy, but the tortoise on these is very subtle and I actually preferred the brown lenses in this case.A great product! Very happy with them.

              I really love these sunglasses! I wear them anytime I am outside. They are very comfortable, look good, and they really cut the glare. I also like the fact that they stay on regardless of the activity. It is really great to get a pair of quality sunglasses like these for a modest price!

                This is a great lightweight pair of sunglasses. I wear them for running and cycling (and around town). I have some other much more expensive sunglasses, but these are far better for active pursuits. I lost my first pair in the ocean and, without hesitation, bought a second pair.

                  Comments about SunCloud Excursion Polarized Sunglasses:

                  Aside from looking cool and functioning as great sunglasses, these have stood up to some serious punishment in Idaho and California backwoods. Every pair of metal sunglasses I have ever owned has ended up tweaked and bent after a few weeks of use. Thanks to the minimal use of metal (for screws) in these sunglasses, that hasn't happened yet. These are great sunglasses!
