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 REI Ultra Light Pants - Women's Regular:

I have been hunting for a lightweight rain pant that is long enough for me, has pockets, is not uncomfortably tight in the waist in a size small enough not to swallow me in the hips and thighs. I have a relatively slim, athletic figure, small hips and thighs. At my age (and after 2 kids), my waist is thicker (30") in proportion to my hips and thighs than it used to be. SO I need an S or even an XS to keep from looking like a clown from excess fabric at the hips and thighs. However, many women's rain pants have tight waists, very uncomfortably so for me. These pants in an XS have comfortable elastic and do not cut in at the waist, yet they stay up just fine. The legs are straight and a good length for me (5'4"). They have pockets - rare in lightweight rain pants. Finally, a rain pant that fits me!

I see that another reviewer reported that they didn't hold up in a heavy work situation, but given that they're lightweight pants, I'm not looking for heavy duty work pants. These are great for hiking and camping and are holding up fine for me so far. This pant has everything I was looking for at a good price too.

Comments about REI Ultra Light Pants - Women's Regular:

Worked well with wind, rain, and mud...up until it developed two tears along the seams...while I was in the field in the middle of working on a month long project....with no REI around to exchange them at.

I wouldn't exchange them for another REI pair anyhow, same thing happened to my coworkers also REI rain pants, which were brand new. Maybe the conditions we put them through were a bit too extreme and these pants just couldn't handle it....but I do have a different brand of rain jacket and that's still kicking.

Comments about REI Ultra Light Pants - Women's Regular:

I really needed a pair of rain pants and decide to ask for a pair for my birthday. I tried on The North Face Venture pants but they were very unflattering. After talking to a wonderful REI salesperson, I tried these on and instantly loved them. The fit was perfect and flattering, which is hard to do in rain pants. I've worn them out in the chilly fall rain and they've keep me nice and dry.
