    REI Members get back an estimated $ 2.45 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 Novara Padded Cycle Briefs - Women's:

        I did not like the padding in these briefs. I don't know if it is the specific pair I bought or all of them in general, but the padding is little in the rear and very little in the front portion. It almost feels like the padding was placed too far back in the brief.

          these are comfortable, durable, don't creep up and a great alternative to expensive bike shorts. These are great for wearing under your regular workout shorts without adding to much bulk. Enough padding for comfort for a long ride or spin class

          The padding is minimal. I haven't been on a long ride while wearing these but don't think it would be a good idea.

          Comments about Novara Padded Cycle Briefs - Women's:

          Nice material, good fit, doesn't ride up. Would work well for a recombant bike seat as the padding is way in the back, not where you need it. Won't buy a second pair.
