    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.

        Comments about ExOfficio Give-N-Go String Bikini Briefs - Women's:

        I wore these yesterday on a 14 mile trek plus a quick toddle around in my kayak. They were great at wicking away moisture and the best part was their odor resistance. I've always worn Pantagonia's underware and have often been disappointed with there ability to control odor in hot conditions. These keep me fresh, dry, and happy all day! Plus, hand washed them last night and they're ready for today's adventures!

          Comments about ExOfficio Give-N-Go String Bikini Briefs - Women's:

          So far, for my body, build, and comfort, these are the best underpants I've ever owned. I have trouble with undies hiking up, if you know what I mean. I've hated that so much, I actually don't like to wear underpants anymore, and pretty much just gave up. I'm not into the "tug-tug" all day long, hoping no body is watching. I do travel quite a bit, and I needed something to take on trips that I could wash out in a sink and have dry by morning. These are perfect, and are dry in about an hour if you roll them up in a towel real good before laying them out to dry. Also, for some reason, the cut fits me so well, they hardly ever ride up. If they do, I don't notice- hence I'm not tugging. Can't speak for you, but these work great for me! Also, they wear like iron. I've had mine now, for about 3 years, and they still look like new. They seem to be made very well.

            I bought two pair of these for travel in India during the whole month of August (read HOT and HUMID). When traveling through the desert, all of my clothing had salt lines by the end of the day, though these underwear never felt wet. They are very lightweight and thin. They washed clean by hand every night with little odor and held up well in the few washing machines we used. They dry very quickly when hung to dry. I now wear them frequently for every activity including hiking, backpacking, biking, running, and all winter sports.

            Good, but the fit could be better.

              I mostly use these for my to and from work 7 mile bike rides but I'll use them any time I am going to break a sweat and am not wearing pants with built-in undies. I usually wear small, and got these in that size and the waste fits well, over all they. I like low-rise and these hit just right. My main complaint is that the do not cover my butt all the way. They kind of go across. I was worried they would ride up but that's not usually a problem, just occasionally. I like coverage but not bulky excess and these would be perfect if they did that better. Would not buy another pair.

                I went backpacking around the world for 3.5 months and brought 3 pairs of these with me, and that's it as far as unmentionables go. They were recommended by a friend and it was one of the best tips I got. You can wash the ones you're not wearing at night (get travel detergent at [...] or REI), and they dry by morning. Probably 4 pair would've been better, but I wont complain- they took up zero space in my pack and added almost zero weight, were comfortable and lasted through a serious amount of hiking. AMAZING.

                  I have owned several pairs of these briefs for over a year now, and they are just about all I wear now. They wick moisture well and dry very quickly. I've had no issues with durability, they hold up to everyday use. I'm 5'5, 128, with 36" hips and small fits perfectly.

                    I just bought my third pair and I can't get enough! I bring three pair with me on trips, one on, one clean and ready to go, and one just washed. Takes a few hours to dry in damp weather, less than an hour in hot and sunny weather. They pack very tight, extremely lightweight, and fit well.

                    You changed something in the new exofficio underwear. I prefer the old ones. The new ones have a bigger elastic band at the waist and it doesn't dry as fast as the old ones. I went to buy some more and found that they didn't make the old ones anymore so bought a pair of the "new" ones. and am disappointed that the elastic was still damp the next day; whereas in the old ones that I have, they would be dry in 2/3 hours. Bring back the old style. I found the same problem w/ the elastic staying damp in the men's exofficio underwear too. Bummer and I was trying to just wear only exofficio's. However, they are still very nice underwear, just not as quick drying as the old ones. I've had them for 3 years and they still look new. I've also just tossed them in the washing machine and they hold up well.
