    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 ASICS GT-2000 Road-Running Shoes - Men's:

      I have been running in the 2100 series for 4 years and have worn out 7 pairs. The new generation of the 2100 series are great and I have noticed little difference aside from better breathability and a little better heal support. The cushion is good but not overwhelming. I primarily use these for marathon training and they are just as comfortable after mile 16 as they were on the first ones. For solid, steady running, these shoes are a great choice.

      Comments about ASICS GT-2000 Road-Running Shoes - Men's:

      I run competitive obstacles courses like the Tough Mudder, Spartan Race, Warrior Dash, etc. At 5'7, I hardly describe myself as a "runner" more like someone who "covers a distance."

      I've had these now going on a month and only have used them in the gym since Wisconsin still has snow on the ground and the roads are pretty slick.

      I put them through a break in period and have been using them while I go through my lift routine and on the treadmill.

      The traction seems good and they provide good stability while I do my gym's "sweat fest" aerobic classes.

      However, where these fail me is on the treadmill. Tightening or loosening laces, inserts, different thickness of socks nothing I do seems to make these comfortable for a run of even a few miles.

      The shoes are light compared to the Brooks they replaced and they definitely seem to wrap my feet more like a minimalist shoe; but the balls of my feet can't take them long distance.

      Maybe they would perform better on the road but for the treadmill look elsewhere.

      • Sizing:
