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.

Bought these based on reviews. So thanks to all for input. Overall pleased with comfort, etc. I'm 5-9, 210 lbs, 60 yrs old and got around 450 miles on them before they starting causing pains in my legs. Just ordered another pair!

Excellent shoe. Tight lacing take a little more effort to put them on but makes for a good stable "wrapped" feel. Very comfy support.

Comments about Brooks Cascadia 8 Trail-Running Shoes - Men's:
Most Brooks shoes fit my feet perfectly and the Cascadia 8 is no exception. The only time I get blisters in these shoes is after doing multiple creek crossings. I have used them for everything from a multi-day backpacking trip with a 30+ lb pack to a 100 mile runs and in all types of conditions. They drain very quickly when wet. The big lugs grab tight to everything.
