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.
- Learn how we calculate the member dividend.
- Find out how to redeem your dividend.
- Learn when dividends expire.
Questions? Call us at 1-800-426-4840 for more about your dividend or its redemption.
The men's Brooks Cascadia 8 trail-running shoes offer aggressive trail traction and a responsive, supportive ride that can tackle ultras or quick outings through your local park's trails.
- Durable synthetic leather and nylon/polyester mesh uppers are lightweight and airy for quick-drying, comfortable performance
- Geometric microfiber overlays wrap feet for an enhanced fit
- Element air-mesh in uppers and linings provides excellent ventilation and moisture management to keep feet dry on the run; removable insoles add cushioning
- DNA cushioning uses high viscosity liquid to react instantly to each step, customizing the cushion for different runners and running styles
- Midsoles feature BioMoGo polymer alloy foam, which provides cushioning, energy return and reduced foot fatigue; nontoxic additive helps midsoles break down in landfills
- Medial and lateral Pivot Posting system helps outsoles adapt to your stride, offering added stability on uneven surfaces and trail irregularities
- Ballistic Rock Shield hardened EVA plates in forefeet help protect feet from sharp rocks
- Brooks Cascadia 8 trail-running shoes feature a blend of high-density carbon rubber and recycled rubber for outstanding durability; aggressive lugs maximize grip on the trail
- Outsoles also feature a special decoupled crash pad design that smooths out the landing zone throughout the heel strike

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.

Comments about Brooks Cascadia 8 Trail-Running Shoes - Men's:
I run through trials and do pit stops in the river to cool down while running with my pup. Can easily jump in the water and get right out and back to running with little water drag weight that dry's quickly in the summer heat.

Comments about Brooks Cascadia 8 Trail-Running Shoes - Men's:
This shoe will not protect you on the trail from stone bruises. It is just a running shoe with a more aggressive tread. I have run in the Brookes Beast not for pronation but because they are beefy for years and they were more stable and provided better protection than these trail shoes. I would not recommend for trail running. Granted I am 6' 4" and 230 but regardless I would not put my kid in these for tough trail. I love the Brooke Beast but have not had much luck from other Brooke shoes for the trail. This shoe needs more padding and a shank.
