Re/Supply is where members can shop and trade in used gear at REI all year. It’s a more sustainable and affordable way for members to purchase gear and apparel than buying new. Re/Supply includes gently used items that customers have either returned or traded-in and is ready for more life outside.
Members can participate in the following ways:
- Shopping the dedicated used gear section in most REI stores
- Shopping used gear online through the REI website
- Shopping our Re/Supply stores in Manhattan Beach, CA and Conshohocken, PA
- Trading in used gear in exchange for an REI gift card
Learn more about used gear at REI, shop used gear online, or begin a trade-in.
Re/Supply is an opportunity for REI members to have a positive impact on the outdoors by finding (or giving) new homes to gently used items. Buying a used item, instead of new, typically avoids CO2 emissions of 50% or more. This is based on REI Co-op’s estimate of preparing used gear for sale versus making new gear. Buying or trading-in gently used gear keeps your items out of landfills and gives you the opportunity to share gear with other members!
Re/Supply is 60 years of in-store Garage Sales reimagined. Access to used gear hasn't gone away, it's gotten better! Members can now shop and trade in used gear all year.
The Fund† was established to harness the collective power of our members and employees to build a more just and inclusive outdoor culture. REI is donating $5 for every membership purchased because we believe that time outside is a human right, and connection to nature is fundamental to the social, cultural, and physical health and well-being of all people.
Learn more about the Fund, including current grantees, recommending a grantee, donating, or additional information.
†The REI Cooperative Action Fund is a 501(c)(3) public charity which makes grants to nonprofits that promote justice, equity and belonging in the outdoors.With each new membership purchased, the co-op will donate $5 to support REI Cooperative Action Fund. REI’s donation is separate from the membership fee and made on behalf of the co-op, not each individual new member.
New members will be invited to share which of the Fund's three grantmaking initiatives they prefer—connecting people outside, creating space outside or centering health outside. The Fund staff will consider member feedback in deciding how the REI donation is invested in nonprofits, but the Fund is not restricted in how it makes its investments.
