I have been a member of REI for 50 years, and since they're relatively new to Tallahassee, I cannot help but write a good, strong, positive review.
If you are looking for quality out-door gear and clothing at competitive pricing, you ought to Stop By REI. We purchased our first cross-country skis there, moved on to boots, sleeping bags, tents, and just good clothes. Today, I will go there before going anywhere else.
A few months ago I discovered their already worn shoe selection, and I was knocked out! I bought two pair of HOKA shoes (I'd never heard of them before my visit) - one pair completely waterproof, and the other hardly worn. They were available for just over 1/2 price thanks to the used availability here in Tallahassee.
I could go on and on, but mostly I encourage anyone to just stop in and check out what is available, and get wonderful help without pressure. Great deals are available on quality clothes and equipment, but you have to check out the possibilities. You won't be disappointed.
Again, we became members fifty years ago, and I have never doubted that I'll keep returning for more, until I just can't. And, while those days are straight ahead, we're not there yet, and REI continues to encourage us to "just keep gettin' out there."
Stop by, give them a "look-see," and seriously consider a membership. You won't regret it.
