REI Co-op Flash Hyperstretch fleece jacket, from $50 (was $100)
Why is this a good deal?
REI continues to clear out last season’s styles as it moves forward with new drops from its warm-weather resort collection, new seasonal camping gear, and several brand-name releases. But it’s not just ski equipment and snow boots that are on sale – there are plenty of hoodies available all year round, including a bestseller from the retailer’s in-house brand.
The REI Co-op Flash Hyperstretch fleece jacket is on sale for as low as $50, which is 50% off the regular price. This jacket is on sale in REI Red and Echo Gray for a slightly higher price, and you can order it in sizes small up to 3XL. REI has developed a fanbase for its in-house gear, and they love it—it’s been awarded a “Top-Rated” badge and has a 4.5-star rating after four dozen rave reviews.

You can tell by the name alone that the Flash HyperStretch fleece jacket is built for rugged motion. The secret ingredient is the fabric: It’s made from a blend of recycled polyester, nylon, and spandex, giving the jacket solid durability and enough stretch to move with you.
The interior of the jacket has a woolen texture for a truly cozy feel that will keep you feeling comfortable regardless of the weather. A wind flap at the back of the main zipper, elastic cuffs and a drawcord hem keep out cold wind, and the scuba-style hood has an elasticated brim and a snug fit to keep it from blowing off your head in windy conditions.

what shoppers are saying
One REI buyer called the Flash HyperStretch “completely comfortable” and another said it was “the best jacket I’ve ever owned.”
A third reviewer called it “sharp looking and functional,” and said how much they liked it “It’s soft and warm and fits perfect over the wrists and the hood.”
Just $50 for a warm, stretchy, super comfortable jacket from a reputable brand like REI? You don’t need us to tell you that Flash Hyperstretch fleece is an amazing deal. Unfortunately, it’s only on sale in a few colours, and that might mean there’s not much stock left – get yours asap before your size sells out.
