How To Score Outdoor Gear From The North Face, Patagonia and REI For Less

outdoor gear for less

Outdoor gear doesn’t need to come at a steep price if you know where to go. When it comes to scoring the best down jackets and cold-weather necessities for the best bang of your buck, why not go for refurbished gear that are in near-mint condition — sans leaving a deep ecological footprint on our planet? Do your part in saving the earth by being part of the re-commerce trend. Instead of paying for original priced threads, why not get the same apparel and accessories for a fraction of the price from these brands?

Below, our favourite outdoor gear brands The North Face, Patagonia and REI have refurbished lines that are worth a gloss over:

The North Face Renewed

Recently, the North Face joined forces with Oregon-based The Renewal Workshop — an operation that restores and renews apparel and textiles, upcycled materials and even recycled feedstock. All of the North Face Renewed items come from returned, defective or damaged apparel, and the best part? Their gear is covered by a one-year warranty that protects against manufacturing defects in materials and workmanship. From women’s jackets and tights to men’s coats and hoodies, score some treasures from the links below.

Patagonia Worn Wear

Before the North Face started its Renewed program, Patagonia pioneered the re-commerce movement with its Worn Wear site that was brought to life from its pop-up events. These pop-ups allow customers to repair or exchange their used apparel, and after rave reviews and a successful string of events, the Worn Wear site was launched. Fun fact: Worn Wear is the largest garment repair facility in North America with more than 40,000 individual repairs a year. You can expect to get reduced Patagonia gear (both used and new) — all in excellent quality and reasonably affordable prices.
