    Got a Patagonia synchilla here last year. Wore it several times and ruined it in the washing machine getting caught in center agitator. REI Boulder gave me a replacement item and laundry bag for future use free of charge when going to take it in for in-store repair. Thank you!

    Stopped at REI today and had a fantastic experience with the Associate, Lee. They were incredibly well versed in regard to the products we were asking about. They took their time with us and ensured we walked away with the knowledge we were seeking. Lee was 10/10 super helpful and we thoroughly enjoyed our conversation with them.
