    Luke went above and beyond helping me find a rain coat today. Thank you Luke! He provided both technical information and showed a variety of manufacturing strategies that present real world differences in the many raincoat selections REI carries. He also provided detailed information and examples of 2, 2 1/2, and 3 layer coat options. We ended up choosing the REI Xero Cloud 3L and immediately put it to use. It is a great PNW layer that will get significant use.

    We came here to buy jackets and raincoats, and we found the perfect sizes. We buy most of our hiking essentials here. The shoes are very durable and last for more than two years. Staffs are helpful.
