REI is one of the first names when it comes to outdoor apparel and gear. The company has been hocking specialized outdoor equipment since 1938, and is still at the forefront of outdoor sport — stocking cutting edge brands like Arc’teryx and old school stalwarts like The North Face and Patagonia. The buyers at REI don’t miss anything, that’s for sure. That’s why when REI has a sale like its ongoing Spring Sale, you can find an invaluable treasure trove of deals on anything from tents and sleeping bags to sneakers and down jackets. We put together a handy breakdown of some of our favorite pieces of outdoor gear you can snap on sale.

We were pretty struck by this strange bowl set. Camp stove-safe and collapsable for easy storage and cleaning, the Bear Bowls include paracord-wrapped handles for emergency preparedness and campground tasks. The set includes three bowls at 32-, 64- and 128-fluid ounces, so there is sure to be one for all occasions.
