I love this time of the year. No, it's not the autumn leaves bursting with color or anticipation for the upcoming holiday season; it's the epic, epic early Black Friday jacket deals that have me brimming with excitement.
I live in the U.S. Pacific Northwest, where I spend a ton of time in the great outdoors field testing high-tech puffers, fleeces, shells, and more from top names including The North Face, Patagonia, and Arc'teryx.
While gear from these brands is ordinarily quite pricey, you can save up to 40% on some of my all-time favorite jackets right now, including the legendary Patagonia Houdini for just $96 at REI. But deals start even cheaper than that! Quarter-zip fleeces from The North Face are only $45 at REI.
These bargains are sure to sell out long before Black Friday officially rolls around. So, don't delay. Details below.
Glacier Fleece Quarter-Zip: was $70 now $45
The North Face makes some of the softest, most comfortable fleece jackets on the market, with the Glacier quarter-zip being a personal favorite, especially when it's just $45 in eye-catching "dusk blue." View Deal
Houdini Stash Half-Zip Pullover: was $139 now $96 Do you believe in magic? I didn't, until I got my hands on my first Patagonia Houdini jacket (now I own several), a ridiculously lightweight and packable outer shell for windy and/or drizzly days. While not as hardy as a proper rain shell, the Houdini is made from 100% recycled ripstop nylon and treated with a Durable Water Repellent (DWR) spray, so it should keep you pretty dry in all but the hardest downpours.
