Clothing Deals

Lots of deals going on in the world of clothing today.  Here are my top picks that I’m seeing:

North Face Apex Risor Jacket

North Face Apex Risor Jacket

The North Face Apex Risor Jacket for Men is 50% off, today only, at REI-Outlet.  Four different color options and sizing looks good at the time of this post. From the listing, here are a few features of this jacket that is made for windy, wet conditions:

  • Stretchy, windproof WindWall knit-face soft shell with heathered fleece backer; face fabric has a durable water repellent (DWR) that fends off moisture and resists stains
  • Secure-zip hand pockets with zip garages; secure-zip forearm stash pocket
  • Partially elastic-bound cuffs
  • Exposed center-front zipper with internal draft flap
  • Droptail hem extends coverage in back

This Outdoor Research Ferrosi Hooded Jacket for Women is $29.68 which is 70% off at Steep and Cheap!

Outdoor Research Ferrosi Hooded Jacket


Mountain Steals: Marmot Sale

Mountain Steals is offering an extra 10% off Marmot with code MARMOT49 plus free shipping on Marmot orders over $49


Huge Discounts on Columbia for Men, Women, and Kids

These rock bottom prices on Columbia are still going strong on Amazon today!  We’re talking $5-$6 pants, $3 shorts, etc!  If you can find the size you’re after in something you’ve been looking for, you’re gonna score a HUGE deal!

Amazon’s Prime Wardrobe feature makes this deal even sweeter, since you can “try before you buy” with many of the options.  This essentially gives you free shipping AND returns, so there’s nothing lost if you want to try it on first before committing.

These popular and highly-rated Columbia Silver Ridge Convertible Pants for Men are as low as $6.23!!

And if you can’t find something you like at Amazon, head to Columbia’s website and use code COLDECEMBER for up to 65% off!  The discount varies, depending on what you add to your cart, but the sale section is extensive right now and the thing I added to my own cart to test the code all came in at over 60% off!


Eddie Bauer Guide Pro Pants

Eddie Bauer Pro Pants

These Eddie Bauer Pro Guide Pants are highly recommended from someone in my Facebook group who knows her stuff with quality gear and clothing and now they’re even lower in price than when I posted them the other day.

Use code GIVE50 to get them for 50% off!  In fact, you can use GIVE50 for all of Eddie Bauer’s site right now to get 50% off!  Both men’s and women’s versions are on sale (but you have to plug in the code to get the sale price, so don’t forget!)

Free shipping on orders of $49 or more at Eddie Bauer right now too!

The features that appeal to me are:

  • UPF 50 sun protection
  • StormRepel DWR Finish
  • Two zippered cargo pockets

And from our awesome Facebook group member who loves these pants:

“I also like that these pants will stay rolled up when I roll them up for stream crossings or to cool off. The leg pockets are large enough for my phone, but I don’t have a newer larger phone. I have an iPhone 5s in a water proof case. They are higher waisted than some other pants and don’t have back pockets. But the front pockets are nice and cut in a way that keys, etc… won’t fall out. The leg pockets are large, but low-profile. They dry fast.”


REI Classic Sahara Convertible Pants

REI Classic Sahara Convertible Pants

If you’d like another option for well-rated pants at a steal of a price, the REI Sahara Convertible Pants are currently $37.93 (41% off) in women’s sizes and $34.83 for men (50% off). 

Several color options for men and two for women, and I’m seeing decent availability for all of them right now.


Mountain Hardware Dynama Skirt

Mountain Hardware Dynama Skirt

The Mountain Hardware Dynama Skirt has a couple of features that I think are key in a hiking skirt:  a stretchy waistband and fabric with excellent stretch properties (in this case, a nylon-spandex blend).  It also has two adjustable drawcord cinches at the hem so you can customize the fit.

Personally, I like lighter weight skirts, even in winter, because I can pair them with leggings rated well for cold weather.

At $27.92, this skirt is 50% off at Mountain Hardware.  Mountain Hardware is also offering free ground shipping on ALL orders right now!

BUT, Amazon comes to the rescue on this one with a much better variety of colors and sizes, if you’re not into black or your size isn’t available. You can get this skirt on Amazon as low as $32.98 right now (with free Prime shipping and free returns).


My Trail Co. Products 

My Trail Co. Down Jacket

My Trail Co. is still offering their branded products for 50% off right now!  Down jackets abound in this sale in varying degrees of fill levels.  Hooded and non-hooded varieties as well.  Rain and wind gear are also available for 60% off.

If I were in the market for a new jacket for one of my family members, I would totally be cashing in on this one!


Marmot PreCip Pants (Men and Women’s Styles)

Marmot Precip Pants

Both men and women’s Marmot Precip Pants  are on sale for $49.99 at Sierra Trading Post!  Many of my Facebook Group members love these pants and even use them for snow shoeing adventures!

Sierra Trading post is also offering free shipping for order $89 and up with code FREESHIP.


Outdoor Research Women’s Echo Tank

Prices vary on this Outdoor Research Echo Tank depending on the color and sizes, but you can get still them as low as $5.03 right now!

I bought two of these and LOVE them! They run fairly true to size, but they are a “fitted” type of fit, so keep that in mind if you like looser tops.  Super lightweight and comfy when I wear them to Crossfit style classes, but I know they’ll be my go-to for summer hikes soon enough!
