Why It's a Good Deal
REI just cut prices even more on many of the house-brand styles in its sale section. What we've seen recently is everything from Co-op-brand rain jackets to insulated jackets, and also things like base layer shirts soar to as much as 51% off their normal prices, before what we're estimating is a huge spring product reveal. What we were most surprised to find, though, was that REI's popular fleece hoodie went far beyond that benchmark.
The REI Co-op Flash Hyperstretch Fleece Jacket is on sale for as low as $30, up to a 70% discount from its normal price of $100. This jacket is on sale in two colorways, gray and teal, and you can order it in sizes small up to 3XL. Shoppers also really seem to like it—it's been awarded a "Top-Rated" badge and has a very healthy 4.5-star rating after amassing nearly three dozen glowing reviews.

You can tell from the name alone that the Flash Hyperstretch Fleece Jacket is built for rigorous movement. The secret ingredient is the fabric: It’s made from a blend of recycled polyester, nylon, and spandex, which gives the jacket solid durability and enough stretch to move with you.
The interior of the jacket has a fleece texture for a really comfortable, warm feel that’ll keep you feeling cozy in chilly weather. A wind flap behind the main zipper, elastic cuffs, and a drawcord hem keep cold breezes at bay, and the scuba-style hood has an elasticated edge and a snug fit to keep it from blowing off your head in windy conditions.

What Shoppers Are Saying
One REI shopper called the Flash Hyperstretch “totally comfortable,” and another said it’s “the best jacket that I ever had.”
A third reviewer called it “sharp looking and functional,” adding how much they loved that “it’s soft and warm and a just-right fit on the wrists and hood.”
Just $30 for a warm, stretchy, super comfortable jacket from a respected brand like REI? You don’t need us to tell you the Flash Hyperstretch Fleece is an amazing deal. Unfortunately, it’s only on sale in two colorways, and that might mean there isn’t much stock—nab yours ASAP before your size sells out.
