Why We Love This Deal
It’s not a blowout savings event, and you won’t see it advertised anywhere, but REI is having something of a mini sale on top-rated Cotopaxi outerwear lately. Just last week, there was a fleece hoodie and a soft-shell jacket on sale with deep discounts of around half off, and today, REI has a Cotopaxi rain jacket on sale for over half off.
The Cotopaxi Cielo Rain Jacket is on sale for $70, a 51% discount from its normal price of $145 and a better deal than what Cotopaxi is offering on its website. Crucially, it’s available across a broad size range (in the Bluegrass/Silver Leaf colorway) when most other rain jackets in the REI sale section are nearly sold out. It's also very affordable: It beats the price of favorites like the Patagonia Torrentshell, REI Co-op Rainier, and TNF Alta Vista.

The Cielo is made from a fully recycled polyester fabric, and it’s built for robust water resistance: Its waterproof membrane and DWR finish prevent moisture from soaking through the jacket fabric, and the seams are fully taped to keep water from leaking in around the stitches.
The attached hood keeps your head out of the elements, and the full-zip design makes it easy to get on and helps you get extra ventilation, too. Velcro cuffs and an elastic hem lock out drafts, and three pockets keep a lockdown hold on your essentials.

What Shoppers Are Saying
The Cielo has racked up tons of positive reviews from REI shoppers.

Rain jackets are selling fast now that we’re in the middle of spring, and many size and colorway combos of the Cielo Rain Jacket are already sold out. Take advantage of this steep 51% discount and snag yours before they’re all gone.
