They have great, knowledgeable people working here, and others too, so be sure to ask the right person for help...if they don’t make statements like “I’d trust my life with this...” then try again.Upvoted 1 week ago- I love REI! Wax for $20 (if you're a member) and done in 24-48 hrs! So hurry up & be part of the co-op. LOVE their own REI brand products (cheaper and well made). Let's not forget the helpful staff.
Well organized with very helpful employees. A breath of fresh air compared to its competitors (Paragon & EMS). Love that they kept a lot of the original architectural details.
Kristina RudicApril 8, 2017If you're into the outdoors, this store will be your little sanctuary. Staff is knowledgeable and nice. Selection is great too. Become a member for only $20 and enjoy discounts forever!
Ashley RoseMarch 5, 2016Join the co-op membership and get a dividend back on all you spend. Great sales on bikes, gear and attire. Don't forget the classes at this soho location.
Really impressed by how helpful the staff is. They're genuinely not helping you out just to make a sale and are super helpful to people with any level of outdoors experience. Definitely will return.
Daniel L.July 10, 2012Join the co-op membership for $20.00 and the benefits come in quickly. The best one? 100% customer satisfaction. I've never had a problem returning anything here with good reason.
If you plan on spending >$200 in your life, spend the $20 on a lifetime membership. Gets you 10% back on all purchases, as well as incredible discounts on all rental gear
Citi BikeMay 3, 2015Check the events calendar for free Citi Bike Street Skills classes held in the REI classroom downstairs about once a month. Free 24-hr passes to participants. Dock a bike right out front on Lafayette!- Good selection, friendly and helpful staff, good prices (and you get a dividend and discounts if you're a member, which is free!)
Shawn C.April 4, 2015If you're from Colorado, you'll be very disappointed at the quality and selection here. It's very well-stocked if you're biking or doing some casual camping, but lacking in almost every other area.
Fitz MaroMay 23, 2014For slightly hidden clearance gear, head to the bottom of the store (2 floors down) and you'll see a rack dead ahead. Usually from the most recent season
Damian BayonaDecember 24, 2015Friendly and knowledgable staff. If your buying an expensive item i.e. above $200, it probably makes sense spring for the lifetime membership
Lydia VanWormerMarch 14, 2017Love R.E.I. for their unbeatable return policy. Great one stop shop for your next adventure outside of the concrete jungle!! 😎
Apart from anything-you-could-possibly-need outdoors shopping, they also offer free classes like Bike Maintenance 101 and more.
Recover Reputation, Online Management GiovincoOctober 24, 2017REI is clearly the best, and are way better than Paragon. But that said, researching very specific items are best found by searching online.- DoubleDeuceMay 15, 2015One of my favorites for specialty nutrition for those of us that don't reach for the Gator/Power-ade (or equivalent) drinks.
Come here for all your outdoor needs. This flagship store has skiing, hiking, biking, climbing and other goods.
Very helpful staff, very calm and relaxed vibe, near subway station, got lots of hiking and outdoors gear!
Brian StraussJuly 19, 2016Three levels of stuff you mostly don't need, unless of course you're glmaping.
My home away from home. I need to leave my wallet before entering though...hah! Super awesome selections and super helpful staff.
Paul SailerNovember 14, 2012Trail running shoes are hard to come by in the asphalt jungle of NYC. REI is your best bet for a selection and knowledgeable salespeople.
Eunice KimSeptember 18, 2015The REI membership is worth it. You can make back the cost of the membership with a medium-large purchase. You're also supporting an amazing company.
My fav place to buy outdoor gears. Their return policy is not as awesome before, but still great imo
Amy Johnson CookSeptember 25, 2014So glad there's finally an REI outpost in the city. Great gear, recommendations & don't forget they do trips & classes!- ISSO - Columbia UniversityAugust 6, 2015Although downtown from campus, check it out for a selection of sporting goods. It's just south of Houston St.
Mark GrahamJanuary 17, 2015Employees are great here. Extremely helpful and go above and beyond. Great selection for thr great outdoors
LOVE REI. so helpful and friendly. And really know their stuff
- Make sure to get an REI membership if you're spending a fair amount here. It pays dividends annually.
- David HowlandApril 1, 2017Awesome outdoor store in the middle of New York. Helpful staff and full selection.
Naveeshini NairFebruary 2, 2019I absolutely love this store!So many options to choose from and staff was helpful!
Stare at the promotional video for GoPro for a while. Then close your eyes and imagine you could jump / fly / dive / skate / surf like that. Then buy a water bottle and walk out.- Get your bike or skis tuned for the season. Get a lifetime membership and enjoy the discounts and end of year check back. $Holla
etta yAugust 10, 2016Super fun shopping for outdoorsy stuff. They reaaaally want you to become a member though.
Very helpful honest staff, good for camping,biking, but limited on other sports
Brendan WeibelJuly 30, 2013Top notch customer service, as always! Makes a great way to star the day dealing with smiling happy people.
Karl With A "K"September 16, 2015Solid selection and has two floors. Clothes and shoes are found downstairs.
Natalie VFebruary 27, 2016Great sales, but tonight to get help in the shoe section as it's usually crowded
David GuerrieriSeptember 16, 2016Good selection and knowledgable staff. We got out tent here for the PCT! Hike on!
Meg FarmerMarch 16, 2015Three floors of Awesomeness. Also, I swear the most attractive men in the city are hanging out here.
Alan CordovaNovember 13, 2011Sign up for membership ASAP, then brag to your friends about your low number (just don't visit Seattle, where the old-timers will have you beat by several orders of magnitude). Read more
Good for camping gear and cycling accessories. Men's apparel lacking, and buy a bike at a real bike shop.
Carmen da SilvaDecember 2, 2011Bike/ski tune-up/repair and tent, pack, stove, pole and snowshoe rental in the basement along with a classroom for educational events!!
BenFebruary 14, 2015Super helpful staff, one of the best places to go to get clothes for adventuring.
