Super great place for gear. Shopping experience was awesome, sales folks were helpful. In Santa Barbara for a week and needed a good backpack.

Went to REI today to help find a new backpacking backpack. Met Patrick and he was awesome! Super friendly and helpful. Listened to me, understood what I needed it for/planning for upcoming trips, and spent the time to answer my questions and try out 4-5 different packs. Thank you for all your help and time!

The sales team at the Santa Barbara REI location was instrumental in educating us on the benefits of Gortex and how this material differs from other options. We ended up purchasing Gortex raincoats for our Alaskan adventure. It was a great purchase!
