I confess, I completely misread this place…read more I thought it was a place to ripoff tourists with "Alaska" clothing. Turns out, it's legit cold gear at decent prices. If you need gear for the cold and are only a casual hiker: this is the place to go. You pay the big bucks for cold weather gear that is light and breathable (if you need this, go to AMH), but if you just need cold gear for short hikes, or walking around town, or working outside: this is the place. I was impressed by how cheap their gloves are. I might start buying my ice climbing gloves here, instead of REI/AMH. If you're an Extratufsexual, you'll have a lot to chose from here.

When I walked in I was impressed by how easy it is to find what you are looking for ... At least to find where it would be if they have it . It seems like they do have a lot of good things . I browsed thru their outerwear and saw some nice name brand jackets I would like to have . I think they were selling the ones in good shape for about 70% off . The staff was helpful and friendly . When I checked out their website I was also impressed by their online presence . The hoarding Marmot is centrally located and plays an important role in our outdoor lifestyle .

REI Anchorage is in its third location since I started shopping here in the '80s. This one is way large. special shout out to the ski rental shop, and honorable mention to Marcus for taking the time to chat with us about what we needed, where the trails were good - etc. Rented two days for nice cc skiing at Kincaid, equipment was in great condition. ended up buying a pair of boots after great assistance with trying them on (though one does have to make oneself visible - the staffing is a little lean imo). all a way of saying, i am glad REI continues to be a great resource in my hometown. recommend you shop here.

No longer in stands by its 100% satisfaction guaranteed return policy. I went to return boots…read moretoday, they didn't have my size in the store so an REI employee told me to order a size 11 and a size 10.5 online, which I did. Today, two weeks later I went to return the size 11 boots that don't fit., that have never been worn outside, and was told that I've been banned from returns. I didn't receive any emails about this, I searched my email and my spam and deleted folders, nor did I receive any snail mail. I've been a member since 2008 and have spent over $40,000 at REI over the years, I guess that doesn't count for anything. For outdoor gear, I recommend shopping local and going to AMH. (Alaska, mountaineering and hiking.) Update: now every time I buy something from REI a manager has to come up and tell me about what a bad consumer I am before I'm allowed to buy something from them.
