    It is garbage compared to what it once was. Once they stopped acting like an actual co-op, it was the end.

    I didn’t know REI was taking such a bath. It’s full in yuppie fashion now. It once was cooler but much smaller.

      Probably not great, but COVID really killed their non-retail business like trips and classes. I’m sure they lost a lot of money there.

      I’m surprised more outdoors companies didn’t lean into the “social distance, get outdoors” aspect.
