Ready, set, shop — the REI Labor Day Sale has officially begun with up to 40 percent off editor-loved brands including Nikes, Adidas, Hoka, Solomon, On Running, and so much more. The annual end-of-summer REI sale and REI member sale is the best time to shop for fall footwear, from Nike running sneakers and Adidas and Solomon trail-running shoes to women’s hiking sandals and pickleball shoes. You don’t want to miss out on these REI clearance discounts, because the gear retailer often skips out on Black Friday shoe deals — meaning that Labor Day 2023 may be your last chance to cash in on 50 percent off Adidas Ultraboost Light sneakers, price cuts on Nike React Infinity Run Flyknit 3 Sneakers, and celebrity-loved On Cloud 5 sneakers.
While you’re enjoying some sweet R&R, the shoe sales at REI.com are rolling out now through the long weekend. You can start shopping the deals right now through September 4th, but it’s a good idea to hit the ground running ASAP, before coveted Nike walking shoes on sale or Hoka sales on women’s walking shoes and men’s walking shoes sell out. It’s prime time to snag discounts on your next go-to pair of everyday shoes, top-rated performance footwear, or hiking boots for men to set you up for all your fall adventures as summer comes to an end. And if you suffer from common foot problems, you’re in luck — this sale also includes markdowns on walking shoes for plantar fasciitis, stability running shoes, shoes for knee pain, and shoes for back pain.

If you want to take extra advantage of REI’s shoe sales, REI Co-op members will have access to the most savings this weekend. They’ll get an extra 20 percent off of Re/Supply footwear and winter sports gear, including Vans snowboard boots and Salomon ski boots for women and men. Anyone can sign up for an annual membership with a one-time fee of $30 — this not only grants bonus savings this weekend, but also includes benefits like a yearly Co-op Member Reward of 10 percent back on eligible purchases and 10 percent off adventure trips and expert classes hosted by REI.
REI is offering tons of amazing Labor Day shoe deals, so we’ve set up your shoe shopping spree by scrolling and scouting the best discounts for you to grab before the sale ends on Tuesday — or worse, before your sizes sell out.
