Why We Love This Deal
For those still in search of gift ideas, REI’s Last-Minute Gifts sale is delivering some of the best value buys for outdoor lovers, and there are a few with massive discounts flying under the radar. While many are chasing the perfect jacket or ski gear during this sale, there's a cozy and comfortable pair of casual pants leftover from a prior season that's north of 50% off, but they're still good to wear at any time.
The REI Co-op Campwell Casual Pants are on sale for just $39 at REI, a 51% discount off their regular price of $80. They’re made tough enough for backcountry hikes, but they're still comfortable enough to relax around the campfire. Plus, if you order before 9 a.m. PST on Dec. 18, you can get them before Christmas. Two colors are still available and in stock, though that likely won't be the case for much longer.

What Shoppers Should Know

- Fit: Relaxed
- Leg Style: Tapered

These are best used as an easygoing, do-it-all pair of casual pants due in part to their hardy cotton-blend canvas that becomes softer the more they’re washed. It's also because they're stretchy, which ups the comfort. They have a relaxed fit that tapers just slightly past the knees, and an elastic waistband with a drawcord to keep things loose but secure.
Functionally, these pants hit a rarely-seen sweet spot between sweatpants and chinos. With these, you get a zipper fly and button closure, deeper-than-average pockets, and a durable canvas feel without the stiffness of regular utility pants. While they are perfect for camping, hikes, road trips, and more, they work just as well in fall and winter as a more elevated take on leisurewear.

Though there are fewer than 10 reviews, almost all agree that these are of “excellent quality.” One shopper noted that they’re “perfect for an athletic build,” and are made for “comfort,” adding that the color, fabric, and “thoughtful design” are all on point.
Another called them “comfortable casual pants for relaxing at home or around a campsite,” noting that the pockets and drawstrings are quite useful.
You’ll have to act fast to catch these Campwell pants before Christmas, but at $40, they're a no-brainer.
