Why We Love This Deal
We spotted end-of-season jacket deals left and right at REI in February and March, but apparently Cotopaxi didn’t get the memo: The brand is finally throwing out major discounts on its outerwear at the outdoor retailer. While most name-brand jackets have disappeared from sale sections, Cotopaxi has plenty of options with multiple colorways and sizes in stock, including this movement-friendly hooded jacket that’s perfect for spring.
The Cotopaxi Yermo Hooded Jacket is on sale for $90, a 48% discount from its normal price of $175. This jacket is available at that price across three colorways, and it has a full size range in stock. REI has the best overall deal on this layer: It’s cheaper here than at Nordstrom, and although Cotopaxi is selling it for $1 less in some alternate colorways, the brand has fewer sizes in stock.

What Shoppers Should Know
- Colorways Available: 3
- Sizes Available: S-2XL
- Fabric: 91% recycled polyester, 9% spandex
- Pockets: 5
- Best For: Hiking, trail running, rock climbing in chilly, damp weather
The Yermo is made from a blend of recycled polyester and a healthy dose of spandex, which makes the fabric super breathable and stretchy—ideal for sweat-inducing outdoor activities.
Although it isn’t advertised as a true fleece, you’ll get fleece-like comfort thanks to its interior brushed fabric, which offers a low-pile, soft texture against your skin. On the outside, the jacket is treated with a DWR finish to repel light precipitation and splashes, and its four zippered pockets give you a huge amount of room for storing small accessories and snacks. Better yet, the left chest pocket includes a dedicated phone sleeve for keeping your device secure.
And when the wind picks up or a rain shower moves your way, the attached hood with a visor will protect your head from the elements.

What Shoppers Are Saying
Although it might look like a fairly standard hooded jacket at first glance, shoppers have highlighted several features in their reviews that make the Yermo a standout.
Reviewers love it for running, cycling, and other high-intensity activities, and they said it’s “very lightweight with great utility.” Shoppers also noted the “fit is perfect,” and they loved the fabric, which offers “a lot of breathability while still keeping you dry.” Finally, multiple reviewers raved about the storage, saying this jacket has “tons of pockets” that can carry all your accessories for outdoor treks (or just while running errands).
The Yermo jacket is exactly the kind of layer you need for outdoor adventures this spring and beyond, and at nearly half off, now’s the time to grab it. REI’s on-sale Cotopaxi jackets are selling extremely quickly, and this one will be no different—grab yours while you can.
