While REI encourages shoppers to "opt outside" between Black Friday and Cyber Monday, if you need to gear up to get out, the retailer just launched a barrage of discounts on top-selling sleeping bags, Garmin smartwatches, puffer jackets, and so much more. But one of the best discounts during REI's cyber sale is on this iconic pair of Prana hiking pants, which are now less than $50.
Prana’s Stretch Zion Slim Pants II are on sale for $47, which is 50% off the retail price of $95. These well-loved pants have 175 five-star ratings from happy shoppers who say that they are “sturdy but stylish” and “great fitting.” Right now, they're available in four handsome colors and come in waist sizes 28 through 42 and lengths from 30 to 34. If you want a more spacious fit, the regular Zion pants are also 50% off, while the Zion shorts are a generous 30% off.

It’s a great day when you finally find a pair of durable, great-fitting, and comfortable pants for outdoor adventures. These slim-fitting pants are just that, being made out of a stretchy recycled performance nylon that blocks UV rays, protects against abrasions, keeps wrinkles away, and sheds water. They are also light and breathable, plus, they're loaded with features that’ll keep you wearing them outdoors and indoors. An integrated, adjustable web belt dials in your fit; snaps on the legs let you roll them up to cool off or cross streams; and a ventilated inseam gusset gives you more mobility and breathability. The front pockets are mesh-lined for drainage and ventilation, the cargo pocket has dual zippers on the top and side, and one of the back pockets has a flap for more secure storage.
Happy campers loved that the durable hiking pants were comfortable. “Stretchy and versatile; exactly what you’d expect for a day at the wall or hiking,” a shopper said. Another shopper chimed in, saying that they are “wicked comfortable and flexible.” One shopper urged others to pick a pair up: “You should buy these pants—I have one pair I've worn almost daily for the past four years.”
