HERO DEAL — Mountain Hardwear Men's Summit Grid Half Zip Fleece — $33.98 at Mountain Hardwear Outlet. A grid fleece at $33.98 vs the $85.00 on Mountain Hardwear's own product page (Style #2105701) — a genuine 60% off, the deepest cut in today's drop. No code needed. THE CATCH: it's Last Chance stock and Last Chance means ALL SALES FINAL — no returns or exchanges. Know your size in Mountain Hardwear's standard fit before you buy.

Danner Trail 2650 Mid GTX Hiking Boots, Men's, Dusty Olive — $160.93 at REI. $160.93 compared to $229.95 on REI's own page — 30% off, math checks out. Gore-Tex, mid height, fall-hiking season. No code needed. THE CATCH: discontinued colorway (Dusty Olive is the whole deal); reviews say it fits slightly large and the review sample is thin (5 of 7 recommend). Safety net: REI returns — 365 days for members, 90 days for non-members. Link: https://www.rei.com/product/239542/danner-trail-2650-mid-gtx-hiking-boots-mens?sku=2395420003
