Genuinely friendly employees will help you make sense of the options. Great sales on occasion. The membership is totally worth it if you buy at least one big thing.

Time Out Chicago

Cover your bases, not to mention your kids’, too, with two floors packed to the gills with everything from skiing equipment and apparel to tents and accessories such as fancy helmet cameras .

BigTab R.N.

They have a rock in here at an incline for you to test potential hiking boots/shoes on

Decent selection of almost every outdoors category. The biggest perk is the knowledgeable staff who can really relate to your intended activity.

Alicia J

Ahh. It's amazing and full but I suggest calling if you have something specific you need to make sure it's in stock.

L K

Great selection of outdoor gear. Join their co-op program for life and you'll get money back at the end of the year!

Elle Emm

Park in the REI garage attached to the building. Do not park in the lot across the street or you will be towed!

Join the coop if you plan on being a frequent customer.
