Good luck. Not easy. Probably best to order online and then use expedited shipping if you need it by Christmas.

Maybe Wal-Mart but you'd probably have to go out to DeKalb/Sycamore to find it.

Sometimes they have small sections in the sports/caps apparel places at Woodfield in Schaumburg.

Online is your best and only bet. Unless you make the trek to DeKalb. I've been making custom NIU gear as I feel like the University bookstore (Follett) lacks the creativity that the VCB had.

Dick’s in Oswego and Geneva carry some gear. You can usually find NIU hats at any Lids stores.

Nice, do you have a link to your creations?

Oh no. Lol. I'm simply just buying blank unbranded stuff and ironing and stitching on NIU logos.

Gotcha. I agree though that the Ubookstore and even the VCB lacks creative NIU gear. There may be a business opportunity to get some fresh designs and looks to NIU gear as the only real new designs I have see are from the esports team.

I heard someone has a ton of NIU rain panchos.
