While we were in Chicago for the Bank of America Chicago Marathon, The Shoe Addicts took some time to visit the NIKETOWN CHICAGO store on Michigan Avenue. As the Shoe Addicts note, the NIKETOWN stores are like cathedrals of Nike sport, superstores of all things Nike, and a celebration of the SWOOSH.
The NIKETOWN CHICAGO store, during the week of the marathon, celebrated the marathon, with some fun displays and some great special products for the marathon.
Make sure, when you get to the Windy City, you put the NIKETOWN CHICAGO on your bucket list!
