Seeking: Kayak suppliers in the Chicago area

Hi folks,

I live in Ireland but will be visiting my daughter in Chicago soon ( NW University ). I have built a strip-built cedar Guillemot 17 which I use on the river Shannon and lakes.

My question is... does anybody know of any suppliers of kayak equipment, clothing etc. near Evanston ?? I have great difficulty getting this sort of stuff here but hopefully can pick up some during my visit !!

I wish you all well, and please accept my thanks in advance for any assistance you can provide.

All the best
