One of KAWS' most prominent reoccurring characters is 'Chum', an adaption of the Michelin Man. 'Chum' is not only appealing and speaks to a wide audience across generations, but his playful temperament brings out the familiar child in us. 'Chum' started appearing in 2001 in a suite of five different colour ways and following the success of these works, 'Chum (Clear)' was created as an edition of 1000.
