KAWS started as a graffiti artist in New York, studied at the School of Visual Arts, and worked as an artist on animated titles like Daria and Doug. You see that visual sharpness in his footwear projects: outspoken, instantly recognizable, and marked by that subtle XX detail fans clock right away. His sneaker-world breakthrough? The Air Jordan 4 KAWS from 2017, with a translucent, glow-in-the-dark outsole effect that literally lit up his sculptural style.

Then came three-way drops with Nike and sacai on the Blazer Low, released in multiple variants: DM7901-200 (09-03-2021), DM7901-400 (27-11-2021), DM7901-600 (27-11-2021) and DM7901-500 (10-12-2021). KAWS moves fluidly beyond the basketball canvas too: The North Face ThermoBall Traction Mule VS KAWS (NF0A7W6I-KX7) landed on 25-10-2022. From layered Blazer experiments to functional mules, the range is wide, but the signature stays the same: art you can wear, with XX accents and a palette that isn’t afraid to be seen.
