Today, StockX takes another leap forward in our evolution from a sneaker marketplace to a true “Stock Market of Things.” Over the past year, we’ve applied the mechanics of our sneaker exchange and the principles of price transparency and authenticity to several new and diverse markets, including watches, handbags, and streetwear. Now, we’re expanding our streetwear market once again. Starting today, you can buy and sell 100% authentic KAWS apparel, accessories, and collectibles right here on StockX.

Brian Donnelly, AKA KAWS, is among the most renowned and prolific artists of his generation. Based out of Brooklyn, KAWS spent the last two decades producing work that effortlessly straddles the fields of fashion, high art, and commerce. Over the years, he has collaborated with some of the biggest names in sneakers and streetwear, including brands like Supreme, Nike, Vans, BAPE, and Comme des Garcons. His subversive and iconic art and designs have appeared everywhere from museum collections to album covers to public installations, including, most recently, right outside the StockX world headquarters in downtown Detroit.

In addition to these iconic works of art, KAWS has produced merchandise and figures that have developed a cult-like following amongst fans of pop art, streetwear, and sneakers. Look no further than any sneakerhead’s apartment setup on Instagram and you’re sure to find a plush toy or a companion figure chilling in the background. Now those pieces can be added to your collection with the ease and confidence you’ve come to expect from the StockX platform. Start shopping today!
