Kanye West Bear Rug - Shaped Man Cave Area Rug

This Kanye West bear shaped rug shows the cartoon bear mid-stride in a gray camo hoodie, blue jeans and a pair of high-top sneakers, one arm thrown out in front of him. His half-closed eyes and heavy black outline carry the whole character. The bear shaped rug is cut to the outline of the figure, so the raised arm, the bent leg and the sneaker toe all stick out as real edges of the rug.

A full-body character shape breaks up a floor in a way a rectangle never does. Put the bear beside a bed and he strides toward the door; place him in front of a wardrobe or a sneaker rack and the gap between arm and leg lets the floor show through.

The Design: Cartoon Bear Character

The drawing keeps to flat fills and one thick contour line - brown fur, cream sleeves, gray camo, strong blue jeans and blue accents on the shoes. The eyes are the detail worth noticing: one pink, one blue, both heavy-lidded, which gives the character its bored expression.

Kanye West Bear on Your Floor

The die-cut shaped edge follows the outstretched arm and the sneakers closely, and the stitched border keeps those thin extensions strong. The pile is low and plush, soft on bare feet in the morning, and the non-slip rubber backing keeps the bear from sliding on laminate or tile. It is machine washable on a gentle cold cycle, which brings the cream areas back after a winter of shoes in the room, and the printed colors are fade resistant. It suits a bedroom, kids room, gaming room or living room.

Sizes & Rug Level

Four sizes run from 60x90 cm (2x3 ft) as a bedside piece to 120x180 cm (4x6 ft), where he covers the space between a bed and a wall. Two levels: Standart, great everyday quality, and Premium, with a thicker, plusher pile and a tougher backing.

Quick Questions

Is it machine washable?

Yes. Use a gentle cold cycle and air dry it flat.

Does it slip on hard floors?

No, the rubber backing holds it in place on hard surfaces.

Can I put it over carpet?

Yes. Because so much of the design is cream and light gray, a darker carpet underneath makes the outline pop.

How do I flatten it when it arrives?

Unroll it face up for a day. The raised arm is the thinnest section, so a book on the fist overnight straightens it quickly.
