And while these chairs are usually whatever crappy plastic lawn chair we have sitting on our back deck, this year, we at UrbanMatter ask you to think outside of the box.<\/p>\n<p>Yup, this year the fine folks at <a href=\"http:\/\/chi.havas.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Havas<\/a> have teamed up with local artists and the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.lpcsonline.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Lincoln Park Community Services<\/a> to bring you what are, without question, the coolest dibs chairs we have ever seen. Designed by the likes of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/smellby\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Shelby Rodeffer<\/a>\u00a0(whose chair is pictured above) and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/practice_daily\/?hl=en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">David Jensen<\/a> (whose Old Style themed seat is spot on), the chairs range from snarky to silly in their treatment of Chicago&#8217;s most famous winter ritual.<\/p>\n<p>Now up for auction on eBay, all proceeds from the hilarious-yet-functional works of art will go to LPCS&#8217;s effort to combat homelessness, create housing and provide counseling by opening a new Old Town location. By marking your spot with one of these limited edition chairs, you can help guarantee that a fellow Chicago has a spot of their own to stay safe, warm and get the support they need.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_27312\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-27312\" style=\"width: 1000px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-27312\" src=\"https:\/\/urbanmatter.com\/chicago\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/X5B0666.jpg\" alt=\"Dibs Chair\" width=\"1000\" height=\"1500\" srcset=\"https:\/\/urbanmatter.com\/chicago\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/X5B0666.jpg 683w, https:\/\/urbanmatter.com\/chicago\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/X5B0666-600x900.jpg 600w, https:\/\/urbanmatter.com\/chicago\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/X5B0666-200x300.jpg 200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-27312\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><em>Photo Credit: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thisisdibs.org\/work\/#\/limited-edition-2\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">This is Dibs<\/a><\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The chairs themselves will be on display at Havas Chicago&#8217;s HQ until February 15th when the auctions will close.
