 	1950s 	The original Chip and Dale costumes, like the majority of early Disney characters costumes, originated with the Disney sections of the Ice Capades shows of the early 1950s. Chip and Dale were borrowed by Disney for the opening of Disneyland in 1955. Chip's eyes faced forward while Dale's eyes were crossed. Chip and Dale had ringed collars on the heads.
 	1960-1968 	In the 1960s, Chip and Dale looked identical, with no character distinctions between them.
 	1968-1980 	The 1970s Chip and Dale costumes introduced unique head shapes to give individual personalities and looks to make them easier to tell apart. Chip and Dale are more cartoon-like in appearance than any other version up to this point. Dale was given different designs to differentiate from Chip including thicker eyelids, a rounder and browner nose and two separate teeth on both sides of his mouth.
 	1981-Present	The current Chip and Dale costumes, seen since the early 1980s, have gotten new, smaller heads with bulging cheeks, and the extra neck fabric was removed. Chip and Dale also have been given distinct characteristics. Now, their hands are four-fingered.
 	2008-Present	The articulated versions of Chip and Dale, seen in various live shows. Notice that Dale has a hairpiece on the top, just like his animated version. Chip and Dale are also slightly shaggier. Their brown fur have gone more reddish.
