Famous Stars and Straps (or simply Famous) is an American clothing and accessory line created by Travis Barker on December 8, 1999, best known for being the drummer in the band blink-182. The company is based in Ontario, California.
Famous Stars And Straps clothing is influenced by music genres such as punk rock and hip hop. Since their initial boom, Famous has become a respected brand in the skate, BMX, and motorcycle arenas with sponsored riders like Rick Thorne, Dave Dillewaard, and Luis Tolentino.
