Famous Stars and Straps (FSAS) was founded in 1999 by Travis Barker, drummer of +44 and Blink 182 and is easily recognised by the brand's "F" logo or 'Badge of Honor'. Influenced by punk rock and hip-hop, the Famous Stars And Straps clothing line has now become a major player in MTV-generation fashion. FSAS clothing is worn by many celebrities including Barker himself, his band mates Tim Armstrong, Rob Aston and Mark Hoppus, as well as Lee Gaze of Lostprophets, Matt Tuck of Bullet For My Valentine and Synyster Gates of Avenged Sevenfold.
