Encyclopedia : A : AT : ATT : Atticus (clothing brand)
Atticus is a brand of clothing founded in 2001 by Mark Hoppus and Tom DeLonge of the pop-punk band blink 182.
Atticus' logo is a dead bird laying upside down. It is believed to be a pictorial representation of the novel To Kill a Mocking Bird by Harper Lee. The company's name is derived from the main character, Atticus Finch, who was voted the greatest hero of all time by the American Film Institute. Resting Bird which is owned by Hoppus and DeLonge is also based on this theme.
The company is heavily influenced by music and have released three volumes of their Dragging The Lake compilation CDs, featuring songs from bands such as New Found Glory, Bane, Jimmy Eat World, Taking Back Sunday, Death Cab for Cutie, and Rise Against.
