Atticus is a brand of clothing founded in 2001 by Mark Hoppus (who has since sold his share), Tom DeLonge and their childhood friend Dylan Anderson. The brand continues to grow and follow its historic roots, with a strong connection with musicians.
The name Atticus Clothing was derived from several places, one being the main character's father in the book "To Kill a Mockingbird" by the author Harper Lee. In addition to the literary connection the name is derived from Herodes Atticus, a Greek rhetorician who spent his fortune supporting music and the arts
The Atticus logo, created by Dylan Anderson, depicts a bird lying on its back in an almost cartoon death position, inspired by the "To Kill a Mockingbird" title.
The company was heavily influenced by music and released three volumes of their "Dragging The Lake" compilation CDs, featuring songs from bands such as Blink-182, Alkaline Trio, New Found Glory, Name Taken, Bane, Rocket From The Crypt, Jimmy Eat World, Taking Back Sunday, Death Cab for Cutie and Coheed and Cambria.
