Travis Barker Sells His Bloody Blink-182 Tour Vans for $4,000
One lucky fan can now walk a mile in Travis Barker’s shoes after the drummer sold a pair of his go-to Vans for $4,000.
Barker, 48, offered up the kicks — which he wore throughout Blink-182’s 2023 world tour — via collectibles website Trophy. As seen in images on the website, the size 9.5 Vans appear worn, distressed and covered in Barker’s own blood. The shoes were shipped out in a “museum grade display case” and included a signed certificate of authenticity, per Trophy. The identity of the customer who scored the footwear has not yet been revealed.
In addition to the Vans, the Trophy collection includes Barker’s bloodstained black pants from the tour — which sold for $6,000 — as well as several sets of drumsticks and an array of drum heads.
“In 2023, Travis Barker set out on an unforgettable global tour with Blink-182 leaving behind a trail of extraordinary performances,” reads a description for the collection. “Capturing the essence of these iconic shows, Trophy has proudly collaborated with Travis to curate a unique collection of tour-used, show-played memorabilia throughout the 2023 World Tour and recording of Blink-182’s latest album, One More Time.”
Proceeds from the Travis Barker x Trophy sales are going toward Lost But Not Forgotten CA, a nonprofit organization with the goal of identifying and adopting teenagers in the Roseville area “who are experiencing a temporary hardship that doesn’t allow them to have a normal Christmas.”
Blink-182 — which includes Barker, guitarist Tom DeLonge and vocalist Mark Hoppus — kicked off their Rock Hard Tour in May, taking a pause following the birth of Barker and wife Kourtney Kardashian‘s first child together last month. The group will hit the road again in summer 2024 in support of their new album, One More Time, which dropped in October.

Us Weekly confirmed in November that Kardashian, 44, gave birth in Los Angeles. In October, Barker revealed that he was expecting Kardashian to give birth “either Halloween or, like, the first week of November.” He added that he and Kardashian had settled on the name Rocky Thirteen, which Barker first floated as a possibility in July.
“Rocky George played guitar for Suicidal Tendencies,” he said during an interview for Complex’s “GOAT Talk” video series, explaining why he liked the moniker. “And 13 is just the greatest number of all time.” He added that the first name could also be a nod to 1976’s Rocky, which he called “the greatest boxing movie of all time.”
