Stüssy was founded by Shawn Stussy in 1980 in Laguna Beach, California. Originating from the surf culture, Stüssy gained popularity in the 1980s and 90s by incorporating elements from hip-hop, punk, and skate subcultures into its designs. The brand's distinctive logo, originally Shawn Stussy's signature, and products like graphic T-shirts and bucket hats have become streetwear staples.
