Travis Barker flashes his tattooed torso as he unveils new Clocks + Colours ... trends now
Travis Barker put his body artwork on display in a stylish set of black-and-white photographs for the release of his new jewelry collection.
The 47-year-old Blink-182 drummer and husband to Kourtney Kardashian posed shirtless in photos he posted to Instagram on Thursday in which he was decked out in gleaming items from his new collaboration with the punk- and heavy metal–inspired jewelry company Clocks + Colours.
Several of Travis' new pieces appeared to be modeled on classic chains that looked as if they could have locked up a bike or served an industrial purpose.
'Designed some cool jewelry pieces with my friends @clocksandcolours ☠️⛓️,' Travis captioned his post, adding safety pin, skull and chain emojis.

In one photo showing him from the waste up, Travis gazed dramatically off to the side while sporting a thick silver chain around his throat.
He wore a similarly designed bracelet, which had extra links that dangled from his wrist.
The rocker wore a thicker chain around his neck in a photo snapped from the back.
The individual links appeared to have designs etched into them, and pointy silver spikes were also thrown into the mix.

Another closeup featured another smaller chain with more modest links and similar spikes attached to it.
The safety pin has a long legacy with punk rock, as originators of the genre used them both for functional purposes (to hold together tattered clothing) and for purely decorative purposes, so it made sense that Travis would go back to his roots with safety-pin inspired designs.
The drummer highlighted on chain from his collection that was made of interlocking safety pins, but instead of a standard lock, the pins were designed with skull-shaped locks for a particularly edgy feel.
The skull imagery was replicated in much greater detail with a silver ring he highlighted in closeup.
Travis reached up to adjust his black sunglasses to show off the jewelry, which featured a grinning skull on his index finger that was surrounded by engraved flames.
