Bomb Story: Andy Warhol's pop art perspective on advertising and celebrity culture influenced much of streetwear visuals over the generations. Warhol and graphic T-shirts have another thing in common, however - they both legitimize silkscreen printing as a veritable art form.

Horizontal stripes, especially of the yarn-dyed variety, are a staple of The Hundreds' collection. Earlier on, they were derived from the surf knits and beachgoer patterns that graced the backs of Californians in the 1980s. Examples include Hang Ten, OP, Quiksilver, and Gotcha. In the following decade, independent skate brands and rave companies capitalized on stripes across boxy, baggy tops. Whether they're fatter stripes across neighborhood-sanctioned Charlie Browns or pinstripes across suiting or a baseball jersey, The Hundreds' stripes speak to a spectrum of subcultures.
