Bomb Story: Tourist Adam is a nod to the Venice Beach souvenir shirts that grace the boardwalk. Over the decades, those tacky tees have served to become a uniform of sorts for out-of-towners to our city of Los Angeles and the greater California. But, they can also serve as rich inspiration material for T-shirt designers. There were two different ways we printed this design for the season, depending on the T-shirt color. This one knocked out the eyes and other elements to be clear, to save money in printing white ink on a white blank.| Background Story:
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.
