Bomb Story: This 1980s iteration of Adam Bomb in Blades and floppy blonde hair is a part of the larger ""Styles"" T-shirt design from The Hundreds Summer 2007. The graphic is an appropriation of the hairstyle option posters that hang in neighborhood barbershops. Adam's hairdos, however, reference the various subcultures and eras that speak to The Hundreds' inspirations. In this case, it'd be '80s surf.| Background Story:
In the early 2000s, all-over-prints reigned supreme in independent streetwear. The trend was a response to the boring solids and understated color-blocking of the dominant skate and urban market. It also followed the footsteps of Nigo's A Bathing Ape camos. Smaller, T-shirt-based brands like ours tapped into the ancient screen-printing techniques of roller-printing, oversized screens, and belt-printing to execute messy patterns over seams, collars, and hemlines. In stretching our imaginations around repeating patterns, Bobby thought of Escher and tesselations. At the time, we were traveling a lot between LA and New York. Since The Hundreds was heavily influenced by the artists and culture that anchor these cities, Bobby drew a skyline that represents Los Angeles. When flipped upside down, it calls out New York City.
