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 filled the eyes and other elements of the character.| Background Story:
If there was ever a pattern that encapsulated The Hundreds, it would be Paisley. Our first big hit, the one that put us on the map, was the all-over-print Paisley hoodie from 2005. There's an unabridged version of this story in Bobby's book, but that sweatshirt sold so much, and sold out so quickly overnight, that we allocated all of those funds to building our first flagship retail store on the corner of Fairfax and Rosewood. The pattern was designed in 2004, on a lesser-remembered piece called the ""Bandana"" zip-up. Over the years, those clusters of buta droplets continued onto The Hundreds T-shirts, across cut-n-sew collections, New Era fitteds, and collaborations with artists. The Paisley print not only defined us, but greater streetwear, as it trickled down into the work of later brands and designers.
