Bomb Story: Dominick Deluca is the owner of Brooklyn Projects, the storied LA skate shop on Melrose. Dom is also like a big brother to Ben and Bobby, having been one of the first accounts to stock The Hundreds in the early 2000s. Dom asked/demanded that we do an Adam friend named Dom Bomb, sharing his physical features. Along with Adam, Madam, and Badam, Dom Bomb is one of the few recurring friends of the Squad.| 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.
