Bomb Story: Every hero deserves a villain and in the case of Adam Bomb Squad, Badam fits the bill. Badam’s behavior and attitude are derived from the core streetwear coolguys that grumbled and hated in the early 2000s. He is never excited about anything, is irritated by Adam Bomb’s popularity, and wants nothing to do with the Adam Bomb Squad. The only reason why he sticks around is because he secretly enjoys the limelight. His bitterness is what constitutes his identity. Things always suck until he can look back on it later and say he did it first. Badam is as classical streetwear as it gets... The Pure Badam is the classic Badam Bomb logo imagined in a number of The Hundreds-approved colorways, pulled directly from our base palette. Unlike most of the other art in the ABS collection, this NFT features the only Badam Bomb that is colored up in these tones. | 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.
