Bomb Story: As far as we can remember, and we could be wrong here, Drop Adam never made it as an official T-shirt graphic for The Hundreds. In fact, we don't even remember the inspiration or reasoning behind the artwork. Our only thought is that this started off as part of a larger design that got scratched. We debated on including him in the collection, but he's so different, so odd, that we feel like he can make his home in the Adam Bomb Squad.| 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.
