Bomb Story: Tomato Adam is an obscure, lesser-known Adam Bomb that's been buried in the archives. We can't even remember if and when it was produced, let alone if it was a collaboration(?). It was such a core piece and so under-the-radar, that many of the people here on staff didn't even know of its existence. This makes Tomato Adam one of the most fabled of all the Adam Bomb Squad and also, a member of the Food Family.| 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.
