Bomb Story: In keeping with the timelessness and heritage of The Hundreds, Talkie Adam is inspired by the classic ""talkie"" cartoons of yesteryear like in Mickey Mouse's debut film, Steamboat Willie. Therefore, he is painted in black/white and even his features have been edited to resemble the old-school style of animation.| Background Story: In the early 2000s, all-over-prints reigned supreme in independent streetwear. The trend was a response to the boring solids and understated color-blocking of the dominant skate and urban market. It also followed the footsteps of Nigo's A Bathing Ape camos. Smaller, T-shirt-based brands like ours tapped into the ancient screen-printing techniques of roller-printing, oversized screens, and belt-printing to execute messy patterns over seams, collars, and hemlines. Of all the all-over-prints The Hundreds was responsible for during this time, Cherries was Ben's least favorite. But Bobby loved the kitschy nature, Americana flair, and the rockabilly/punk connotations.
