Bomb Story: Collage Adam is a dissection of Adam Bomb, in the sense that we wanted to see how familiar our iconic mascot could be if divided into fragments. Along the way, Collage started reminding us of those plastic, party-gift puzzles that you'd receive as a child. This was one of the most popular T-shirt designs of that year and this NFT stands as a staff favorite.| 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. In stretching our imaginations around repeating patterns, Bobby thought of Escher and tesselations. At the time, we were traveling a lot between LA and New York. Since The Hundreds was heavily influenced by the artists and culture that anchor these cities, Bobby drew a skyline that represents Los Angeles. When flipped upside down, it calls out New York City.
