Bomb Story: Kenny Scharf is living history. In the '80s downtown New York scene, Kenny's artistic rise ran alongside his friends Keith Haring and Jean-Michel Basquiat. Today, he stands on a body of iconic work that spans the globe. Our favorite thing about Kenny Scharf is that his graffiti still rules the streets, yet he can also hold down solo exhibitions at the finest galleries in the world. Kenny's characters are hard to miss as they're often painted on people's cars under his Karbombz program. Here's a Scharf-ized Adam Bomb.| 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. Bobby designed Pins as a tribute to punk rock safety-pinned patches. Jay Z came out of retirement for his Hangar Tour that year, and he wore the Pins hoodie onstage. That photo headlined MTV, CNN, and USA Today. It wasn't long before fast-fashion retailer Forever 21 and other sharks jumped on the pattern, turning it into a quick-lived moment in the marketplace.
