Bomb Story: Tourist Adam is a nod to the Venice Beach souvenir shirts that grace the boardwalk. Over the decades, those tacky tees have served to become a uniform of sorts for out-of-towners to our city of Los Angeles and the greater California. But, they can also serve as rich inspiration material for T-shirt designers. There were two different ways we printed this design for the season, depending on the T-shirt color. This one filled the eyes and other elements of the character.| 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.
