Bomb Story: At some point, The Hundreds was in collaborative talks with the now-defunct hipster children's television program, Yo Gabba Gabba. After submitting Adam Bomb concepts, they pulled the rug out from under us, ditching our project to work with a surf brand instead. We were disappointed and this draft of Adam was laid to rest. Funny to look back on how it all played out. Yo Adam lives!| Background Story: If there was ever a pattern that encapsulated The Hundreds, it would be Paisley. Our first big hit, the one that put us on the map, was the all-over-print Paisley hoodie from 2005. There's an unabridged version of this story in Bobby's book, but that sweatshirt sold so much, and sold out so quickly overnight, that we allocated all of those funds to building our first flagship retail store on the corner of Fairfax and Rosewood. The pattern was designed in 2004, on a lesser-remembered piece called the ""Bandana"" zip-up. Over the years, those clusters of buta droplets continued onto The Hundreds T-shirts, across cut-n-sew collections, New Era fitteds, and collaborations with artists. The Paisley print not only defined us, but greater streetwear, as it trickled down into the work of later brands and designers.
