Bomb Story: Much of The Hundreds' design inspiration pulls from '80s and '90s culture. The video games we played growing up employed 8-bit graphics, which had a maximum capacity of 256 colors. Soon after, the Sega Genesis and Turbo Grafx 16 consoles upped the graphics power to 16-bit, then 32-bit and so on. This one is an homage to the blocky pixel art that defined characters like Sonic the Hedgehog and Toejam & Earl. A throwback to simpler times and a reminder that while everything has changed, nothing has changed.| Background Story: 
Originating in Scotland as ""tartan,"" we now call this pattern of crisscrossed lines ""Plaid."" Growing up in Southern California during the '80s and '90s, plaid beach volleyball shorts were always in our purview, thanks to labels like Mossimo and Stssy. When we elevated to making cut-n-sew apparel like button-ups in the early 2000s, plaids made their way into our language as a nod to both the surf culture of the West Coast and Polo's influence on the East. In fact, every plaid speaks to a different subculture. Buffalo plaids were woven into the early New York hip-hop lumberjacks. Shadow plaids on swap meet Pendletons. And The Hundreds plaids, for all.
