Bomb Story: At the start, The Hundreds was rooted in the '80s and '90s Southern California subcultures that comprised our youth. One big element of that season was rave culture, and most notably, rave flyers. There are entire Tumblrs and IG pages dedicated to the cult around these pocket-sized party ads. They shared the same glossy die-cut cardstock and early graphic design, but they each held their own emotions and memories from the ensuing events. Til Dawn Adam is referenced from one of the more popular rave flyers of the 1990s. | Background Story: Horizontal stripes, especially of the yarn-dyed variety, are a staple of The Hundreds' collection. Earlier on, they were derived from the surf knits and beachgoer patterns that graced the backs of Californians in the 1980s. Examples include Hang Ten, OP, Quiksilver, and Gotcha. In the following decade, independent skate brands and rave companies capitalized on stripes across boxy, baggy tops. Whether they're fatter stripes across neighborhood-sanctioned Charlie Browns or pinstripes across suiting or a baseball jersey, The Hundreds' stripes speak to a spectrum of subcultures.
