Bomb Story: Every hero deserves a villain and in the case of Adam Bomb Squad, Badam fits the bill. Badam’s behavior and attitude are derived from the core streetwear coolguys that grumbled and hated in the early 2000s. He is never excited about anything, is irritated by Adam Bomb’s popularity, and wants nothing to do with the Adam Bomb Squad. The only reason why he sticks around is because he secretly enjoys the limelight. His bitterness is what constitutes his identity. Things always suck until he can look back on it later and say he did it first. Badam is as classical streetwear as it gets... The Pure Badam is the classic Badam Bomb logo imagined in a number of The Hundreds-approved colorways, pulled directly from our base palette. Unlike most of the other art in the ABS collection, this NFT features the only Badam Bomb that is colored up in these tones. | 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.
