Bomb Story: Adam Bomb Squad is a worldwide phenomenon with artists and contributors chiming in from around the globe. Artist Iwan Smit hails from The Netherlands and contributes this Adam Bomb to the collection. As far as the meaning? ""I don’t like pre-chewing the content of the illustrations, and I find it hard to answer the question of what the story is behind the images.” In other words, Smit likes it when people let their own imagination tell the story.| 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. Bobby designed Pins as a tribute to punk rock safety-pinned patches. Jay Z came out of retirement for his Hangar Tour that year, and he wore the Pins hoodie onstage. That photo headlined MTV, CNN, and USA Today. It wasn't long before fast-fashion retailer Forever 21 and other sharks jumped on the pattern, turning it into a quick-lived moment in the marketplace.
