Bomb Story: If you've read Bobby's book, you know about our longstanding relationship with one of the OGs of streetwear: Mike Brown of True SF. True continues as one of the Bay Area's pioneer streetwear retailers and we were honored to be stocked on their shelves when we were first starting out. As part of their Native Leagues project in February of 2010, we offtered them a Raiders-inspired Adam Bomb, who has since cameo'd in other collections.| 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 Stüssy. 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.
