Bomb Story: Skulls are often used in our messaging to speak on the souls invested in The Hundreds. The best illustration of this was at the foot of The Hundreds Los Angeles, our first flagship on Rosewood Ave. On both sides of the front entrance, there were skeleton graves dedicated to Ben and Bobby. It wasn't as much a morbid thought as it was a metaphor for how much of our lives we poured into the brand.| Background Story: The foundation of The Hundreds is streetwear, and at the foundation of streetwear is the graphic T-shirt. From our beginnings in the Fall of 2003, The Hundreds has relied on the tubular, open-ended cotton of a boxy, blank as our canvas. This is the same T-shirt that Bobby and Ben wore growing up, mixing and matching them 3 for $10 at the local swap meets. The independent skate brands of the 1990s, the streetwear brands of the early 2000s, all co-signed the same cut. Even when the clothing industry chased ringspun apparel or fashion silhouettes, The Hundreds held to the inspirational baseline. Our solid backgrounds are hues from the original swatch card that we built the brand off of.
