Bomb Story: While most Badam Bombs are intricately drawn and complex in nature, Simple Badam is a classic, 1-color version of the villain. Although he started off as a mascot, Badam Bomb has become one of the brand's logos over time. That requires a distillation of the design down to an easy and printable mark. There are a legion of The Hundreds followers who prefer a subtle, timeless Simple Badam over any other. | 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.
