Bomb Story: It's safe to say that youth culture hones in on two decades prior as a focal point for nostalgia and trend resurgence. In the early years of The Hundreds (early 2000s), we scanned '80s comics and '90s cartoons. Twenty years later, we hearken back to the 2000s thesmselves, which emphasized anime as the preferred storytelling form. Bobby grew up on Dragon Ball Z, Sailor Moon, Trigun: The Planet Gunsmoke, and Cowboy Bebop. Most recently, The Hundreds collaborated with One Piece. Anime Adam tips its hat to a significant piece of Asian pop culture that went global. | 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. Of all the all-over-prints The Hundreds was responsible for during this time, Cherries was Ben's least favorite. But Bobby loved the kitschy nature, Americana flair, and the rockabilly/punk connotations.
