Bomb Story: Before (and hopefully after) we became friends, Top Chef winner Michael Voltaggio was a big fan of our brand. So when he launched a sandwich concept (that was packaged in paper bags) tied to his famed LA-based ink restaurant, he asked Bobby Hundreds to design the logo in the vein of our mascot Adam Bomb. Over time, the collaboration became the logo for the restaurant itself, albeit altered a bit. There’s a much greater story here, but we can’t get into it. It involves tattoos, miscommunication, and a tiny bit of regret. But in the end, we both won.| 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.
