Bomb Story: It's odd in hindsight, but there was frantic speculation in 2012 that the world was slated to end on December 21. This was theorized on the fact that the Mayan Calendar, which spans 5,125 years starting in 3114 B.C., marked the end of a cycle on December 21, 2012. As far as we can tell, the physical earth remains, but it can also be argued that this was the beginning of the end (or end of the beginning) on a bunch of other fronts. | Background Story: The Hundreds' most iconic repeating pattern is the Paisley print. The irony? The message got lost. In fact, Bobby was never even a fan of the paisley design. It was a reference to bandana print, but the world glommed onto those trademark buta drops. So, over the years, we have re-worked the Paisley print throughout collections, and in the early 2010s, it returned as the Bandana Print. For the first time, we got to appreciate the Paisley in its orignal, intended form.
