#, #, #, #

Swinger’s is the new Frank’s is the new burrito truck. Where else can you find the world’s best Soyrizo, tattooed waitresses, and our crew on the regular?

MIGHTY HUNGRY

Denis and Christine (Mighty Healthy) are in town from Brooklyn…

Buscemi (Lotto) took us to the #1 sushi spot in LA. Except it’s in the Valley. Not that there’s anything wrong with that.!!!..

Get the mozzarella cheese tempura roll. It’s pretty much a deep-fried cheese stick, except it’s sushi, so it’s “ethnic” and therefore “better for you.”

SHADES OF GREY

#

Just outside of Los Angeles is the historic community of Pasadena. Known for really huge porches and lawns, and iced-tea summer weather, Pasadena is also recognized in the streetwear world for being the home of the Greyone Army and their sister shop, Blitz.

Although the boutique opened its Old Town Pasadena location just earlier this year, they have some new developments under way…

…stocking the best in 10Deep, Crooks, Y-3, Hysteric Glamour, Tsubi, and The Hundreds. But of course.

Speaking of which, they got our Fall Collection in, so if you’ve been sleeping, you know where to go.

I always thought our crew was sturdy, but the G1 Army stands pretty thick…

Yeah, definitely cooler than us. And probably cooler than you.

Yasi stopped by, and wanted to point out that Grey One has been recognized in Pasadena Weekly, not only as the best Men’s clothing boutique in the city, but Women’s as well.

YUMMY

“t” is for TRUTH. I won’t lie to you, it’s vegan food. But if this is what going vegan is gonna taste like, then tell me where to sign up for the Animal Liberation Front. Get the BLTA at “t” on Fairfax. Next door to Supreme. If you run into Ben’s voracious appetite and Paula’s sultry glow, you know you’re at the right place.

THE STORE IS CLOSED

Well, closed until Monday so we can take inventory. In the meantime please go to one of the many fine TH retailers across the world to pick up the new season. When the store re-opens Monday we will pick up where we left off, and be taking International orders.

GOT MY VANS ON

#, #

For their latest season of apparel, Supreme worked closely with photographer Ari Marcopoulos for a variety of pieces.  One of those projects was an exclusive collaboration with Vans, featuring Marcopoulos’ photo-print, which flew off the shelves down the street on Fairfax at Supreme’s LA location.  The Versus crew got hooked with pairs…

as did Mark, who drove all the way up from the depths of San Diego.

WE’RE BAAAAAAAAAAAACK

Ahem…. umm..hello? Is this thing on??

After a brief hiatus, The Hundreds is back online with version 780.0. Being a complete ritalin-head, I’ve switched the site up about 42 times in the past 2 years, but this time I actually had to bring in the big guns to set it off. Much thanks to Bart and Erik at 530 for working with us on the re-vamped website.

Pleasantries aside, you’ll see that everything’s changed, …while pretty much staying exactly the same. It’s like Dom Week here at The Hundreds, as we break off a long-overdue “Chronicle” in “The Zine” with Dominick Deluca (Brooklyn Projects) and a HOMEYS episode at Dom’s crib over on “Tube.” We’ve added some Myspace-isms on “Bombsquad” and some other little odds and ends, here and there, and everywhere.

Most importantly, our new Fall Collection has finally dropped in “The Shop.” Comprised of our newest graphic t-shirts, basic sweatshirts, and hats, as you can see, this season’s themes revolve around our backgrounds in the punk subculture, workwear, and the early 90s-era skate/street aesthetic. My personal favorites are the collaborative jump-offs with Avail and H20, but hey, that’s just me.

Expect the features to grow regularly, and don’t forget that the drops for our Public Label cut-n-sew program and our top-secret Tens project are just around the corner…

Thanks for sticking with us.
