Chargement... This Is Not a T-Shirt: A Brand, a Culture, a Community--a Life in Streetwearpar Bobby Hundreds
![]() Aucun Actuellement, il n'y a pas de discussions au sujet de ce livre. ![]() ![]() This book is everything you want it to be and more. I don't know much about streetwear and the only reason I picked this book up was because, it passed through me before getting to the intended owner (my cousin). I have no idea what I expected going in, but I do know I got way much more than I bargained for. This was my first introduction to The Hundreds and I have to say, I am a tiny bit embarrassed that I didn't know of it's existence. It was a great story about the brand, the people behind the brand (both the community and founders) and so much more! I loved it so much After I'm done with this review, I am definitely headed to the hundreds website and digging through their sales section. aucune critique | ajouter une critique
The story of The Hundreds and the precepts that made it an iconic streetwear brand by Bobby Hundreds himself Streetwear occupies that rarefied space where genuine "cool" coexists with big business; where a star designer might work concurrently with Nike, a tattoo artist, Louis Vuitton, and a skateboard company. It's the ubiquitous style of dress comprising hoodies, sneakers, and T-shirts. In the beginning, a few brands defined this style; fewer still survived as streetwear went mainstream. They are the OGs, the "heritage brands." The Hundreds is one of those persevering companies, and Bobby Hundreds is at the center of it all. The creative force behind the brand, Bobby Kim, a.k.a. Bobby Hundreds, has emerged as a prominent face and voice in streetwear. In telling the story of his formative years, he reminds us that The Hundreds was started by outsiders; and this is truly the story of streetwear culture. InThis Is Not a T-Shirt, updated with a new introduction by the author plus a new 16-page full-color insert, Bobby Hundreds cements his spot as a champion of an industry he helped create and tells the story of The Hundreds--with anecdotes ranging from his Southern California, punk-DIY-tinged youth to the brand's explosive success. Both an inspiring memoir and an expert assessment of the history and future of streetwear, this is the tale of Bobby's commitment to his creative vision and to building a real community.
