This Is Not a T-Shirt / Bobby Hundreds Available at www.draw-down.com A Brand, A Culture, A Community—A Life in Streetwear 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. In This Is Not a T-Shirt, 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. #Streetwear #BobbyHundreds #SouthernCalifornia #TheHundreds https://www.instagram.com/p/B8ba_hhH-QJ/?igshid=1plb3qtecwu1h
Not just a T-Shirt, Not just a Brand: Lessons from Bobby Hundreds on Streetwear and Culture👕📚

One of the first interviews I watched that introduced me to streetwear was with Bobby Kim aka Bobby Hundreds— the cofounder of the streetwear brand The Hundreds. So when I was walking around Barnes and Nobles and saw his book I immediately picked it up. In his books he delves into how streetwear is not without culture and community. In fact, the two vital forces are what drive streetwear. Not only does Bobby offer his funny, authentic, and insightful journey from being an artistic kid with immigrant parents growing up in California. He also shows how his journey is meant to inspire a community that looks after one another.
One of the biggest lessons I took, that has changed my creative process since, is that you have to take your history, memories, and community wherever you go. From the little moments you have during childhood to the trials and tribulations we go through as young adults. It is what makes streetwear a cultural mixing pot expressed through clothes and art. I also have immigrant parents who supported my artistic endeavors. Which makes me work even harder for a career in Art and Fashion PR. So thank you Bobby Hundreds for this book and let’s see how my creativity evolves with it. 🪐🌺

Fear of judgment means you’re trying to protect your ego. On the flipside, seeking praise and validation is about selfdom. But, this was never about your pride, this was about your work – two separate things! This sounds crazy but try to divorce your personal sense of worth from the work that you put out into the world. Let them (the rotating cast of haters, trolls, and gatekeepers) attack your character, your taste and skills. If you truly believe in your work, then offer it regardless of what they say. The only person who can stop you is you.
