On June 17, The Hundreds and Toei Animation Inc. are joining forces to celebrate the iconic international anime series ONE PIECE – one of the greatest stories ever told! The Hundreds X One Piece Collection is a monumental collaboration between the Los Angeles-based streetwear brand and the legendary Japanese anime series that brings ONE PIECE’s beloved characters to life in a whole new way.
For over two decades and counting, ONE PIECE has been entertaining anime fans of every age around the world. Produced by Toei Animation and based on the top-selling manga title of all time by Eiichiro Oda, the ONE PIECE anime series spans more than 975 episodes to date since it first debuted on Japanese TV in October 1999. This iconic series features pirate Monkey D. Luffy and his Straw Hat crew on their epic quest to find “One Piece,” the legendary treasure of the Pirate King Gol D. Roger. The global pop culture status of One Piece is the crowning achievement for an anime franchise that now encompasses theatrical films, home videos, video games, and an ever-expanding catalog of licensed merchandise that includes accessories, toys, novelties, furniture, housewares and, of course, apparel.
The Hundreds and Toei Animation are thrilled to partner together for the very first time. The Hundreds X One Piece Collection will feature Monkey D. Luffy, Roronoa Zoro, Nami, TonyTony Chopper, and the rest of the crew across a line of Graphic T-shirts, Long Sleeves, Crewnecks, Pullover Hoodies, Sweatpants, and Hats as well as an array of collectible accessories including Stickers, Coffee Mug, Pin Set, Keychain, and Post-It Notes.
The Hundreds X One Piece Collection arrives on Thursday, June 17, and will be available on The Hundreds App and Online Shop, as well as The Hundreds flagship store at 501 N Fairfax in Los Angeles and in select authorized retailers in the United States, and Canada.
