Jack in the Box and The Hundreds Bring West Coast Nostalgia to Life with “Jack Was Here” Drop

TL;DR

Jack in the Box and The Hundreds have collaborated on a limited-edition streetwear collection, 'Jack Was Here!', to celebrate Jack in the Box's 75th anniversary. The collection will feature four drops throughout 2026, with the first drop launching on January 28.

Jack in the Box and LA-born streetwear brand The Hundreds have joined forces to celebrate Jack in the Box’s 75th anniversary with a collaboration that’s all about street culture, community, and the fun that only happens outside of the box. Launching January 28, the Jack in the Box x The Hundreds “Jack Was Here!” collection will be the first of four limited-edition drops throughout 2026, bringing Jack Box face-to-face with The Hundreds’ Adam Bomb to celebrate 75 years of unruliness and two brands known for leaving their mark.

For more than 23 years, The Hundreds’ Adam Bomb has stood as a symbol of belonging, an unmistakable icon woven into streetwear culture and community identity. For 75 years, Jack has played a similar role of his own, showing up in late nights, drive-thru runs, and core memories, instantly recognizable and impossible to ignore. Naturally, Jack couldn’t resist putting his own irreverent spin on a streetwear classic.

The first drop introduces a reworked Adam Bomb graphic, tagged and transformed with Jack’s signature face and stamped with the phrase “Jack Was Here!” Featuring a T-shirt, sweatshirt, and trucker snapback, the “Jack Was Here!” drop seamlessly blends the west coast heritage and passion of both brands, celebrating a shared legacy of fun, rebellion, and making noise where it counts.

“For 75 years, Jack in the Box has been showing up in people’s lives in ways that go far beyond the menu,” said Ryan Ostrom, Chief Customer and Digital Officer at Jack in the Box. “Collaborating with The Hundreds lets us celebrate creativity, community, and the moments that become unforgettable. ‘Jack Was Here’ is about giving fans a way to take Jack with them to the spaces that define who they are, and serve as a reminder of why they love Jack in the first place.”

“Jack in the Box is part of the fabric of growing up in California,” said Ben Hundreds, Co-Founder of The Hundreds. “It’s college memories, inside jokes, and late-night conversations with your people that stick with you forever. Pairing that history with the Adam Bomb felt natural. They’re both icons that people have been tagging onto their lives for decades. ‘Jack Was Here’ is our way of leaving our mark together.”

The partnership taps into a larger cultural moment where food, fashion, and identity are all becoming one, as brands move beyond traditional categories to meet fans where they are.

The Jack in the Box x The Hundreds “Jack Was Here” collection will launch on January 28, with early access beginning at 6:00 p.m. PT for The Hundreds subscribers (also known as Adam Bombs!) and Jack Pack members, followed by a public on-sale at 9:00 p.m. PT. The collection will be available while supplies last, with three additional drops planned throughout the year.
