What is a zero waste garment?

Zero waste is growing in popularity, but what is it?  and how does Hovden Wear fit into this movement?

A zero waste garment is a piece of clothing that is produced without creating, and ultimately throwing away, extra material.  It is a difficult task, and one that many designers and companies don´t care to take on.  For Hovden Wear, it comes completely naturally. 

The busserull shirt, also known as the arbetsjorta, is about as zero waste as can be.  The pattern is from the 1800s, a time when waste was unheard of for many farming and working class people.  As my grandmother would say, there was nothing extra, so you had to use every piece of what you had.

So what did they do? They created this pattern using squares. Every inch of the fabric could be mapped out and cut in straight lines, completely eliminating funny shaped off cuts. Every inch of fabric could be incorporated into a shirt in some way.  At the time it was the practical thing to do. Now, having a zero waste product is considered a huge step towards sustainability. 

For Hovden Wear, we just continue to appreciate the thoughtfulness and creativity that went into traditional, hard working clothing.

  • RECOVER YOUR LOST BITCOIN // WITH THE HELP OF GEO COORDINATES RECOVERY HACKER
    
    I’m Thermos Lucas. I’m here to tell my testimony about how. GEO COORDINATES RECOVERY HACKER enabled me to recover my stolen BTC. A few months ago I lost $673,000 worth of BTC to a fake investment company. I don’t know how they got my email but I received an email from Investment Bank with a good proposal on how I could make millions out of my investment with them. I was convinced when they showed me profits from other clients that had invested in their platform, I began investing with them. When it was time to withdraw my profits, their website was shut down and I tried contacting them but they wanted me to pay a huge amount of fee to be able to withdraw my funds which I did until they cut me off and stopped all communication with me. I was shocked and devastated, I realized there was nothing I could do to recover my funds, I had gone to the authorities but they couldn’t assist me.

  • “In the crypto world, this is great news I want to share. Last year, I fell victim to a scam disguised as a safe investment option. I have invested in crypto trading platforms for about 10yrs thinking I was ensuring myself a retirement income, only to find that all my assets were either frozen, I believed my assets were secure — until I discovered that my BTC funds had been frozen and withdrawals were impossible. It was a devastating moment when I realized I had been scammed, and I thought my Bitcoin was gone forever, Everything changed when a close friend recommended the Capital Crypto Recover Service. Their professionalism, expertise, and dedication enabled me to recover my lost Bitcoin funds back — more than €560.000 DEM to my BTC wallet.
