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.

  • I’ve been saving in my crypto wallet for years now until my computer was hacked two weeks ago and I lost all my data and crypto assets, I was extremely devastated and lost all hope of ever getting them recovered. I went to the authorities but there was nothing anyone could do to help me recover my crypto assets until I came across a website about Morphohack cybersecurity company, a top-notch security company that has been working effectively and successfully in recovering crypto and data for years, I contacted them about my account, and Morphohack in a space of about 72 hours, was able to recover my crypto assets and my data, and even securing my crypto wallet and data from hackers. I’m truly grateful for their service and I can assure you their success rate is 100%.

  • How can you recover your stolen crypto/btc assets?

    Well, I thought it was impossible until I was able to recover my stolen crypto assets.
    I fell victim to a crypto scam that saw me lose all my assets within a space of five days, I was catfished by a person who pretended to be a crypto trader and investor, after depositing close to a million dollars into this fake crypto exchange, it was impossible to withdraw my assets and all communication with this so-called trader was compromised. I felt like I was going to die until I saw an opportunity to recover my crypto assets with the services of Morphohack Cybersecurity, a crypto and data recovery company. I contacted them immediately, provided all my information, and in a few hours, morphohack was able to detect and trace my crypto assets, and recovered everything in less than 72 hours. I was in awe of how quick and easy it was, I can personally assure you all that Morphohack Cybersecurity is a team of relentless, reliable, and trustworthy crypto and data recovery experts. Your experience with them won’t differ. Contact them immediately
