The name of the HåkaBaka brand is derived from the village on Vormsi Island, where we live and grew up. The story of HåkaBaka's activities begins when, as a child, we used to visit our grandmother on Vormsi Island a lot. My sister and I spent the whole summer there. In addition to games and other activities, we also had time to sit next to our grandmother and watch her knit wool socks. Making a pair of socks in a day was not a problem for her. The work was fast, precise and neat, and once again a pair of socks were ready to give as a gift or use for ourselves. This has been of great value in developing my personal interest in handicrafts. It didn't take long before I crocheted my first scarf.

As I got older, I became interested in graphic design. The desire to wear art gave rise to the idea that a print I designed on a t-shirt would be authentic, which in turn grew into me starting to design and sew original HåkaBaka t-shirts and sweatshirts. Over time, kimonos and jackets have also been added to them.

Since producing new clothes from new materials is expensive and not exactly environmentally friendly, I decided to go against the grain and use existing resources.

HåkaBaka is a brand that gives new life to production waste and scrap materials, creating unique and high-quality clothing from them. We like simplicity and authenticity, but with our own niche and twist.
