HANGER TYPES AND TIPS YOU NEED TO KNOW TO REST YOUR SUIT

When it comes to mens suit,  tweed jacket, and dress shirts, the reality is that they spend more time hanging in the wardrobe than on the body. While you simply hang them at your closet, do you ever stop to wonder whether their resting place is decent for them?

If not, you should, especially when using wire hangers to hang your attire. These types of hangers re-shape padded tweed jacket shoulder, result in wrinkling, and can ultimately ruin the look and feel of men’s clothing, just by hanging in the cupboard.

When devoting time and money choosing proper fitting suits, you can’t afford to let them decease in the closet. With the right kind of hanger, you can ensure men’s clothing thrives, no matter how frequently they are taken out of the wardrobe.

Types of Hanger:

The best kind of hanger to use for men’s suits, a tweed jacket or men’s trousers is a wooden hanger. However, not every wooden hanger is alike. They are gender-specific, which means, some are made specifically to lodge men’s clothing, while others are made for women’s clothing. 

• Suit Hangers- A proper suit hanger can hang both a jacket and trouser as a set. It will have plenty of backing to protect the drape and tailoring of the suits, and should be fully contoured to allow for support of the shoulders.

• Jacket Hangers- Men’s tweed jacket hangers are almost similar to suit hangers; they share almost all the same features, except that they do not have a trouser bar.

• Trouser Hangers- These hangers are specifically meant for trousers that do not go with or match specific mens suits. These hangers will not contain a locking bar as they can increase wrinkles at the thigh and will ruin the fabric of the trousers over time.

• Felted Trouser Bar- Felted or flocked trouser bars not only make room for larger tweed jacket hangers and hangers for men’s suits, but also protect your trousers from destruction while they are hanging in the wardrobe. This type of hanger prevents from creasing  and also holds the trousers, keeping them from slipping off the hanger and falling down.

• Shirt Hangers- Shirt hangers should extend to the length of the shoulder, and they should be thick enough to provide backing for the shirt, but should not consume much of closet space.
