Jacket Hangers

[Peter Bowden]

Just looking at the advice about hanging jackets on Aero's site.Presumably once a jacket has creased it will stay creased.I have now laid mine on the floor.

Aero have had the good sense to now start selling their hangers. In lieu of having the right shape of one and out of fear of crippling my wardrobe, I've always kept my jackets either slung over the chair or hidden behind the trouser press. I'll probably invest in a few to keep my lighter ones vertical in future.

Need too much space on the floor to laid all jackets .

Hmm, seems my Highwayman has the dreaded crease, never realized it was caused by the hanger, oh well c'est la vie.

I don't understand the reasoning behind not using wide-shouldered hangers as opposed to a thin hanger for a leather jacket.

Our shoulders are wide, not thin like the Aero hangers or a wire hanger. It seems to me that you'd want to hang a jacket (especially a heavier one) on a hanger that mimics a human shoulder. Wouldn't using a thin hanger cause the jacket to conform to an unnatural shape over time?

I try to use broad shouldered hangers on all my jackets and have yet to see any ill effects.

 

[Dav]

Same as me, only one seems to have it. I've just pulled them all out to check, lol.

I purchase broad shouldered hangers then wrap two layers of thick piping insulation around the end to simulate a large shoulder.

Oh no, I've been storing my jackets zipped up on bad hangars. Anyone have a picture of the dreaded crease? Also, a cheaper USA source for hangars?

Buy some pool noodles and cut them to fit the hanger. Works like a charm.

I've used broad shouldered hangers for years with no problems. I'm not going to change now.

Pool noodle hangers. Pipe insulation also works

There must be at least two or three threads on this already. I've never used hangers, just drape them across a chair seat or put them in a large plastic box.

hmm, this is interesting I actually got wide shouldered hanger in order to hang my jackets - https://www.hangerproject.com/mens-jacket-hanger.html

I guess its better to just lay them flat somewhere in a box

Can you imagine a FL Outerwear pool party? Pool filled with Pecard’s and foam hanger noodles...in the rain of course.

I dislike straight shouldered jacket, so suit hanger works fine on my sloped shouldered jackets lol

I imagine people sitting on the pool side loungers in the sun with their jacket on and rubbing pecard on themselves and to each other back... with occasional walk to the outdoor shower to cool down their jacket and finger shaping their collar and lapel while the jacket is damp while chatting with each other.... AVOID.

I've put jackets in large boxes for the past three decades without any issues. Only hanging them up in a closet resulted in creasing. The problem was not the hanger it was that the jacket was packed in too tightly. My bad... I like throwing my jackets on the bottom of the closet floor. They tend to lie flat and don't come to any harm.

I have that exact hanger Ken gave me in Scotland awhile back but don't think I would use it for anything other than a lighter weight jacket.
