What’s your best hanger for leather jackets?

Hi, Is the danger to the jacket due to the angle of the hanger arm being too horizontal, as opposed to hanger arms with a steeper angle will create lesser risk of creasing? Thank you.
No, it has to do with the total width of the hanger, not the slope. At least in my case they were too narrow for the total shoulder width and they made some ugly bumps at the shoulders.

Whatever hanger you decide to use it’s also important to make sure the jacket isn’t zipped when hanging it up in between wearing.
Otherwise creasing can develop down the front as can be seen in the photos of this Aero Leather jacket which was being sold on eBay:
