      @gaseousclay:

      Ordered some Obenauf's heavy duty lp. Minnesota winters can be brutal and the city uses tons of salt to de-ice the roads.

      I did the same up there. The comparison between treated and untreated footwear was crazy.

      My winter beater boots are a pair of Field N Forest moc toes from Mills Fleet Farm. They're basically rebranded Thorogoods and MiUSA. I've had them for about 3-4 yrs and haven't treated them at all. They're starting to look pretty crusty so now is as good a time as any to get them polished up.

              I'm looking to get some good quality hangers that will not leave any shoulder marks on my sweet, sweet IH collection.

              Here are the two options I'm considering: https://www.containerstore.com/s/premium-cedar-hangers/d?productId=10000060&q=premium cedar hanger

              https://www.containerstore.com/s/closet/hangers/view-all-hangers/euro-hanger/123d?productId=10004077

              Any feedback on which you think may be better? I would prefer the cedar ones as they seem more slimline and for the smell. Anyone have something better they use? While we're at it, do you hang your bottoms, and if so what do you hang them on?

              What would Jesus wear?

                I bought a job lot of wooden hangers from JL in their clearance. If you can hang on 'till Christmas day they usually do a great deal or 'special buy' they call it.

                https://www.johnlewis.com/search?search-term=hangers

                The 'profile' or second set of hangers you posted do take up quite a bit more room in the wardrobe. Great for suit, maybe of you want to ensure structure and no marks for lighter shirts too…

                      It looks. Yes. It is chambray fabric. Not denim.

                        The Euro hanger seems like your best, especially if you're washing and hang drying. I've been buying wood hangers from Ikea because they're inexpensive: https://www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/products/30238543/

                          I use wooden hangers I collected quite on accident (laziness) from Mulberry dry cleaners in Minneapolis. They are typical wooden hangers suitable for suits, pants, etc, and shirts do absolutely fine on them–no need to overthink it.

                          Think it, be it.

                            I think I have a wooden hanger from Mulberry's laying around somewhere too  😃

                              He was extremely active in the denim forums world and a nice guy.

                              Actually he convinced me that 21oz denim would soften up with wear and that is
                              when I bought my first pair.

                              I think he was living on the west coast but moved to New York if I recall.

                              When I first joined up here back in 2010 he and a few others were the main contributors to this forum.

                                So I guess people don’t just disappear from the denim scene. Here goes. They fade away. Couldn’t resist.

                                      Thank you gang for the input. I went with the cedar ones for the sake of space and for the good smell factor.

                                        I've been meaning to order a set of these hangers. But they are from Aliexpress so it seems like they probably wouldn't arrive.

                                          I ordered a bunch of these hangers a while ago (https://www.hangerstore.com/wooden-suit-hangers.php).  Nice quality, consistent, they've got a bit of curve to fill out the shoulders better, and made my closet all match…

                                            when you go to the restroom and there is liquid soap, do you wet your hands and then apply the soap or do you apply the soap and then wet your hands?

                                            what, it's random questions, where else would this go

                                            ¯_(ツ)_/¯

                                            oh and do you wash your hands before and after you conduct your restroom bizness or is that just me?  my logic is when out in the world I touch all kinds of stuff that a bunch of people have touched before me and then I touch and the world is just kind of gross when you really think about it. just makes sense for me to wash my hands before I expose minimonday to this dirty dirty world, hahahaha
