      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.

      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…

              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?

              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.

                    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.

                              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

                                  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

                                    Wetting hands first with liquid soap is what I do. Depending on the bathroom I use I sometimes wash my hands before and after.

                                    I recently attended a parents evening at my smallest ones day care where they are very into hand hygiene as a way of preventing the spread of viruses. Apparently having the soap on your hands for at least 20 seconds before rinsing is key. Because science. They are also big on washing hands both on arrival and depature.

                                      I definitely get my hands wet before getting the soap, then make sure to lather it up real good, not just wash it away.  As for washing before using the bathroom, it's not necessary for me, but the mechanics are different.  I would certainly wash if before handling my (usually) clean body with hands that have been out in the dirty world.

                                        because science, hahahahaha

                                        was actually thinking if putting liquid soap on dry hands is a thing and more effective than why not apply dry bar of soap on your hands before use?  should be the same science, huh, okay maybe not

                                        and i just had the thought of all the nasty hands that touch the lever for the soap to come down before i press it and shuddered a little

                                        now i'm going to wash my hands

                                          I wash my hands after doing my business. I actually put the soap in my left hand dry, wet the right hand and then lather together for 20 seconds or so.

                                            Good call, also helps with the moth factor.
