@tody I think just nice wood, strong, and maybe branded with Iron Heart (i mean heat branded like a cow, not just branded like a brand)

Would cedar be a good choice? Repels moths, but I don’t know if it might discolour clothes(?) More versatile if the metal hook swivels rather than being fixed imo.

@cityofdelusion Make it out of the existing sweats fabric, I'd happily buy one.

I would love some hangers were the end is wide.
even the Y2 hangers that look great are not really suitable for heavy leather jackets.
they are too thin and short , this causes creases y

I have a few plastic ones that work perfectly, they are long and wide enough . no creases but they are plastic, and that’s of course not so cool.
see the difference:

@Daniel-San Those wide hangers are awesome for anything leather or stretches easily. I have also see people use pool noodles to slide over the ends of hangers to prevent that from occurring.

[Daniel San]

@goosehd
so hard to find those wide ones ‍
and almost always plastic.
the only wooden one I have is around 60 years old , maybe even older .

[goosehd]

@Mister_Brue Those are very nice!!! Great find

[Daniel San]

@Mister_Brue
they look awesome
are they only available in Japan?

[goosehd]

@Mister_Brue ...and the price tag to go with it...re: the Mt. Fuji hangers

1200 pounds ????
holy sh….

@Daniel-San I have a feeling that most of us would receive a beating with that hanger whilst the significant other is on the phone calling a divorce attorney.

[tody]

@goosehd how would she be able to afford one after the hanger purchase?

[Daniel San]

@goosehd
I guess too
But if you have bespoke suits for 10000 bucks it might be ok to pay 1200 for a awesome hanger .

[Tago Mago]

@Daniel-San if the bespoke suit cost $10k I’d be pissed if they charged me for the hangers

I was once at a photography workshop and the teacher was stressing the importance of a tri-pod,when someone asked him how much should you spend on a tri-pod? And he said as much as you can without getting a divorce.

@Jett129 I’ve followed that same advice, twice; never regretted it!

@NorvilleRogers
I made two jeans hangers out of Oak a few years ago , do a tidy job.

To hang shirts/jackets I’ve got some black wooden ones from Dunelm.

[JunkPants]

@Jcaz6996 Nice!

[NorvilleRogers]

Beautiful @Jcaz6996 … they look sturdy!

I use these pattern hooks that I got locally from Imogene + Willie here in Nashville. I've tried to source different ones or even make my own, but for $3 a piece they are hard to beat.
