Hangers for Winter Coats and Jackets


Jacket hangers, which are broad enough in the shoulders to support the weight of a heavier winter coat or sport jacket but don’t have a crossbar to hold pants, can be hard to find.

The Mawa suit hangers are a different kind of hanger than the beautifully contoured ones from the Hanger Project. They’re made in Germany with a 10-year warranty, are extremely sturdy, modern, and have a rubber coating that grips fabric, keeping it from sliding down and stretching out the neck area. And they’re only $7.50 each! The neck area and shoulders are a little on the thin side, and could cause a little creasing over time, but I don’t think it will be an issue since the grippy surface of the hanger seemed to support things really well and evenly across the entire hanger surface. They’re also really sleek and modern, and so German, and we like them just for that reason, too. (If you have a jacket size above 44, you’ll want the 18-inch wide version.)Note that these hangers cost about the same for the regular clothing kind as the suit kind, and the rubber became a hindrance dealing with more delicate, lighter clothing, which snagged on it during testing.

They’re cheap at $7.50, which is odd because usually suit hangers cost 5-10x the cost of their regular counterparts. They’re metal, made in Germany, are a little on the thin side, but that’s ok because it will keep the bulk down when you’re talking about two dozen coats in a closet for an entire family. The thing that makes them better than higher-end and lower-end hangers, which have less and more support, proportional to price, is that these hangers have a rubber coating which is entirely able to support a coat without you having to zip or button it up, since the rubber grips the inside of the garment. This kind of grippy feel would be annoying on delicate or every day materials where it would snag. But on winter coats and even jackets and blazers, it’s wonderful and distributes the load over the entire surface of the hanger, so that there’s less worry about creases from the narrow edges of the hanger’s top/neck section. (They’re available without crossbars but I recommend getting them with, since they cost only $1.50 less and the ones with cross bars are more versatile. They’re also available in larger sizes .)But you can go even cheaper: If you’ve got a closet full of winter coats that you don’t worry too much about, or that are very light (down filled), then regu l ar wooden hangers, like The Container Store’s set we recommend , will do just fine.If you want to go really high class, you could get The Hanger Project’s jacket hanger , which has all the wonderful qualities of their suit hangers without the crossbar. But since this hanger is $23, you might as well just buy the suit hangers with crossbars for $2 more. I’d personally get the Mawas, but they are really nowhere near as classy/nice/lovely as the Hanger Project’s hangers.

Now I just need to figure out if I should go full shoulder (the bulged type) or standard.

Kirby Allison was recommended to me elsewhere. I know I'm contradicting myself, but perhaps gold standard was a hair too rich for my blood. Maybe silver standard will do.

There's no such thing as a gold standard hanger. That's just some clever marketing junk that Kirby came up with during the #menswear era to sell driftwood to iGents at $30 a pop. I'm sure his does the job well but I am reminded of how massive the margins must be on those things every time he posts one of his "Here is my $95,000 wardrobe and my $47,000 bespoke shoes" flex videos. I mean, props to him for finding an audience that will pay that sum, I guess.

All you need is a hanger that is roughly the shape of the shoulders of your jacket. Typically that means they're wider than regular hangers and with big fat ends to fill out the jacket's shoulders, which are a 3D structure. If you hang a jacket on a regular flat hanger, the jacket shoulders will deform from gravity. Material is largely irrelevant.

My favorite is actually the plastic kind that comes with SuitSupply jackets. Just a big robust shape that fills up the jacket's shoulders, and weighs barely anything.

This might solve your issue for cheap:

Otherwise, you can find wooden ones all over internet for about $5 each. All of mine were some Amazon retailer brand called Clutter Mate, which is unfortunately discontinued. My tailor uses an off-brand kind with a nice velvet-y trouser bar that is very grippy without wrinkling your pants.
