Jacket Hangers, a new approach

[armscye]

I've seen a variety of leather jacket hanger designs on the board, including some using foam pipe insulation. Since I tend to wash and then air dry most of my leather jackets for shaping and patina purposes, I needed something a little more supportive. Mine uses those kid's "pool noodles", which are waterproof, rot free, and come in ribbed formats that allow a little more air circulation. I bevel the ends for ease of insertion.

Simply the best (for my jackets) ...

P.S.: For the wood is impregnated and lacquered it is water proof!

Great idea. I take it the center of the noodles are hollow?

I use the same type hanger as Johhanes for my pea coats, but the are expensive when I have so many of them to put on hangers. The leather jackets get thrown on the closet floor. Don't need any type of hanger down there.

LMAO the images that conjures up

I do the same. I also kick them sometimes.

My A-1 spends most of the time roughly folded over on a car seat or an armchair.

I also kick them sometimes.

Fred Astaire would take his brand new Savile Row tailored jackets and throw them against a wall repeatedly to brake them in.

I don't put my A-2 on a hanger, either.

Not against tossing them around, but they all have nice, big, wooden hangers. The floor is fine for the pets :eeek:

I've never used hangers for leather. I don't really get why you would... unless it saves space maybe.

Hmm. I've got ~14 jackets in the closet. WIthout hangers, I don't see a very wife-friendly way to not use hangers and still have jackets ready and uncrumpled...piling them up or boxing them isn't too practical.
