- dan-robertson 3y agoI think you can buy better hangers fwiw. In particular, more accurately sized for the jacket and with more shape around the collar. Though obviously ‘better’ is relative – if you’re hanging shirts or trousers you don’t need nearly as much shape.
- fgdelcueto 3y agoWhen my son was about 5 months old, he was crawling in the bathroom floor while I was getting dressed in the adjacent walk-in closet. He was playing with the closet door and closed it. I didn't think much of it, but then I noticed that he had also opened a drawer which prevented me from opening the door from the closet (terrible apartment design!). I was stuck in the closet alone, without my phone, unable to get out. I panicked a little bit since it was early in the day and my spouse wouldn't return in about 10 hours. Long story short, I McGyver'ed my way out thanks to a wire hanger that I found in the closet: I straightened it and used it to push the drawer back in through the tiny slit that was left through the door and the frame. I used to hate wire hangers too, now I make sure I always have a few in every closet, just in case, you never know :)
- WhrRTheBaboons 3y agoThat's a hilarious story. Thanks for posting!
- mtillman 3y agoCorrect, I’m a little shocked people actually buy non-wood hangers. Metal is just trash the dry cleaner gives you. Plastic is what people somehow end up with in college.
