The Best Hangers for Your Suits

A well-made suit will last you a lifetime—if you care for it properly. And no amount of careful cleaning will make up for years of hanging a sharply tailored jacket and trousers on a hanger that’s not built to support them. This is why it’s just as important to choose the right hanger for a suit as it is to choose the right shirt and other accessories to wear with it.

Suit hangers with wide shoulders are a simple and effective way to help your jackets maintain their shape when you’re not wearing them.

And beyond its practicality, these hangers, typically found cut from wood, are a stylish way to both organize your closet and make it look more like your favorite menswear store than a catchall for the things you don’t want on display.
