A staple in every closet and wardrobe, hangers keep your clothing and accessories neat. Whether it's shirts, suits, pants, skirts, dresses, pashminas, or scarves, there's a suitable set of hangers for your needs. Perhaps you are hanging heavier items, such as jackets, or perhaps you're looking for something of an all-rounder. Maybe you're set on a wooden design, or maybe you prefer the contemporary plastic hanger. Whatever it is you're after, we can help.
To save you the trouble, we've drawn up a carefully curated selection of hangers we just know you'll love. Our favorite, the Home-it velvet hangers, are both affordable and great for keeping clothes in place. To learn more about these little beauties, plus some of the other great options out there, read on.

Our biggest closet pet peeve is clothes that slide off hangers and onto the floor. That's where the Home-it velvet hangers save the day. They're felt-coated to keep clothes from slipping and have notches to hold up dresses, blouses, and other delicates. Bonus: the hook swivels 360 degrees. Genius!
Pros:
- Sturdy
- Flexible
- Affordable
- Sleek design
- Two hooks for accessories
Cons:
- Not suited for heavier items, such as coats
A must-have, the flexible Sharpty hangers can hold up anything from coats to pants. Built-in side hooks take care of ties, scarves, blouses, and belts, while reinforced edges make them durable enough for winter wear.

If it's strength you're after, these are a no-brainer.

When it comes to sturdy and durable hangers, the Jetdio hangers are the gold standard—literally. Made from metal wire, they can hold heavier items and maintain your clothing's shape over time. They're quite thin so that they won't take up precious closet space; plus, they make a delightful sound when they jangle. Scratching is prevented thanks to the silicone-capped hooks, and the bilateral notches stop clothes from falling off.

- Relatively affordable
- Vintage stain
- High durability
- Satin finish
- Non-slip crossbar
- 360-degree swivel
Cons:
- Only ten per pack
The ZOBER wooden hangers are functional and beautiful. A non-slip pants bar holds slacks steady while the broad hanger shoulders cradle suits and support up to 20 pounds. Toss in a 360-degree swivel hook at the top, and these are a steal!
