Hanging Suits When Going to the Gym

I am wondering what hangup bags, pant hangers if any are you using to hang up your suit when changing at the Gym. I have recently took up Muay Thai and No-Gi Jiu Jitsu a couple of days a week.

I have looked into getting a garmet bag but don't want to start having creases in my pants due to them being folded in a bag for a couple of hours until I get home.

How do you figure that your trousers will get creases in them? How do you hang your suits at home?

I hang them upside down with the clips on the inside of the bottom of the pants. I use the wide shoulder hangers for my jackets. Shirts aren't to worry about.

Am I going over board and treating my suits like I treated my Marine Corps uniforms?

When I fist switched over from SW&D to CM, I also treated some of my tailored clothing like it was made of cobwebs -- so I understand where you're coming from. Eventually, I realized that nothing untoward happens as long as you're cognizant.

Ok Great. Thanks for your help.

Yup will do. I am new to suits everyday and only have a few. Will be incorporating more and expanding my wardrobe.

Right now I have two suits ><

Medium Charcoal Pinstripe

Navy Pinstripe

I just don't know what to get next. I need to get solids I know but don't know where to go for color. Maybe brown, another charcoal but solid, sharkskin, etc...

Edited to add: I only wear suits 4 days a week, Fridays are dress slacks and dress shirt no tie but coat is prefered. I am in need of a sports coat or blazer really bad. i have been wearing a nice wool jacket but it is about to heat up.
