I know this might seem a little silly, but I am getting rid of all the hackjob hangers in my closet. I'm sick of the dimpled, mishapen shirts etc. Can anyone recommend a quality, well constructed (preferably wooden & preferably made in US) hanger for jackets, dress shirts, jeans, slacks etc that will last?

Thanks ahead.

While interesting, not exactly what I'm looking for. Looking for reasonable prices..

Is there anywhere besides the Hanger Project that sells hangers in small sizes (e.g. <16")?

Your desire to organize your closet using "proper" hangers isn't silly. Apart from better organizing your closet, hangers that are contoured and built up in the area of the neck and shoulders support and enhance the overall drape of your garments.

As a dry cleaner, I cannot, for the life of me, understand how a dry cleaner can claim to "take care of your wardrobe" and then return your suit jacket on some flimsy wire hanger covered with some crappy piece of cardboard.

For more on the subject of hangers....

I hear Tom Ford makes a nice one, but it'll cost you about $3-5K. Nicely wrapped in a cloth bag too which looks a lot like a suit.

I've never shopped with the HangerProject, but I do have a contoured hanger from WoodLore

http://bit.ly/x9lAAE

It's heavy duty cedar with a stout neck that maintains the shape of my suit collar. I'm very happy with it and will be buying more.
