I just put in an order at Hanger Project with Kirby for some hangers. I was hoping they'd have some that would work for a woman's jacket or coat, but what they have is too wide and too thick. At the moment, Kirby is working on some prototypes, but he doesn't know if there's enough demand for smaller, high-end hangers for women, and isn't sure what features women would want.
However, he told me that if I could get people to order 100 women's hangers and nail down the specifics, he'd be willing to make them for us.
At the moment, the men's hangers come in 17", 18.5", and 20" widths. The 17" one might be okay for some women in terms of width, but it's too flared for most women's shoulders. So, perhaps modified 17" and a 14.5" models would do the trick.
Would any of your girlfriends or wives be interested? If so, maybe we can get a bulk order started. We just need to get a consensus on preferred widths, features (trouser bar? skirt clamp?), and colors (dark cherry like the men's, or lighter?). If the men's versions are any indication, a women's hanger would go for about $22. We need to order 100 hangers; I'm down for 10.
