Tips & Warnings
Use a wooden hanger or a hanger made specifically for hanging pants. Wire hangers will leave a line on your pants, which is difficult to iron out.
Never hang pants when they are damp. Not only do you run the risk of mildew, you will likely have a definite line in your pants where they lay over the hanger.
