How to Hang Pants So They Don't Get Hanger Marks
Having to iron your pants every time you remove them from the closet can be a major time monopolizer, especially when you are pressed for time. Instead of ironing out the hanger marks, prevent them in the first place by using the right hangers. Two different types of hangers are used for pants. Both, when used properly, let you hang pants so they don't get hanger marks, regardless of the pants material. Does this Spark an idea?

Clamp Hangers
-
1
Choose a clamp hanger that has fabric-lined clamps, which are less likely to cause hanger marks on your pants cuffs.
-
2
Open the mouth of the clamp so you have a space to put the pants in. Lay the hanger down on a flat surface.

-
3
Press the pants so they are ready to wear once removed from the hanger. Turn them upside down so the cuffs are at the top.
-
4
Lay the cuffs into the opening of the clamp hanger. Smooth them down so the crease won't be marred by the hanger. Clamp the hanger down to secure them.
-
5
Hang the pants in a roomy closet. Try not to over-stuff your closet, as that will cause your clothes to wrinkle even more.
Bar Hangers
-
6
Chose a bar hanger with a thick bar across the bottom. Avoid wire hangers for pants; the thin bar will likely cause hanger marks on pants.
-
7
Fold a tea or face towel in half and slip it over the bar so that it hangs slightly on each side. It should create a padded surface for the pants.
-
8
Lay the pants out flat and then thread them over the bar so the top and bottom half hang equally on either side of the bar.
-
9
Adjust the tea towel so it spans the entire area where the pants are touching the bar. The padding from the tea towel will protect your pants from getting hanger marks.
