Say Goodbye to the Shoulder Bump With Well Hung Hangers

It’s a feeling every guy is used to: that morning when you forget to set your alarm and find yourself rushing around your house or apartment trying to make it to a meeting on time. You scramble through a shower that is either too hot or too cold, chew through a burnt piece of toast and brush your teeth while pulling on your pants and socks. Then, by the time you’re in the car or the subway, you notice the lump on the shoulder of your shirt that just won’t go away—the telltale sign of a bad clothes hanger.

A new wooden hanger company has taken it upon themselves to help men avoid this type of situation. Well Hung Hangers makes durable, form-fitting hangers from imported wood, which are assembled in the United States. The domestic assembly is a point of pride for the brand and it’s founders and is just as important as the material the hangars are made from.

The hangers themselves feature inlaid rubber shoulder guards and a flocked pant bar, which is precisely the type of innovation that removes unwanted and uneven creases in trousers; while the 22 inch width and ½ inch thickness eliminate the shoulder bumps that can make the most fashionable and put together guy look disheveled and disorganized.

Well Hung Hangers features a team of fashion industry veterans that have worked with brands such as Neiman Marcus, Brooks Brothers and Macy’s in Manhattan. The hangers are made to accommodate a variety of men’s sizes and the company will work with custom tailors as well in order to make sure the most unique shirt or suit will never be ruined.

It’s about time to get rid of those pinched and bent white metal hangers and treat your clothes the way they should be treated. After all, you probably spent a pretty penny on that suit, why treat it like a second rate citizen? Check out Well Hung Hangers and the next time you have to rush to a meeting, you’ll have one less thing to worry about.

the reebok x market club c 85 drops in two bold new editions

Although it’s not the first time that Reebok and MARKET have worked together on a collaboration, it’s undoubtedly some of the boldest and most statement pieces the duo has released. Tapping into earthy tones and aquatic movements, this new collaborative collection embodies the dynamism you would expect from either brand. As to the inspiration of the collection, Mike Cherman, founder of MARKET, explained, “The inspiration for this collection was Land & Sea. Then we asked ourselves, ‘What if a strap sandal and a sneaker had a baby?’ You get this lightweight, open-air hybrid, made for hot days, wet feet, and spontaneous detours.” Based on this inspiration, the collection comes with two new bold designs and a series of apparel that meets the moment.

How you dress says a lot about who you are. Your outward appearance is a reflection of your inner self-image. So if you feel as though you are chaotic and messy, you will look unkept and sloppy in your day-to-day life. We all look to celebrities to mold our looks, but there is a level of imitations that lessen your ability to be you. Place of Elms is looking to change that, with some legendary stylists in their space and giving some fans an insight into how to dress like themselves, while still looking like a celebrity.

“We believe reverence is the essence of luxury, and truth is the ultimate aesthetic,” says the founder and designer behind Place of Ëlms, Lennie Moreno. “Recognition must be given to the stylists, as they are shaping how entire generations dress. Honoring them is honoring the invisible labor behind the visible show.”
