One of the best ways to increase the life of your clothes is by wearing them in ‘rotation’. You know, one day this, the other day that and the following day this again.
Garments spend more time hung up on a hanger than that on a body.
Clothes deserve this sort of care and thus you should go for the wooden hangers which do not bend like those metal ones. The wooden hangers offer a better arrangement to the clothes due to which your blazers and shirts maintain those tailored lines.

Many might not have the luxury of wearing the same set of clothes for 365 days. There might be times when you need to change your whole wardrobe, probably because of the weather.
So, to increase the life of your clothes so that they don’t catch dust or grow old, get a nice garment bag, or a vacuum bag if you’re short of space and stuff your clothes in that till the time comes to get them back on board. Till then, it’s your responsibility to keep them safe and clean so that when you need them back, they’re all ready and good to go.

Shoe Rees give your shoes the support and a structure so that when you’re not wearing them, they maintain their shape and do not collapse.
The wood of the shoe tree not only gives them a support but gives them that forestry smell to keep them fresh and also absorbs moisture from the sole and the leather.
