New Clothing Hanger With “Anti-Stretch Technology” – And It’s Made From Agricultural Waste!

Who would have thought to redesign a clothing hanger? Well, we did! Hello pandas! I’m Timothy Lee, and a few years ago, my good friend Michael Graham and I set off to redesign a common household item as an internal test project. As it turned out, we loved it so much, we just had to see it through! The best part? We’ve integrated state-of-the-art “anti-stretch technology” (yep, we said it) and we made it using agricultural waste (say whaaa?)!

So, what makes the Mozu Hanger so unique? Well, let’s first address the obvious – its shape. Aside from meticulously designed shoulders that prevent what we like to call “pokies,” we’ve integrated a unique notch that allows you to hang and remove clothes with ease, WITHOUT unbuttoning your top button or over-stretching your collar (that’s the anti-stretch technology, btw). “Why is that important?” you might ask…so, everyone does stuff a bit differently. Some people (like myself) are particular about how they hang their shirts…they’re organized by type of shirt (dress, polo, tee, etc.), the button-up ones are fully buttoned to prevent flaccid collars (yes, I used the word “flaccid”), and all the hangers have to match. OCD? Perhaps. Some people even like to wash their clothes buttoned up so they don’t get snagged or misshapen. There are also those that put the hanger in from the bottom to avoid unbuttoning their shirt (weirdos). Some people don’t like messing with their clothes while they’re hanging in the closet because it’s awkward and their closet is overstuffed and their wife takes up More Than Her Allotted Space YET KEEPS BUYING MORE CLOTHES (no anger here, just facts and progressively excessive use of capital letters). Also, some people hang their hoodies, which have ridiculously small necks (not sure why, I mean they hurt my head just putting them on). And then there are those that still wear turtlenecks (no comment, I don’t judge).

Oh, and if you’re a parent, you know that kid’s clothes start off REALLY small, and then get bigger over time (if you haven’t realized this, maybe you should help out with the laundry from time to time). So that means you start off with baby hangers, then kids hangers, and then adult hangers – that’s a lot of hangers!!! And that’s why I despise laundry day…

Still here? Great…so now that we’ve established the reason for the notch, I’ll explain the next best part. We’ve made the Mozu Hanger in two different materials – bamboo and wheat straw, which is a bioplastic made using 40% renewable agricultural bi-products (the stalks of wheat). Now isn’t that cool? Eco-consciousness is one of our guiding principles, so sustainable materials is at the forefront of our design process, and we’re proud of that. Sorry, no jokes here…our environment is a serious matter!

Can you think of any other useful applications or odd clothes hanging habits that the Mozu Hanger would help solve? Comment below!
