It's long been mass-produced and consumed, but the generic coat hanger could use a redesign for better effectiveness and flexibility. The Cool Enough Studio Hanger demonstrates a slight alteration to the familiar triangular contraption that significantly increases its versatility.
In the place where the collar of a work shirt or blouse usually opens up, the metal wires have been removed. The hook of the clothes hanger was then redirected to connect to the horizontal rod along the bottom. The way that it's ended up provides a pair of hook-like features that make it possible to hang up items like shoes as well. The big gaps in the Cool Enough Studio Hanger also make it easier to attach tank tops in such a way that prevents them from slipping off.
