Wetsuit Hanger????

[mark01]

I have four suits hanging on the large, square, plastic hangers I got from the LDS. My lighter weight suits are showing some hangar marks at the shoulders, not terrible, but they're there. Is this a big deal?? Should I invest is some of those 3 or 4.5 inch wide hangars I see advertised at various on line shops.?? If so, is there some sort of guide to determine which width to use with which weight suit??

TIA

I went to my local Home Depot and purchased some pipe wrap, gray one, and placed it over the existing hanger. $2.00 for about 4'. it seems to work and saved me a lot of money. Best of luck!

Yea, that pipe insulation does a nice job.

The big hangers you mention are intended for dry suits and should not be needed for wetsuits.

I hang mine on plain old plastic hangers. Haven't had a problem.
