    These type of hangers will definately NOT work with a tank, not even a 13 oz. but will work with a lighter kilt such as an SWK. I found some hangers at Target that hold them fast and my heavy kilts have never fallen from them. They do not have the wooden bar to clasp but have two sliding catches like clothespins on a strong wire and they are more than adequate for any heavy kilt plus I can put my jackets over the entire works so I save room in the closet.

    My latest "invention" (really, just tried it yesterday) for heaviest weight kilts is to use one of those wide extending spring loaded skirt hangers (|-------------| with springs for compression) to hold a kilt flat and then hang it from a hanger by the two hanging-straps. Seems to do a good job (this moment) supporting a good 2 kg of regimental wool. Since the kilt is in "compression" it seems, it can be packed better into a tight closet---- why is it that no matter how large a closet one has (or how many) they always end up over stuffed? This concept (if it proves the test) could be extended to a space saving (but closet pole pending) variation as per trousers.
