    Stilwater's long hangers are 16in (40.6cm). Plenty long enough for a kilt.

    Oops: all 3 of us were right, but the long ones aren't listed today!

    I believe the 16" were listed "Deluxe kilt hangers" when I got them. Apologies for any confusion.

    SWK Hangers

    I just got their 6 pack of kilt hangers for $13.00 and I like the way they hang my kilts.

    I have several different kilts including a custom made and they all hang properly on the SWK hangers.

    I stumbled across these... (which will teach me not to leave stuff on the floor)



    I'm not a fan of the spring-loaded clip hangers, I prefer the long slat of wood clamped on either side. These are the best I've found - 15½ inches long & felt-lined on the inside & only $8, too. Grips your kilt firmly & evenly & is long enough so that you kilt won't be drooping down on either side.

    Here's where to get 'em...

    I know there was a thread a while ago about customizing hangers for kilt use, you might want to search around here and see what others have done.
