The humble hanger hasn’t changed much over the last century since its inception in 1903 by Albert J. Parkhouse.

That is until Rick Thornton watched his struggling partner with baby on her hip attempt to put her clothes away.

The hangers were snapping and trying to get them into the clothing looked awkward and tiring. Either another hand was needed or a better hanger!

So, after careful observation (and helping of course!), he took to the shed to create the prototype that would change the way we clothe our hangers, and Clothe It was born!

One can only wonder if other great timesaving inventions like the washing machine and dishwasher were also born out of love like this!
