Pants Hangers (Rods, Racks, Slats)
It's rather odd, but despite how much time I've spent in closets, I have yet to encounter this alternative method to hanging pants. Do you know the one? Rather than being hung on regular hangers, the pants are folded over a rod/pole/slats, which I suppose must extend out (like this gliding pant rack), or hung on open-ended hangers.
