With a rise in small-space living adequate closet space can be hard to come by. And even if you do have closets, one flimsy hanging bar might not meet your needs. Clothing racks are a great solution for renters and owners alike. They can be used well beyond closets in mudrooms, storage units, and for impromptu tie-dye parties. While racks made with brass or reclaimed wood can soar well into the hundreds of dollars, a durable clothing rack with thoughtful design doesn't need to cost more than $100.
This is an all-in-one rack. You can hang shirts or dresses on it, place a couple pairs of shoes on the bottom foot rack, and hang a hat on the side. Bottom line: this rack can easily accommodate an entire wardrobe.
This rack comes with an extendable horizontal top rod so you can make it as big or as small as you need it to be depending on your space. The entire thing is also collapsible, making it easy to carry.

A lightweight clothing rack is ideal if you plan on using it regularly, but need to store it between uses. I’ve had this adjustable height version from Room Essentials for a few years and I use it weekly to hang-dry laundry.
For a more functional laundry room storage solution, use a 4 post rack with a drying bar and space for your dirty clothes. The frame of this version from Honey-Can-Do is rust-resistant, making it perfect for damp environments.
If you have a closet space but it’s lacking hanging bars and shelves, you can retrofit it with a freestanding system that includes wire mesh shelving, pull out baskets, and a variety of hanging bars. These can be assembled right inside the closet and the components can be mixed and matched for a perfect fit.
Not all durable clothing racks have a shiny chrome finish. This powder-coated version comes in white or black, with or without shelves, and will look great displaying your wardrobe 24/7.
