- Kirby Allison, the founder of the Hanger Project, takes you on a quick tour of his closet. A gentleman’s closet/wardrobe is one of the first and last places he will see in a day. For that reason, it is important to keep that space clean, organized, and relaxing. In this video, Kirby shows some of the things he has done to his home’s closet in order to meet those criteria.

The story of The Hanger Project: www.kirbyallis...
As a guy who lives in a city, your definition of "small" for a closet is intriguing to me. Any closet that you can actually go into is *massive* for where I live.
this is a really large closet for the area. I have lived in several apartments, town homes, and houses throughout Texas and have never had a closet this big. But man, i already thinking about how to redesign my house to build something like this
Turk Blackwell WTH?? I thought everything was “big” in Texas!! 😂😂😂😂 I made a funny!!
Wife evicted him from the master bedroom closet into the guest room, so he turned the whole guest room into his closet.
I completely concur with your statement. I live in NYC and small is relative, very relative in this case.
Same here. My suits are stuffed in my tiny closet. I really ought to do something about that.
While not opulent like the ones you showed pictures of it's well organized, neat, and tidy. Looks like its built exactly for your needs. Thanks for sharing it and it's ideas!
We all wish we had an opulent closet, but I"m quite happy with what I was able to accomplish in what you can see is a tiny space!
The Hanger Project it is very well done taking everything into consideration.
HIS KID HAS CHARVET SHIRTS!😳 that’s awesome
Thank you for welcoming into your home and showing us your closet. I really like this video since it gives the viewer a new perspective on how to organize our wardrobe without spending a fortune. All it takes are a few dollars and a lot of thinking and space utilization planning, as you so well demonstrate. Watching your videos is not only very informative, practical, and educational but a pleasant experience and a real joy.
Thinking and planning the most important component. Same guy could have installed a closet that was worse than the original. I took notes for several weeks thinking about how I interacted with my closet to ultimately determine this design. I even measured to ensure that I could double-stack shoe boxes on the top shelf.
My dream closet ....I just loved the way you organised everything in such a small place . Thank you for sharing , as always sharing is caring 😊
You are a huge inspiration of what I strive to be as a up coming gentleman. Slowly my closet is changing to more dressy clothing. After years I finally found my true style and it's more formal and business casual. Due to the fact that I'm losing weight it just makes me more excited because clothing is looking more sleek on me. Keep up the great work Mr.Allison!!!
What a great looking closet. Well organized and something we can all try to emulate.
You rock Kirby. Thanks for making it point to slow down and appreciate the things we already have, be it our wardrobes, or whatever else we are passionate about. It is a wonderful thing to stop and appreciate.
I just remind myself when I look at all the stuff I have collected.... "you can't take it with you", and "it's all gonna burn." It really keeps me balanced.
Jack Benny said you can take it with you. ;)
Thank you for this wonderful tour. I recently discovered you and the Hanger Project. I’m almost 56 and just now trying to define my style. You Sir are an inspiration.
Thanks, Martin! Never too late!
This is so cool. I don't even have dressers in my room. All my clothes are in my closet. Shirts and jeans for example are all in plain view and it is pleasant to the eye to see all the colors. Shoes at the bottom. Ties on a carousel rack. Very cool closet!
Wow!
It was awesome to experience a personal perspective of your amazing collection.
I enjoyed it! 👏
My pleasure!
Simple and classy!
That's what I expected your home would look like; it looks great!
Thanks! It is modest, but we love it.
What a wonderful closet I think I shall model my closet after yours i love it.Thanks for sharing it with us kirby.
Great to see a relatively small space organized so efficiently! got a few great ideas for our closets! thank you.
Oh man this is amazing! We just went from a super tiny condo to an old charming home built in 1912! So much character and charm and space for me to setup an office and record videos and write easier! There are a small walk-in and linen size closet in our room currently, but there is enough room from previous owners closing in the balcony to make huge on-suite bathroom that I think my wife will get the walk-in and I'll get the linen closet that I may fit just for shoes it trousers and then build a larger walk-in for the rest!
Great video!!
Kirby’s closet is more of a temple I love this so much.
Another brilliant video. Thank you for sharing.
*"My wife evicted me out of the bedroom closet"* 😂
Yet you recovered in style.
This is one burden when Men get Married.
Kiby Allison is my new Mr. Rogers... So calm and happy about what he is doing.
what an enjoyable sneak peek into a private refuge. Well done Kirby.
Kirby, thank you so much for a wonderful insight into how you keep your clothing and dressing products, fantastic.
This has given me some great ideas for our retirement home.
At the moment I have 3 wardrobes in different rooms and shoes on top of one another. I am trying to find a good bedroom storage builder in the UK. I have found one at last to give me a design similar to yours. So thank you very much indeed.
“Can’t wait to be out of that phase” hahahaha
Nice! Great to see a well organized closet! I have a similar layout closet but with way too many shoes and boots. The storage stool is a brilliant idea and one that I'll be adding to my closet. I share the closet with my wife but I have many more clothing items and footwear than she does.... if only I could get her to move her stuff to a guest room closet! haha Love the idea of placing pictures on outside of boxes for easy identification also, time to pony up for a handy Polaroid printer! Thanks for the tips and tour!
Thanks, Jim! Good luck with your wife. Be careful, seems like that one could backfire pretty severely! haha.
Nice. Thanks for letting me into you home Mr. Allison.
I specifically applaud your shirts. They are classy and beautiful.
Thank you!! Love my shirts...
Man, that is an inspiration. Right now I don't have a lot of stuff to wear, but you are aspirational to the max.
Kirby adding a closet upgrade adds to the resale of your home, something i was told when we had our walk-in closets upgrades, I love the Felix Unger organization,
Stylish man with classy closet! Loved it
A really organized closet! Thanks for share and greetings from Brazil 🇧🇷
Love the “Albert” chain. Would love to see what’s at the end of it!
Thank you for bringing us in.
Impressive closet. The thing that impressed me most is the fact u have thread and needles in ur dresser and u can stitch up minor things such as nicks on socks and u can sew up ur shirt buttons urself. This goes to show how passionate and organised u are as a person. I like the photo of u wth ur mother. Ur parents have done a wonderful job. I am sure u make them proud! I wud like to see a necktie collection and a cufflinks collection. Thank u.
Thanks,Canal! Great suggestion. I'll add those to my list!
I love your closet. Your clothes. Your style. Your look. And most of all, your shoes. Nice !!! - A guy in Montreal
Thanks! I still feel like it is an incredibly small wardrobe (although it may not appear like that).
Hmm, brilliant use of not-a-lot-of-space. I'm in a 1950 suburban colonial that was originally 1400sf, and the closets are tiny. Previous owner did make the MBR closet into one that is my wife's then a smaller one that is mine with shelves. But you gave me some ideas to improve storage. Never thought to go seasonal.
Hello from Austin. Nice, well-organized closet without unnecessary frou-frou.
Beautiful mind brings beautiful life.
Thank you for sharing.
The best addition to any of my closets was cedar flooring fixed on the ceiling. I've since moved and unfortunately don't have any pictures. But aside from the benefits of cedar, the aesthetics of wood ceiling was amazing. It was relatively inexpensive, so I'll probably be doing it again in the new place.
In our next house, I'm definitely having the closet made out of cedar. Even if it is just the wall and ceiling.
This video inspired me to redo my family room and master closets. I used a wire shelving system from the local big box store. The experience lead me to wonder if KAHP could do more “real” clothes and accessory storage content for those of us who need to temper our per square foot expectations but still want to store our items well.
topic request: explain your daily routine in terms of shoe care and clothes care. I got the idea after your video about collar stays... so many things I do not know!! thanks for your videos!
Very nice to see inside your home. Thank you for sharing!
A very honest tour. A definite family man.
You show some very good ideas. I especially like the air circulator/dust remover. Thanks for posting. Man you have a lot of clothes!
I know just what you mean. I get such an “up” feeling when I’m going through my closet.
Thank you very much sir! I appreciate your experience and take on style for a gentlemen to the fullest
First Mr. Allison let me say thanks for indeed a wonderful tour of your well organized closet I greatly appreciate all the helpful suggestions on how to maximize closet space excellent video
Thank you, Mr. Gadson!
I really really love this channel.
I agree...this is a most enjoyable channel!
Very nice, and practical closet!
Very nice use of space! You've managed to squeeze more dollars' worth of suits, shirts, and shoes into that one modest sized walk-in closet than my entire home is worth! lol
Love it. So practical.
I would've sworn you'd have one of those $10k closets with tons of space. Great to see what you did with the space you did have. Great vid.
Wow, fantastic video! I am very jealous of your beautiful wardrobe!
Thank you! It wasn't built overnight and is still smaller than I would like it to be!
Thanks very much for this video and opening up your home to us. I found it authentic and practical.
Thanks, Michael! Anything you think you'll do differently?
I think your presentation style is unique and delivery concise. Just keep it up. I plan to start a youtube channel for this market (Africa) and will reach out for tips.
Expensive wardrobe!
Thank you Kirby for sharing your closet with us. I absolutely love how organized, detailed and deliberate it is! How do you store old items that are for sentimental value and that you do not necessarily wear? Also how do you keep tabs of what you wore when to give your closet more wear longevity and avoid wearing some items too frequently?
That’s an amazing closet! A different kind of “Man Cave!” Another great video Kirby. I have 4 entries for the Shoe Shine Kit! I have invited others via Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram! 🙏🤞Hoping 4 is enough!
Thanks for entering!
Amazing useful video 👌
Kirby is the Mr. Rogers of fashion and etiquette.
Such a great chanel, I hope to one day purchase from your website, wish you went into more details about your watches, but then again this isn't a watch channel, great work !
Nice!! It's remarkable what you did with a small space. Heck my closet space is bigger yet you put me to shame :). Now I'm really motivated to get a closet system built. Thanks. Good video
awesome video.. love the light coming off the heel of your shoes.
Impressive room . Well organized
Thanks!
Such a beautiful collection and closet . I'll have this one day ;)
Good organization but what I really want to know what do you wear if you need to run to a 7-11 or Walgreens ?
Thank you for the video!
Nice video. Thanks for sharing this special place of your home. It would be nice to see a video about your criteria for watch collecting.
Thanks! Yes! That is a video we are working on.
Your closet looks a lot like my dream closet. I do not want it too big as i love the enclosed space feeling. However I want it big enough for an armchair so I can read and relax in peace!
That’s a nice realistic closet.
I am really enjoying your work my friend. I wish you much success and will start supporting your company.
Thank you! We are having fun!
Great video....thanks for sharing. Although you answered the question I had on what to do about dust, please can you tell me what you do about moths/insects that eat clothing?
Check out this video about care against moths etc: th-cam.com/video/13pVQ7WFxLw/w-d-xo.html
Great video Kirby!! Great ideas! Thanks for sharing.
I really enjoyed your video, especially your personal anecdotes
Buddy your wardrobe is so impressive I don't even have that many things that I need that many things but I mean just props props props to you man you you just keep amassing a wardrobe I'm trying to minimize my wardrobe I mean just props to you if you generally make a very good job of it and because I don't even have that big of a closet space my closet is real small actually so I have to I just have to stack dress shirts on dress shirts you know just make sure that they don't you know and the space is even getting like taken over bye
I also have the same type of walk in closet. This was a great vid !
Great work Kirby!
Watched twize, wish you succes so your closet will grow and moore videos will come.
Thank you Kirby, very nice setup! I'm an old soul, and I love the old days. I love the 30's & 40's style menswear and houses. You have a beautiful, old home! May I ask what state your house is in? I also like listening to the Old Time Radio shows, particularly, "The Shadow."
Take care, and I look forward to more videos.
I live in Dallas, Texas. Sounds like we have many similar interests and would get along quite nicely!
The Hanger Project Yes Kirby, we certainly would! I forgot to mention, I LOVE the lighting on your decor, in the beginning of your video!
I’d kill for this closet! I own a 1950’s ranch home and the closet is miniature. Maybe 1/4 this size
Well-organised wardrobe!
A closet dehumidifier is a must for older homes.
Wish I could have this instead I have a old wardrobe
Kirby, thank you for sharing your home with us . I will take these tips into consideration with my own closet .
Also I have a questions that can use your expertise on . I bought a pair of Paul Evens Semi-Brogue Oxford , in age cognac . How do I polish a two tone color shoe without messing it up ? I feel this would be a great video for you too.
Hello sir.
A friend of mine has a couple antique travel chests.
Things are quite large and open up to reveal their small closets with hangers drawers even hat storage. Made of bull hide brass and redwood to with stand the rigors of 1930s travel. 4 feet tall 3 feet wide opened up they are stunning.
Question.. do you and Mrs.Allison ever have style "conversations"?
He lives strangely. :D it's not about the size of the wardrobe. 1. Shoes, no matter how clean they were, smell of turpentine and sweat. 2. Clothes smell after a day of wearing, even a jacket, and shirts smell like powder after washing. 3. you can Fix socks on a burned-out light bulb, as it was done in the USSR.
Hi your house is beautiful and great closet
That closet is the size of my garage (with better utilities) and it contains more clothes and definitely more shoes than I have ever owned in my entire life. It is a cathedral of self indulgence I am impressed, but worried at the same time.
I really enjoyed that and found it inspirational even.
Hi. Nice honest video. Question, would you ever invest in a Corby Trouser Press?
Topic Request: Do you ever bring your shoes to a cobbler, and what should we look for in a good trustworthy cobbler?
We need a new closet tour, Kirby!
great closet! perfect
Please do a video on all the Charvet shirts you have
I AM IN LOVE !!!!!!
Thanks!
Dream closet, so nice.
It's modest, but thanks!
Modest is good, I was working towards this same concept, until the hurricane Harvey flood. I am starting over in a new location and will get there one day soon.
Michael Fischer sorry to hear about that. The hurricane affected a lot of my family also. Hopefully you’ve got some insurance money to help you restart!
I did, and it has helped but there were more people that lost mote than myself. I cut my losses and moved closer to Houston since I tend to work in the area a lot, well pretty much all around Texas and Louisiana. I got enough to get into another home. I am sorry to hear about your family I know how they feel. My heart goes out to all who suffered in the storm, it really effected so many, mentally, physically and financial.
I knew your home would have class, real old school class. I also love that you spent so little on the closet. I feel the same way, the less you spend on the closet the more you have for more bespoke shoes! :) it shows as well that one does not have to spend a fortune to have an efficient and good looking closet.
Oh, and I can’t wait for your watch video, did I spy a gorgeous Chopard complication, perpetual calendar?
You've got a really good eye... yes, the Chopard Perpetual Calendar was a gift from my wife on my 30th birthday. A very special watch. I've been fascinated with perpetual calendars since I first started learning about watches in high school. Easily my favorite of all the grand complications.
The closet does not have to be something one spends a ton of money on. What I liked about this particular closet company is that they were able to deliver all the functionality I needed without having to pay for finishing.
Kirby, I love watches. I have done ever since being given my first watch, a Timex when I was eight years old back in the 1970’s, a gift from my older brother for being a Paige boy at his wedding!
I collect mainly vintage pieces from the 1940’s and 50’s though own a few newer watches also.
I love Chopard, it’s a company I regard as old school class if that makes sense? Not everyone knows about them but if you are into watches or very fine jewelry then it is a company that garners huge respect.
The Perpetual calendar I think is one of the most fascinating complications. The fact that leap years and odd months are accounted for purely by mechanical means is a great achievement I think.
You can tell you really love watches as one minute you could be wearing this, the next the Datejust and then your Timex. To me that is a watch enthusiast that loves the history of horology.
What I think would be a lovely addition is a simple gold dress watch from the likes of Vacheron or Patek from the 1950’s, I think it would suit your style and deportment wonderfully.
Thank you for your comment! What a great story - thank you for sharing. I, too, have always been fascinated by watches. I fell in love with this Chopard - especially with it's retrograde date indicator. A very elegant, simple timepiece. This watch is from the 1990's, and I found one of the original ads for the watch, which I had framed. This was back before Chopard started making all the movements in-house. The ebauche is Jeager. It's an absolutely lovely watch that is currently my favorite.
It is funny you mention a more simple gold dress watch... just for Christmas I acquired a Patek Calatrava 3919. Another beautiful watch. Ill film a watch video here soon!
very cool
Kirby Allison taught the Dos Equis man everything he knows
My last Job before the Navy required me to read, "Dress for Success" by John Malloy. Have you read it? Had to abide by it on our business trips.
I need a closet like this!!
