Ron,

I assume that by "those little hanger things" you mean the two loops of ribbon attached to the inside of the waistband?

Those are not really suitable for long-term hanging of your kilt - the pleats will twist since they are not properly supported. Ideally the waistband needs to be supported along its full length, and for that reason, I use the hangers with a pair of wooden bars that clamp the entire waistband when it is folded in three with the buckles/straps done up as if it were being worn. The bars can also be slid through one, if not both, of the belt loops at the back of the kilt for extra security.

Those hanging loops on the kilt are, I believe, a throwback to the military. At night, the soldier would fold his kilt (much as I describe above) and then fold it again, in half, so that the two loops would be together. These could then be hung on a single hook above the man's bed, without taking up a lot of space. Again, not recommended for long-term storage!!
