Real eye-catchers when you have clothes hanging in an open rack.

Skai is a brand name of artificial leather of the German company Konrad Hornschuch AG, which came on the market in 1958. Over the years, the brand faded into the generic name "skai" and became synonymous with artificial leather.

Today, skai® (without a capital letter) as a brand name not only stands for artificial leather but for a range of plastic films and coverings for furniture, windows and doors, the interior trim of cars, etc.

A clothes hanger, coat hanger, or coathanger, is a hanging device in the shape/contour of:

• Human shoulders designed to facilitate the hanging of a coat, jacket, sweater, shirt, blouse or dress in a manner that prevents wrinkles, with a lower bar for the hanging of trousers or skirts.
• Clamp for the hanging of trousers, skirts, or kilts. Both types can be combined in a single hanger.
