I also loved that 90% or more of the pieces I bought there were quality, unique and MADE IN CANADA, something that should always be trending in fashion. I always felt guilty leaving that store with my big bag of scores where any where else the same price would've bought me 2 or 3 items from China. You are missed even today Hangers!!

I noticed many of the same things that Winners has, but Hangers prices were a lot lower.

The Portage Place store is absolutely jam-packed with merchandise to the point that it's difficult to move around - the real problem is that little of it is appealing.<br /><br />For what it's worth, there are still (as far as I know) Hangers locations in other cities including Edmonton and Saskatoon. Is it safe to assume that they are closing too?One Man Committeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10586227505412268204noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5854734498362657333.post-7022642962623350362011-05-11T02:23:40.831-05:002011-05-11T02:23:40.831-05:00That's been closed for a couple of years now.,...That's been closed for a couple of years now., they just kept the mall outlets.<br /><br />When it first came out it was something quite new to the scene but when Winners came in they really 'category killed' that market Hangars had to itself locally. <br /><br />I'm not sure if there was much 'fashion' or decent labels being sold at Hangars in the past few years.<br /><br />It is too bad, though, to lose another local business.Christian Cassidyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17691310860448400887noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5854734498362657333.post-49468330969932602872011-05-10T23:42:54.125-05:002011-05-10T23:42:54.125-05:00Didn't they have a location by the airport?
