A Suit Valet Keeps Him Stylish
March 9, 2016
There’s something about a man in a suit, but keeping that ensemble wrinkle-free and dapper isn’t always easy. Every successful man needs a quality suit valet.
Valet’s are a great addition to any wardrobe. You can find them as large or as small as you need, so they can be utilized in walk-in or standard closets — or even right in the bedroom. Different style feature different details like hangers, mirrors, shelves for personal belongings, and even shoe racks or hat racks.
One of the most popular models we have at Stacks and Stacks is the walnut designer valet from Richards Homewares. This elegant model is constructed from it’s namesake walnut wood with a dark espresso finish that compliments every decor form classic to contemporary. The slim design is a great accent for any area of the home. What’s more, it features a: jacket hanger, slacks bar, tray for personal items (i.e. wallet, keys or phone) as well as racks for your belt, tie and shoes.
Another high rated model is the mirrored valet. This design features all the same benefits as the designer valet, but it also includes a mirror. If you’re the kind of guy who always checks his hair or beard at the last minute, this little detail will shave time off your morning routine.
If that is not enough, you can take it up a notch and utilize a valet with a power outlet. Charge your electronics and lay out your suit with the Excalibur wardrobe valet. This hardwood valet is ideal for the man who likes to accessorize. Larger and enclosed shelf space allows you to stash your wallet and other personal items, and you can even plug in your phone to charge over night.
