Aguja is a foldable hanger that can be easily operated with one hand.

Most hangers are rigid, so it’s difficult to take off and hang garments with closed necks on them. Aguja makes it faster and simpler as it can be folded and opened using just a hand. Its name means needle in Spanish suggesting the easy way in which the hanger is introduced and removed from the clothes.

User interaction is based on natural and simple movements related to sliding and squeezing and thanks to the smart engineered parts, it can be efficiently made in only two coupling single pieces.
