Heavy Duty Knit - to hang or fold?

Just treated myself to my first Dehen 1920 piece, but not sure about how to go about storing it. I know it's generally not advisable to hang knits, but this seems like a pretty damn solid coat. I feel like I could hang it with no issues, but wanted to get thoughts. https://dehen1920.com/collections/jackets/products/knit-work-coat-sage

I would fold this

Hmmm is it structured? Like if you hold it up with one hand does it droop and flex like a sweater? I’d probably fold it to be safe tho

Or use a fat hanger like for suit jackets or other coats

To be 100% sure tho you could probably ask them directly

I was leaning towards folding as well, but I'm out of room for folded goods I'll email them, but they were super slow with email responses regarding the coat initially 😅

I would definitely fold. It looks heavy AF, which means more deformation from hanging

I have a sweater from Dehen 1920 (though not this style) and I fold mine. It’s SO heavy, there’s no way I would trust hanging it.
