Amazon is your friend.
I started with absolutely nothing. Now, thanks to years of hard work, careful planning, and perseverance, I find I still have most of it left.

When you have a pegboard hook in place, do you mostly tend to leave it there or do you move them around a lot? If you tend to leave them, I have a better holding method (IMO). I think I posted it here once in the past, but I'll gladly post it again if anyone is interested.

I researched this before and bought some that are thicker material, but that actually have a screw that screws them in and locks them in place. They are a game changer if you are a pegboard kinda guy. The cheap hooks are terrible.
Sorry I can't remember the name.
I'm well aware of those, but I refuse to pay the price out of principle. No judgement. That's just me. My method is free and holds the cheap hooks as well as the expensive ones. I guess it is more for those that already have a drawer full of hooks that won't stay put and don't really want to buy new ones.

I just put a dab of hot melt glue on the hanger when putting it on the peg board. It holds it in place but can still be removed.

peg board related seems like a good idea

If you have access to the rear of the pegboard then cable ties work even better.
