ABSTRACT:
An improved plastic, clamp-style garment hanger is provided. The hanger provides two clamps disposed on an I-beam-like crossbar on opposing sides of a hook. The lateral positions of the clamp are adjustable. The spring-clip that biases the garment engaging surfaces of the clamps together also provides frictional engagement between the clamps and the upper ridge of the crossbar. Hooks disposed at either end of the crossbar are suitable for engaging straps and also limit the outward lateral position of the clamps. Steps or stacking ribs disposed adjacent to the hook limit the inward lateral movement of the clamps. The spring bias of the spring-clip against the clamps resists clamp creep under the weight of a heavy garment.
