ABSTRACT:
A hanger with a rigid hook and neck centered perpendicularly to a shoulder has left and right opposing arms protruding at an angle from the shoulder portion. The stationary arms are made of a sturdy rigid material to provide the support necessary to hold garments of a heavy weight such as overcoats and wet sweaters. A flexible arm portion at the end of each stationary arm of the hanger is contorted by hand to any shape, which shape is retained without the aid of external support. The rigid stationary arms and the flexible arm portions are covered with flexible foam with an outer non-slip surface. The diameter of the flexible foam is made sufficiently ample to support a weighty garment and distribute the weight of the garment, in addition to providing a sufficiently large non-slip surface. The flexible hanger is adjustable and re-adjustable to conform to the shape of the desired garment and retain its shape without external support.
