ABSTRACT:
A garment hanger, according to one exemplary embodiment, includes a cross-bar having first and second ends and a hook member coupled to the cross-bar to permit hanging of the garment hanger. A first clamp assembly is disposed at the first end of the cross bar and a second clamp assembly is disposed at the second end of the cross-bar. Each of the first and second clamp assemblies includes first and second clamp members that are pivotably coupled to one another and urged toward one another by a biasing element; with each of the first and second clamp members having an inner clamp surface that has a pair of locking posts extending outwardly from the inner clamp surface. Each locking post has a locking feature formed at a distal end thereof with a resilient pad being coupled to each inner clamp surface in a removable manner by inserting the locking features of the locking posts into and through complementary openings formed in the resilient pad such that the resilient pad is securely held on the inner clamp surface by an interference fit between the locking features and one face of the resilient pad.
