ABSTRACT:
A holder for pants and like garments for mounting on a vertical surface. This holder (10) is unitary in construction, and is formed with a back panel (12) having apertures (18) for receiving fastening means therethrough for mounting purposes. Attached proximate the top edge of the back panel is an open body member (20) that is substantially co-extensive with the back panel. This body member is generally C-shaped in cross-section, and is typically formed from a top panel (22), a front panel (24), and a lower lip member (26) which extends back toward the back panel. This lip terminates a selected distance from the back panel to form a garment-receiving slot (28). The entrances to the slot are enhanced by providing rounded corners (30) at both ends of the lip. By this construction, a garment can be slid into the slot from either end and be supported in an upright manner in the holder. The body has sufficient space within whereby even pants with a belt unremoved can be stored. The flexibility of the C-shaped body permits the storage of garments of various thickness, and this is useful for pants, skirts and other like garments. Several embodiments are described to illustrate various means of fabrication of the holder of the present invention. In a preferred embodiment, the holder is provided with a tray on the top thereof for holding miscellaneous accessories such as rings, pins, etc.
