Abstract
A clothes hanger in which each hanger arm is adjustable in length by means of an extender arm mounted for pivoting and sliding movement along a support arm. The support arm and the extender arm each have locator elements which co-act to hold the extender arm in a selected position on the support arm. The extender arm can be pivoted to disengage the locator elements and free the extender arm to permit it to slide to a new selected position; and then pivoted in reverse direction to re-engage the locator elements. Therefore, the effective length of the hanger arm can be selected and varied as desired.
