Abstract

A garment hanger is provided with an elongated body member having linear surfaces so that clamp assemblies may be slid, by hand applied pressure, along the body member to desired locations, thereby providing a garment hanger of infinitely adjustable width within its working range and thus reducing the number of stockkeeping units to one, the hanger and clamp assemblies being so contoured that the clamp assemblies may be easily slid along the body member, the components being so contoured that the clamp assemblies always hang vertically, thus always presenting an impression of a neat, uncluttered appearance which makes a maximum favorable impression on the eye of a potential purchaser.
