Abstract
A pants hanger is formed with parallel spaced first and second elongated support portions depending from a third support portion having a hook adapted to engage a horizontal clothes bar. The second support portion is cantileveredly positioned above the first support portion and is integrally connected by the first support portion to the third support portion. The free end of the second support portion extends past the integral connection of the first and third support portions to form a guide. In one embodiment, the support portions of the hanger are formed by bending a one-piece metal rod. The hanger is attached to a pair of pants by inverting both the pants and the hanger and then moving the hanger so that the second support portion slides onto one side of the pants, and the first and third support portions slide onto the other side of the pants. When the hanger is rotated to an upright position, the pants wrap around the second support portion and are retained in a depending position below the hook.
