Abstract: A garment hanger includes a clamp having a pair of jaw members, wherein at least one jaw member is pivotable relative to the other between open and closed positions. The jaw members are provided with an arrangement of ridges, at least some of the ridges defining a plurality of teeth. The ridges are preferably arranged in three rows in each of the jaw members, and each row preferably extends substantially across the respective jaw member. Each of the ridges preferably has a rear wall which extends substantially perpendicular to the surface on which the ridges are located, and a front wall which extends from the surface on which the ridges are located to the rear wall such that each of the ridges in cross-section has a cuspid-like appearance. The clamp has been demonstrated to have superior gripping ability on denim jeans garments.
