Summary:A clamp-type garment hanger defined by a pair of opposed jaw members between which a garment is hung. The opposed jaw members have gripping members and opposed non-ribbed gripping surfaces having an enhanced coefficient of friction. The gripping members, opposed gripping surfaces with enhanced coefficient of friction and jaw members are all formed by injection molding in one piece from the same material, which may include either polystyrene, polypropylene, polyethylene, styrene-butadiene copolymers and blends, or polycarbonates. The coefficient of friction is provided to the gripping surface by forming a texture or pattern on the surface with relief structure which does not exceed a maximum elevation, or maximum depth, from the surface. The texture or pattern may be provided by molding, engraving, acid etching, electrical discharge machining, vapor honing, or sandblasting.
