A lightweight, molded plastic hanger comprises a hook member; a body member extending longitudinally from the hook member, the body member defines first and second ends. The hanger also comprises a garment retaining clip integrally molded with the body member at each of the first and second ends. Each garment retaining clip comprises first and second opposed clip sides defining a garment receiving channel therebetween. The first clip side comprises a first downwardly extending member mounted to the end of the body member by a first cantilever mount and has a spaced end, and a second upwardly extending member integrally connected to the spaced end of the first member by a second cantilever mount and has a spaced free end. The second clip side comprises a downwardly extending second clip side member which is positioned opposed to and spaced from the first clip side to define the garment receiving channel therebetween. The garment receiving channel defined by the first and second opposed clip sides proceeds from a bottom opening of the garment receiving channel, upwardly and inwardly towards the hook member to a top garment retaining position. The radial difference between the bottom opening and the top garment retaining position is approximately 0.125 inches, such that as a garment is inserted fully into the garment retaining 1clip, the length of the garment shrinks approximately 0.125 inches at each end of the garment hanger, which also means that the length of the garment must be expanded or stretched 0.125 inches at each end of the garment hanger to remove the garment from the garment retaining clip, which deters accidental dislodgement of the garment therefrom. The first downwardly extending member and second upwardly extending member each has the same width W as the body member to resist movement into and out of a plane defined by the body member.
