A plastic hook for securement to a paper hanger body, and a method of assembling same. The plastic hook provides a sizer for displaying indicia about the garment, particularly a crown sizer.

A garment hanger includes a hook and an arm. The hook is configured to receive a support rod, and the arm is coupled to the hook and extends outwardly to a free arm end. The arm includes a first substantially planar panel and a top panel extending rearwardly from a top edge of the first substantially planar panel. The arm further includes an indentation and a finger. The indentation is defined adjacent the first substantially planar panel to be at least partially open in a direction facing away from the first substantially planar panel. The indentation defines an outermost edge nearest the free arm end and an innermost end nearest the hook. The finger extends from one of the outermost edge and the innermost edge of the indentation toward the other and is configured to hold a portion of a garment within the indentation.

A storage system, comprising a body having a cavity therein configured to house one or more items, and an opening defined by the body and a panel configured to mate with the opening and prevent access to the cavity when the panel is in position; a first lock system between the body and the panel and providing a locked condition in which the panel is locked to the body thereby preventing removal of the panel and access to the cavity, an attachment mechanism coupled to one end of the body and configured to suspend the device; and the body configured to be covered by an article of clothing such that if suspended from a clothes rod among other clothes, the body is substantially disguised as an article of clothing.

In selected examples, a clothes storage system includes a garment holder designed to receive and store at least one garment, an electromagnetic radiator attached to the garment holder, power circuitry configured to provide electrical drive to the electromagnetic radiator to cause the electromagnetic radiator to radiate radio frequency (RF) power, and a data interface configured to establish short range wireless communication links. The garment holder may be, e.g., a clothes hanger, a garment bag, a travel garment bag, or a walled enclosure such as a closet in a dwelling or an office. The data interface may be a short range RF transceiver, e.g., a Bluetooth® transceiver. The radiated RF power is received by the powered garments in/on the garment holder and converted into DC charging power used to recharge batteries of the powered garments. The data interface may allow the powered garments to communicate with external networks, e.g., the Internet.

A firearm storage and safety device for securing and hiding a firearm includes a clothes hanger and a holster. The clothes hanger comprises a hook and a panel. The hook is engaged to and extends from an upper edge of the panel equally distant from opposed sides thereof. The hook can engage a clothes rod to hang the clothes hanger. The holster is engaged to a respective opposed face of the panel. A firearm can be inserted into the holster so that the firearm is engaged to the panel. An article of clothing, such as a coat or a jacket, can be hung from the clothes hanger to conceal the firearm.
