A clothes hanger support for a garment bag or other similar item of luggage includes a depending bracket member pivotally supporting a lower jaw member with hanger-supporting features. A closure member and latch handle cooperates with the bracket and jaw members in a closed position to hold the latter in a hanger-retaining position. Alternatively, the closure member latch handle may be pivoted to allow the jaw member to itself pivot to an open position for insertion or removal of hangers on the support. Pivotal return of the closure member latch handle to the closed position also moves the jaw member to its hanger-retaining position by cooperation of a ramp surface and ramp-follower surface of the closure member latch handle and jaw member, respectively. Preferably, the entire hanger support may be made of four unitary components which are formed of injection molded engineering polymer.
