Numerals 11 denote springs hav ing ends engaged in the loops 6. Pants engaging elements are denoted generally by the letter P. Each element P comprises a pair of substantially spaced parallel coextensive V-shaped sides including longer legs 12 and shorter legs 14. The shorter legs 14 'merge into the ends of a convolute 15. The springs 11 are engaged with the convolute 15. The inner sides of the legs 12 are serrated as indicated at 16.
