Vitility Sock Aid with Folding Handles

Over Vitility Sock Aid with Folding Handles

Vitility sock aid – a white plastic aid with a long handle and two folding holders, which helps you put on socks and stockings without bending down to your foot.

Sock aid with a long handle

You pull the sock over the two folding holders, set the aid down by your foot and slide your toes in. Then you pull on the long handle and the sock slides up over the foot and calf without you having to reach down. The holders fold in against the shaft, so the aid takes little room in a suitcase. See also the Etac Socky Long if you would rather have a model with a fabric pocket and pull cords.
