About Etac Socky Long Sock Aid
Etac Socky Long Sock Aid — a pale grey sock aid with plastic plate, fabric pocket and orange pull cords that helps you with limited mobility put on short and long socks without bending to the foot.
Sock aid for short and long socks
You roll the sock onto the curved plastic plate with the fabric pocket and place the plate on the floor. You then put your foot into the opening and pull the two orange cords, which therefore slides the sock up over the foot and calf. The 60 cm length suits hip-replacement users and tall users who need extra reach.
The smooth plastic plate also slips out from inside the sock easily after the sock is on, leaving no fabric inside the sock.
