• Adjustable Sock Aid
  Constructed with a strong, yet flexible shell, the sock assist can be used to put on socks of all sizes with greater ease.

Easy to use, the sock assist handle length can also be adjusted with the button sliders to create a more comfortable grip on the soft foam handles.

  Eliminating the need to bend and twist to put on shoes, the Vive detachable shoe horn measures 23” in length and includes a large oval handle for a comfortable grip and easy storage. Suitable for use with casual, athletic and dress shoes, the extended length shoe horn features smooth, rounded edges to protect socks, hosiery and shoes and sock remover tab for pushing socks and hosiery off.

• Detachable Design
  Easily portable, the long shoe horn features a quick-release connection that separates the shoe horn into two pieces for convenient storage and travel. The detachable shoe horn is made with a strong composite material that is lightweight and durable.
