Manufacturer's description

Socky Stocking Aid assists those with impaired mobility to put socks on, stocking and support stockings. Particularly suited to users with back, hip or knee problems.

Help and advice

How to use a stocking aid:

  • Hold the semi-circular part (gutter) of the stocking aid between your knees and ease the stocking over it. If you are using a floor standing stocking aid, this may be placed on a flat surface for you to ease the stocking over it.
  • Place the stocking aid onto the floor using the handle/s or by holding the tapes or ribbons.
  • Slide your foot into the stocking. If using a flexible or gutter style aid, you may like to press your foot against a firm object while you pull the gutter up over your heel and the back of your leg.
  • Pull the gutter up until you are able to reach the stocking with your hand.
  • Remove the gutter and pull the stocking up to the required height.1,2
