Description
The Dorking Stocking Aid is designed to make dressing routines safer and more manageable for those with limited flexibility or joint pain. The inner nylon surface allows socks or stockings to slide on smoothly, while the terry cloth outer layer holds the garment securely in place during donning.
To use, the sock or stocking is placed over the trough, the foot is inserted, and long looped handles are pulled to guide the garment up the leg – eliminating the need to bend or reach.
Lightweight and compact, the Dorking Stocking Aid is suitable for daily use at home or while travelling. Its durable fabric design is easy to handle and supports long-term, independent dressing.
