Get Dressed Without Bending or Twisting
The DMI® Shoe Horn and Sock Aid Kit makes putting on and taking off socks and shoes noticeably easier, without the excessive bending or twisting that can be uncomfortable or difficult for anyone with limited mobility. Designed for seniors and those recovering from injury or surgery, the kit brings sock and shoe assistance together in one easy-to-use, easy-to-store set.
The flexible sock aid slides socks and hosiery smoothly into place with a simple 3-step process, while the accompanying shoe horn extends reach to eliminate bending when putting on shoes. Both pieces feature an easy-grip handle for comfortable, confident use, and the kit is FSA/HSA eligible.

Equipment Specialist Insight: Getting dressed is one of those everyday tasks that becomes genuinely difficult after hip or back surgery, or with ongoing mobility limitations — bending down to reach feet is often restricted or painful in exactly the recovery period when independence matters most. Pairing a sock aid with a shoe horn addresses the two most common friction points in one kit, rather than needing to source them separately. For anyone recovering from hip surgery specifically, a physical or occupational therapist can confirm whether bending restrictions apply and how to use this kit safely within those restrictions.
