FootMatters Long Handled Metal Expander Shoe Horn Flex Spring End - Extendable & Collapsible 16" To 31"

The best feature of this is something that I’d never thought I’d come to compliment on: the addition of the flex spring on the bottom joint of the shoe horn. It takes the wiggling out of using a shoe horn compared to the regular non-flexy ones. The shoe horn itself is thin (but sturdy non-bendable metal) and takes up very little space in the shoe. Coupled with it being a smooth stainless steel and the flex spring joint, putting my shoes on was quick and easy. I didn’t have to adjust anything. I didn’t have to bend over to fix anything. I didn’t have to stick a finger into the heal to secure it. It just slides right in. It puts my shoe on perfectly. Although it’s collapsible, once we’ve expanded the shoe horn handle, we’ve never collapsed it. We’ve left it expanded and hanging on the door of the coat/shoe closet. I simply don’t take this out with me, but it IS nice that it’s collapsible and expandable, in cases where I’d want to bring it with me, say for traveling. It is very lightweight, and easy to clean, so I wouldn’t mind at all. Also, our heights at 5’5, the shoe horn is at a very generous length for us. After using a shoe horn with a flex spring on the joint, I’ve come to appreciate the improved design over the traditional slab of wood/plastic. I think that both have it’s own benefits, but I like the addition of being able to take this with me as well since it’s collapsible. Stainless steel also seems… cleaner.

Helps me out so much, I was having issues bending over due to my back and it was ruining the backs of my shoes trying to force my foot in! This has solved both problems and the length is fully adjustable. I love this thing. It is saving me from pain! I highly recommend, I give it an A+!
