In daily life, putting on shoes is a trivial matter, but it may become a problem for pregnant women, middle-aged and elderly people, and people with limited mobility. The emergence of a retractable shoe horn perfectly solves this problem and becomes a must-have and thoughtful helper at home.

Origin and Development

The history of shoe horns is very old. In the Qing Dynasty, Li Guangting made a special description of "shoe horns" in "Xiangyan Jieyi·Wubu Shang·Miscellaneous Ten Things". With the changes of the times, the materials and styles of shoe horns have been continuously enriched, from the precious ivory, jade, gold, silver and other materials in ancient times to the common plastic, wood, metal and so on today. The retractable shoe horn is developed on the basis of the traditional shoe horn. It pays more attention to humanized design and provides people with a more convenient use experience.

Users can easily adjust the length of the shoe horn according to their height, sitting or standing posture, and the type of shoes they wear. They can easily put on shoes without bending or squatting. It is especially suitable for pregnant women, middle-aged and elderly people, and people with waist and knee diseases or mobility difficulties.

2. Widely applicable: Whether it is leather shoes, sports shoes, cloth shoes, or high boots and other types of shoes, the retractable shoe horn can play its role and help people put on shoes quickly and easily.

3. Strong durability: The retractable shoe horns on the market are usually made of high-quality materials such as stainless steel, plastic, wood, etc. These materials are durable, not easy to rust, not easy to deform, and can withstand the test of long-term use.

How to use

Using a retractable shoe horn is very simple. First, adjust the long handle to a suitable length according to your needs, generally to a length that can easily reach the shoes and is easy to operate. Then, insert the curved end of the shoe horn into the heel of the shoe, making sure that the shoe horn fits tightly against the heel of the shoe. Then slowly put your foot into the shoe, while holding the long handle with your hand and gently lifting it up, using the power of the shoe horn to allow your foot to enter the shoe smoothly.

Key points for purchase

You can gently stretch and shrink the shoe horn, feel its feel and strength, and choose a product with better quality.
