ABSTRACT:
A device for remotely pulling on and removing nether garments comprising a pair of grabber arms that each have curved inner and outer jaws between which the garment top is spread and clamped. Clamping of the jaws is accomplished remotely by means of a cable connected to the jaws and to a handle through an extension shaft. A fulcrum-assist release lever and crescent shaped hook in the handle act as an eccentric and provide clamping action by pulling the outer jaws to the inner jaws under mechanically amplified power. Once spread and clamped, the garment is opened and pulled over a foot by pulling the handles or shafts up both sides of the leg.
