ABSTRACT:
Apparatus for putting on hosiery when physical disability will not allow normal procedures to be followed includes an elongated handle fitted to a tiltable foot plate. An upper end of the handle is held by the handicapped person initially to hold the plate beneath the sole of his foot. Spaced hooks are provided on the plate to support the top of a sock open around the toes whereupon the handle is raised to pull the sock onto the foot. As this is done, means on the handle allow the foot plate to be tilted to pass behind the heel. The handle carries other means operable from the upper end of the handle to release the sock when the plate is fully tilted and the sock is completely on the foot.
