ABSTRACT:
A device to assist a person with putting on stockings, or other hosiery, includes a pair of posts connected by a hinge. Each post is fitted with a hosiery inversion arm. A user places a sock, or the like hose, over both arms, the top inverted and the sock toe extending downward between the arms. The user then spreads the posts apart to stretch the sock open and pushes a foot into the open sock, the sock unfolding as it is mounted on the foot.
