ABSTRACT:
A walking aid is disclosed herein for use in combination with a cane, crutches or the like having a foot member provided with a centrally located base formed with a central socket for insertably receiving the tip end of the cane or crutch. The foot member is provided with several raised reinforcement ribs on its top surface that radiate outwardly between the socket and the base. The foot member is substantially rectangular in plan view having rounded corners and a plurality of ridges carried in fixed parallel spaced-apart relationship on the underside of the foot member. The opposite ends of the base curve upwardly to permit limited rolling of the foot member when used with a cane or crutch during a walking procedure.
