A hands free shoehorn is shown and described. The shoehorn includes a guide member for guiding a foot of a user into an opening of a shoe. A handle projects upwardly from the guide member to facilitate insertion and maneuvering of the shoehorn. An entrapment member generally parallel to the guide member captures a heel wall of the shoe between the guide member and the entrapment member in sufficiently close fit to enable the shoehorn to remain coupled to the shoe in an operative position without the shoehorn being held by the user. The user may then slip his or her foot into the shoe with the shoehorn stably mounted on the shoe such that the user need not either hold the shoe horn or balance body weight on one leg while donning the shoe.

A shoe donning device can be formed as an insert that is placed into the shoe and remains inside of the shoe while the user wears the shoe. The device can include a contoured upper portion that defines a hooked region configured for positioning around the top of the shoe heel collar. Extending downward from the contoured upper portion is a neck portion. The neck transitions into a foot plate portion or horizontal base. A lower heel-to-sole transition region between the neck portion and foot plate portion follows the shape of the user's shoe and contours of the user's foot.

Accessorized footwear for preventing a pant leg from entering a shoe includes a shoe. A sheath is positioned in a heelcap of the shoe. The sheath extends from proximate to a heel to proximate to a topline of the shoe so that the sheath substantially bisects the heelcap. A shaft is selectively extensible from the sheath and is configured to extend proximate to an Achilles tendon of a foot that is positioned in the shoe. The shaft is positioned to deflect a bottom of a pant leg from entering a gap between the heelcap and the foot.

Disclosed herein is a shoehorn device, made for right handed or left handed users, having a long offset handle allowing the user to use the shoehorn in front of the user with good visualization. The shoehorn straddles the back of the shoe allowing the user to slip into their shoes while in front of the user. The offset handle is either mounted on the right side or the left, or a universal embodiment works in both directions. The device is useful for anyone who may desire to put on their shoes with a shoehorn in a standing position or a sitting position without having to bend forward. The device may be particularly useful for people with physical conditions, impairments, or disabilities that make bending over or otherwise reaching for their shoes difficult. The invention helps those who have difficulties inserting their feet into their shoes. The shoehorn has an attached offset long vertical handle.

A tool for removing orthotic inserts from inside of a shoe. The tool consists of a blade with a narrow tip for inserting between the edge of the orthotic and the inside of the shoe, a housing attached to the blade, the housing internally containing an LED light, a battery, a controller, and an on/off switch to active the light, and a handle use for leverage to remove the orthotic. The handle is covered by a soft pliable rubberized grip made of a silica gel material.

A shoe horn that can be used to lift clothing that would otherwise get in the way when putting on a shoe with a shoe horn. The shoe horn includes: a handle portion having a central axis; a tongue portion having a central axis; an offset transition portion between the handle portion and the tongue portion at which the central axis of the handle portion and the central axis of the tongue portion are offset from one another; and at least one appendage extending outward and upward from a front of the shoe horn at or above the offset transition portion. When using the shoe horn to put on a shoe a user first engages and lifts the lower portion clothing out of the way, then uses the shoe horn to guide a foot into a shoe.
