The invention, dubbed the IMPROVE, addresses a common physical challenge for individuals who rely on walking aids. By attaching a shoe horn directly to the cane or crutch, the design ensures the tool is always at hand, eliminating the need for awkward reaching or external assistance. The device is lightweight and adjustable, intended to function without impeding the primary use of the walking aid itself.

New Cane Attachment Simplifies Putting on Shoes
Gravenhurst inventor develops a patent-pending shoe horn attachment for walking canes and crutches, aiming to assist those with limited mobility. The device, designed for easy integration with standard walking aids, allows users to put on or remove footwear and socks independently without discarding their cane.
Currently, the invention is being represented by InventHelp for potential licensing or sale to medical equipment manufacturers. Prototypes and technical schematics are available for interested parties looking to bring the product to market. The developer suggests the design could eventually become a recommended tool in clinical settings for patients requiring consistent support.
