I am looking for a shoe horn with a very long handle? Do you know any stores or internet sites?

I am 6%26#039;3%26quot; and weigh about 620 and I can%26#039;t reach my feet to tie my shoes because my large belly stops me from bending over. I would like to get a long handled shoe horn to get my shoes on without having to always ask others to help. I chose to be this way because I love being very fat. I was always doing well at reaching my own shoes but once I got to 500, I have been challenged. The first time I had to get the locker room attendants to help me after I had played golf. Since then as I put on another 100 plus pounds my large middle keeps me from getting down to put on or tie the shoes. You can mock me for being this big, I don%26#039;t mind. I would like to not have to ask my friends to do this when we go swimming.

Most better men%26#039;s stores carry long handled shoe horns. Think in terms of that store where you%26#039;d buy a suit or a nice tie. Probably in the mall or close by.

Reply:I often see these at second hand and thrift stores
Reply:IKEA is where you get the really long shoe horns. They are like a foot and a half long!

Reply:what about the ones that horseback riders use to put on their riding boots. Those are extra long and help you get yourself situated into the tight boots and then you twist it to get it out of the boot... check a tack store or an online tack store.
Reply:Your friendly local disability shop is where.





I%26#039;m sure you%26#039;ll also find them online, or if not look up your local physiotherapist and they%26#039;ll know where you get one.





I%26#039;ve got one, as I%26#039;ve got osteo arthritis, so can%26#039;t reach on my right side. Slip on shoes help too, but with winter coming up... Brrrrr!





Enjoy the swimming.





Thanks for giving permission to mock you, but I%26#039;m really not a prejudiced person. It%26#039;s your body, your life and your choice. You sound like you%26#039;re having a good time. Enjoy.
