Shoehorn description |
---|
A shoehorn or shoe horn (sometimes called a shoespooner or shoe tongue) is a tool that enables the user to insert the foot more easily into a shoe by maintaining the shoe's counter in the upright position and by providing a smooth surface on which the foot may slide into the shoe. * Originally, shoehorns were made from animal horns, hooves, glass, or paper. Luxury shoehorns were made from ivory, shell, silver, or bone. Today, some made from bulls' hooves are still available for purchase, although metal, plastic, and wood are most often used. * There are various sizes of shoehorns, though the basic shape varies little except for the length of the handle. Long handled shoe horns, for example, are necessary for longer boots; they are also used to reduce bending and straining by persons lacking joint mobility (e.g., older persons), while shoe horns with sturdy handles are useful for putting on boots or heavy iron shoes. |
