31" Long Handled Shoe Horn - MADE IN THE USA - Flexible Spring - Solid Wood Handle - 31 Inch Length

I've had several long shoe horns (about 20") and learned to love them. But one broke, I scanned available products, and decided to try this longer product. The reviewers are right, it's a best of class. Very well made, shipped in a remarkably sturdy mailing tube and arrived without a blemish. Just right to use standing up (ah, how often luxuries become necessities!)... I was concerned about the spring just above the horn, but it works well: stiff enough to not lose control of the horn positioning, soft enough to allow the horn to adapt to the proper angle between foot and shoe. Unless abused, it should easily last a lifetime. The eyehole at the top of the handle accepts a ring, making it easy to hang on a clothing hook on the inside of the closet door (one less loose item to clutter, or search for). A final comment on length... I'm getting old enough to appreciate not stooping. But this design is also a winner for anyone who is in a hurry. It's a pleasure to see uncomplicated products where someone has thought about, and addressed all of the elements of easy, reliable and intuitive use and convenience. This is the kind of product that would be included in a book about classic designs.

***** I just bought this shoe horn last week and LOVE it! I was skeptical at first because of the high cost over regular plastic or even wooden long shoe horns, but was convinced by the Amazon reviews. I agree with them now wholeheartedly. I also wanted to explain that the spring that people write about is just above the shoe horn part, and enables you to maneuver your shoe and foot around so that you can easily slip into the shoes. It is a really sturdy spring; in fact the whole shoe horn is very sturdy, and ends in a hook so that it can be easily stored on the wall. I will be buying another one of these for our home, because despite the expense, they are so easy to use that I don't want to struggle with others at all. Even if you don't have trouble bending over, who wants to sit down on the floor in dress clothes to struggle with their shoes? It's so easy just to slip them on with this. I'm very glad that this was invented to address a common problem. Highly recommended. *****

Looks good, well made. Only reason for 4 stars is it looks higher in quality online than actually is. Great product though and works fine. One more thing, if you have large feet/heels, this may not work for you. I have size 10 men's and it just fits comfortably.

I originally bought my first long shoe horn more than 10 years ago. At that time it was difficult for me to get shoes on because of a bad hip joint. After a hip replacement, I could flex enough to get a shoe on, but I was hooked on the convenience of this shoe horn and continued to use it. Very well made. It's great for getting work boots (or any other shoes) on and off easily, so if you are changing shoes multiple times a day this is for you! They make a thoughtful gift for friends as well.

Long enough but the spoon is too thick. Would rather have had a metal spoon, wider and thinner but I'll do with what they sent. It is made well, the spring loaded stick prevents breakage, I'll learn to use it. I can adapt.

I had high expectations for this shoe horn having owned a long handled leather shoe horn many years ago that fell apart when the leather got worn out. This works great. The strong spring really acts as your hand would as you position and maneuver the horn into place and insert your foot into your shoe. The construction is superb and well finished. The shoe horn, when not in use, now hangs proudly on a hook in our mud room. And that a superb product is manufactured in the US is a big plus too.

I am so glad I found this product in 2013. I was so happy with it, I bought one in the shorter 19" size for travel and still use it whenever I am on the road for overnight trips. The longer one I bought for home use and it has served me reliably for 8 years of everyday use! The heavy plastic horn finally broke today, so I am ordering a replacement. I'll use my shorter "road warrior" until the replacement arrives! I am not at all disappointed in the 8 years of everyday use I got from the 1st one.

It works great, does what I hoped it would do, saves on my bad back. The spring that attaches the shoe horn to the handle does a great job being flexible and allowing easy use of the shoe horn without stress on it. It works as advertised. The only thought I have, and it may not be founded, time will tell, is that the handle seems like it might not hold up over time. Overall, I am very pleased with my choice.
