The Norco\nMolded Sock Aid was explicitly designed to minimize bending of the back, hips,\nand knees. Did we think of everything? We think we did. We have been designing\nand manufacturing for over 4 decades and with this experience comes knowledge\nand know-how. We designed this sock device to be durable enough to withstand\nyears of use while at the same time provide comfort by seeking materials that\ncould be finished off with soft edges to protect skin, socks, and stockings.\nWe then took a unique approach and designed in triangle handles to minimize\nbending of the wrist and to encourage the use of larger muscle groups to pull\nsocks up rather than relying exclusively on hands that may be swollen, painful\nor lack fine motor control to perform such a task.
