I ordered these for myself, but my husband saw them and wanted them He loves them! He mostly uses a long-armed shoe horn to put his shoes on, but if he's sitting down, he can use his fingers to put his shoes on without using the shoe horn. The Glydes, for me, were too difficult to use, as I wear a leg brace and I need to open up my shoes to get my leg brace and foot into my shoe. I do not have the dexterity in my hands and fingers to put my foot into my shoe and keep the tongue from going inside the shoe.
