Abstract: A device and method for putting on therapeutic elastic stockings in which the device includes inner and outer slipper members which are connected to one another at one of their ends, with the other ends of such members being free from connection with one another. During use, the inner slipper is turned into the outer slipper so that the walls are adjacent to one another and then slipped over the user's foot. After a stocking is placed on the foot over the device, the device is removed by pulling on the outer slipper.

Abstract: The means for putting on therapeutic elastic stockings consists of a sock of smooth material to cover the foot, the sock being provided with a lining of smooth and supple material. The lining has been partly attached to the sock, partly set free from it, the free part at the end being closed and having such a length that it can be taken out as far as outside the sock and can be turned in up to the toe of the sock, a situation that takes place when the sock is positioned round the foot of the user. Besides the lining is characterized by the fact that it is attached to the sock where the foot steps in and that the length of the free part of the lining is substantially equal to the length of the sock.
