The AFO cradle can be rotated in a variety of positions within the docking base for donning an AFO using only one hand at a position of choice. A shoe platform is also provided for engagement with the docking base in which includes an inclined upper surface for placement of a shoe and which is designed for releasable engagement with the docking base and with the AFO cradle to stabilize the shoe platform during donning of a shoe. Adjustable pins are provided to accommodate various AFO and shoe sizes during the donning process.
