Abstract: An article for use in putting on and removing a shoe. The article includes a seat assembly including a seat resting above a support. The article further includes a foot rest assembly attached to the seat assembly, and a shoe support retained by the seat assembly. The foot rest assembly includes a foot rest positionable at a selected location in front of the seat assembly and angled upwardly towards the seat assembly to present an inclined surface to a person sitting on a seat of the seat assembly. The shoe support is positionable to extend horizontally and laterally outwardly of the seat assembly at a selected location. A person may therefore sit on the seat, pick up a shoe which is resting on the shoe support, and put it on his or her foot which is resting on the foot rest. Alternatively, the person can remove a shoe from a foot resting on the foot rest and place the shoe on the shoe support. The need to bend over to reach the ground for a shoe is eliminated through use of the article and a shoe rack.
