The folding sidewings combine the benefits of both a flat stocking aid and a hard gutter-shape. When both side wings are folded, it's extremely easy to slide the stocking aid into the stocking. The side wings have large hook areas to grip the stocking as it is being pulled up the leg. The center panel has raised slide strips to reduce friction on the heel. The outside edges protect against snagging and runs. The tip acts as a long shoehorn to reduce bending when putting on shoes.
