And what a stupid name, it's not a horn.

Does anybody use these things?

The Boys showed me his Tiffany's antique sterling shoe horn from the late 1700;s worth $375K.
Pretty nice piece. :0008

The only people who use shoe horns are people who don't want to ruin fine footwear. :0008
Can't says I've ever used em on a pair of Puma or New Balance though.

Ever heard the phrase "horn in" on something? It's like that. Helps horn your foot in.

Seriously though, if you have a somewhat stiff pair of leather shoes they probably will be much easier to get on with a shoe horn, at least until they are well broken in. Just jamming your foot inside will slowly damage the counter of the shoe (the back).

I find letter openers or even a finger work in a pinch!

On the course!
I figure if you need a shoe horn, your shoes are too small.


That's another thing: I hate people who say, "My shoes are a little tight.....I am still breaking them in".

Shoes don't need "breaking in". They either fit, or they don't!
