KInEU

About this project

The solution is a solution that is implemented through a prototype invention – an extension of the eyelet tab, tongue and cuff with simultaneous fixation of the heel side of the shoe, forming guides for the entire foot. There is no need to lift a leg when putting on shoes.

The challenge

Due to the absolute numbness of the legs, there are great difficulties with putting on shoes. It is necessary to fully grasp the shoes (including the dirty soles) with your hands when putting on, the need to "toss" the legs.

Who it helps

The need knowers are people with disabilities, primarily with paralyzed legs, elderly people and pregnant women.
