A shoehorn designed to disappear from existence

This shoehorn was designed to disappear from existence. Using a 3D laser and welding process for the pipe, the shoehorn and stand support look like a single upright pole. The unprecedented style of the shoehorn blends in with its surroundings without looking like a shoehorn at first glance, even at the entrance.

Compared to wooden or leather shoehorns, stainless steel shoehorns are thinner and sturdier, making them easier to insert into shoes, even those with narrow heels, without losing their shape. The long type can be used without bending down, reducing the burden on the lower back. The grip section is blasted to prevent fingerprints from showing up, and the beautiful mirror finish is applied toward the tip. Careful polishing prevents socks and stockings from getting caught. The support base is machined from a cast block of stainless steel and is designed to have a low center of gravity to prevent it from falling over.
