What to Consider When You Buy Crutches
Choosing the right crutches or walking aid depends on your condition, comfort needs, and lifestyle. Here’s what to look out for:
-
Injury Type: Different crutches serve different purposes. For example, a sprained ankle may only require elbow crutches, while a broken femur might need underarm support.
-
User Mobility: Think about whether you need support for short walks indoors or extended outdoor use.
-
Comfort Features: Look for features like padded grips, underarm cushions, or ergonomic handles.
-
Weight Capacity: Make sure the crutches can support your body weight safely.
-
Durability & Material: Our crutches are made from high-quality materials, such as aluminium, for a combination of lightweight use and strength.
-
Safety Considerations: Non-slip tips, sturdy frames, and secure locking mechanisms are a must for preventing slips and falls.

FAQS
How do I choose the right crutch size?
Most of our crutches are height-adjustable. You should select one that allows your elbow to bend slightly (about 15–30 degrees) when holding the grip.
Can I use crutches on different surfaces (indoors/outdoors)?
Absolutely. Most crutches have non-slip rubber tips suitable for various surfaces, but for outdoor use, you may consider crutches with shock-absorbing features.
Are your crutches suitable for long-term use?
Yes, many of our models are designed for long-term use and comfort, with ergonomic handles and durable materials.
Do I need a doctor’s recommendation to buy crutches?
No prescription is needed to purchase crutches from us, but if you have specific medical needs, we recommend speaking with a healthcare professional.
Can I try different crutches before buying?
Yes! If you visit one of our physical locations, our team can help you find the most comfortable and suitable crutch for your needs.
