Abstract
An appliance to enable a person to install on or remove a boot from his foot without requiring use of his hands. The device is in the form of a pair of spaced vertical standards joined to a common base with brackets mounted on the internal opposing faces of the standards for holding of a loose boot by means of engagement to holes in the sides of the boot or cord loops extending from the sides of the boot. A treadle is hinged to a projection extending rearwards of the base and pivotally mounted to the rear of a U-shaped boot jack that is pivotally mounted between the standards so that a boot, to be removed from a foot, may be clamped by the book jack with the second foot of the user pressed on the treadle to pivot the boot jack against the withdrawal force of the first foot being freed of the clamped boots.
