Ref. 495
Adult forearm crutch, anatomic grip, full cuff (PAIR)
Epoxy-coated adult forearm crutches with 4" (10 cm.) diameter full cuff and ergonomically correct, latex-free, medium-soft rubber grips (one each for right and left hand). Their anatomic design spreads the weight over a considerably larger surface area thereby greatly reducing strain on both hands and wrists.
Our model 495 forearm crutches are height adjustable from floor to grip and from grip to cuff with a single Clip adjustment (much easier than a push-button). See the Product Sizing tab below the main image for exact measurements.
Now featuring handgrip reflectors for increased safety.

The crutches are 5 star all the way. Sturdy, incredibly comfortable, and actually good looking. Additionally, the folks at Walk Easy deserve a 10 star rating, if that were possible. Last Friday, I had changed my order from one crutch to a pair. This was late in the afternoon (4:05 PM) and yet they still managed to update the order AND get them shipped out the door by UPS. I received them on Monday. They are in Florida and I am in Virginia. NEVER seen such good service!
I was born with a weaker left side, and my left leg drags with it gets tired. I’ve used numerous walking sticks and canes for much of my adult life. And managed pretty well. But in 2002 I took a bad fall to my low back and couldn’t walk without crutches. After about 6 months of using regular underarm crutches I knew I needed something better. So I got a pair of forearm crutches from my local medical supply store. Unfortunately though I have really short arm’s and those crutches would pinch the inside of my elbows. I even built up the handles but it was still really uncomfortable. Finally last year I started searching online and found These “Walk Easy” crutches on Amazon and decided to give them a try. I am so thankful that I did! ❤️ Finally a pair of crutches that don’t pinch your forearm and elbow. Plus they look great, are lightweight and high quality. “Sort of like a fancy well made German sports car”. Being that they are made in Germany ???????? PS. I forgot to mention that the ergonomic handles are prefect for those suffering from carpal tunnel syndrome and other hand disorders.
I have one leg. And these are great and I get around every where with these. I Owen two pairs already. And I’m going to buy my 3rd pair soon
These are great! The anatomical hand grips keep my fingers from going numb - which happens with regular hand grips. They are sturdy and quiet and I love them! Plus the great colors. I will be using these for the foreseeable future.
The crutches are comfortable, light-weight, and easy to use. They improve my mobility on days when I need them for arthritis of the hip.
