Overview
Forearm crutches for longer term use

They are aluminum forearm crutches with a cuff above the wrist, sold as a pair, with a standard or anatomical grip.

Built for real life

What stands out

●
Forearm cuff
A cuff above the wrist steadies the crutch, so nothing presses under the arm and the crutch stays with you if you let go of the grip.
●
Standard or anatomical grip
The anatomical grip is shaped to the palm to spread the pressure. The standard grip is a straight handle.
●
Adult and Youth sizes
The Adult models fit about 4'11" to 6'2" and the Youth models about 4'5" to 5'5".
●
Sold as a pair
The price is for two crutches.
The Hieline Take

Forearm crutches are what people move to when they will be on crutches for a long time. The weight goes through the hands and the cuff steadies the forearm, so there is no pressure in the armpit, and you can let go of a grip to open a door without dropping the crutch. They take more arm strength and balance than underarm crutches, so they suit a regular user better than someone a week out from a sprain. The anatomical grip spreads pressure across the palm, which helps with sore hands. Note that the anatomical models are rated to 250 lbs., not 300 lbs.

Straight talk

Is it right for you?

A good fit if you

  • You will use crutches for months or longer.
  • Underarm crutches hurt your armpits.
  • You want to free a hand without dropping the crutch.

Look elsewhere if you

  • You need crutches for a week or two after an injury. Underarm crutches are easier to learn.
  • You cannot put weight through your hands and wrists. Look at a knee scooter or a wheelchair.
  • You weigh more than 300 lbs.
