Take a Seat

Wednesday, January 25th, 2012

Seat canes are such a great option for cane users and non cane users alike.  Available in many different styles to fit each users needs a seat cane provides stability while walking and a place to rest at the same time. 

The most common use of seat canes we hear from our customers are:

- Theme park or museum visits.

- Cruises for those long buffet lines and outdoor excursions.

- Traveling by air with layovers and long security lines(don’t forget you’ll need to check the spike base with your luggage!)

- Sightseeing.  You’ll never know when you’ll need a rest.

- Golf tournaments and other sporting events.

- Hunting trips, bird watching and camping.  Great for almost all outdoor activities!

- So much more! 

Our contour seat canes offer the added stability of three legs and your choice of black or 3 designer patterns including this American Songbird pattern. 

If you are looking for a more streamline, one shaft model you might look at our hammock style seat canes.  Available in adjustable and non-adjustable versions they seat canes offer a slimmer silhouette perfect for travel.

If you are on the go and don’t need the stability of a cane all the time you might be better suited for a fold-away seat cane.  These cane fold down into a small pack which can easily be stowed away.

Be sure to look at our full selection of seat canes for even more options.
