Carrying Crutches

[Star Cruiser]

I live abroad and haven't seen that type of crutches before, but I already like them...

Not only they are collapsable, thus easy to carry on trips and also on the Spyder, but I also like the idea of the arm-pit 'loop' support, to ease the pressure on the wrists (mine are elbow-wrist type).

Are those available in any drugstore or in specialty stores? Price?

Thanks...!

It looks like bjt has found them at Walgreens. I purchased mine at Shoppers Drug Mart in Canada. They Retail for $79 Cdn (I found them on sale for $59). The handles are "ergonomically molded' and are very comfortable on the wrist. The bottom part is on springs, which take a little getting used to, but nice once you do. They fit nicely in the trunk of a car and also on the Spyder.
