a) a base having proximate and distal ends;

b) an elongated caddy having U-shape cross-section, a first end of said caddy being connected to said base at a location close to said distal end and a second end of said caddy over which a sock can be draped being displaceable with respect to said base;

c) a connecting pivot for pivotally connecting said first end of the elongated U-shaped caddy with said base at a location close to the base distal end, allowing rotation of said elongated caddy about said pivot; and

d) counter weight means by which said base is coupled to a fixed or heavy article, such as a furniture article,

wherein said caddy is upwardly pivotable from an initial substantially horizontal disposition, upon insertion of a foot within a sock draped over the second end of said caddy, until a disposition at which said sock is released from said caddy after being fully donned on said foot and

wherein said connecting means comprise a ribbon which is affixed to the base close to its proximate end.
