boot jack

Footwear removal tool

A boot jack is a device for removing boots without using your hands.

It consists of a flat board with a U-shaped notch at one end—you step on the board, wedge your boot heel into the notch, and pull your foot free.

Essential equipment in eras when tall riding boots were everyday footwear: He used the boot jack by the back door.
