Standard vs. Specialty Frame
The complete Pediatric Belt Cane Set includes two frames and one belt.
The standard cane frame (left) provides a two-step preview of the path ahead. The standard cane frame is intended to be worn most of the time.
The specialty frame (right) is 10% shorter and the base is shaped to prevent catching on furniture. This cane frame is intended to be worn inside small rooms without any exposed drop offs.
