Cane Information & Sizing
Incredible Canes can cut almost any cane to your preference. Just add the size you'd like to the comment field below the shipping information during checkout or give us a call anytime at 817-374-2445 to have this taken care of!
Canes and walking sticks are not intended to be used for
full weight support. Canes and walking sticks are intended to be used for
balance and light support. The above does not replace your Doctors recommendation.
Please call us if you have any questions. Approximate shaft sizes are given for
each cane we offer to guide you in choosing your cane.
The suggestions below are for guidelines only. Please adjust
size for your comfort.
It takes two people to size a cane.
Stand with your arms down by your side. Put on the shoes you
normally wear. Have a second person measure the distance from the wrist joint
down to the floor. This distance should be the total length of your cane top to
bottom.
If you have a cane that is the correct size, please measure
from top of cane to bottom of cane tip.
NO RETURNS ON CUT OR ALTERED CANES. If you have your cane
cut or you cut it, we cannot accept the return.
Be sure of the size before ordering
your cane.
To remove ferrule: Grasp the shaft above the ferrule/rubber
tip with one hand and the ferrule with the other hand and gently twist the
ferrule off. Cut shaft with a fine tooth hacksaw blade.
We will cut your cane for you at time of purchase at no
charge, however, If you receive your cane and want to have us cut it, you must
pay UPS
shipping charges both to us and back to you. We cannot take
back cut canes. Be sure of your measurements.
How To Hold Your Cane
Care For Your Cane:
If your cane gets damp or wet while you are walking, be sure
to wipe it off with a clean dry lint free cloth. To polish your wood cane, you
can use Lemon Oil or any wood polish that you would use on fine furniture. Lemon Oil can be found at most department
stores.
Wooden handles can be cleaned with a wood polish or lemon
oil. Silver, Brass or Pewter should be cleaned only with a Jewelry Polishing
Cloth available at most department stores. We recommend using a jewelry
polishing cloth and not a paste.
