#cane pride

I genuinely encourage anyone who comes across this post to put their decoration suggestion in the comments

Imagine you get to decorate a walking cane for a 20-something young adult

Stickers, reflectors, tape, pendants, trinkets – go nuts!

Does anyone have experience with using racket grip-tape on the handle of their walking cane?

I’m an ambulatory cane user and I want to spice up the aesthetic of my cane. I’m thinking colourful grip tape and reflective stickers.

An ergonomic-ish handle, I would call it

My initial cane is an offset one

I mainly got this new one because my offset-cane can only be folded once. I couldn’t find any offset canes in Germany which are foldable twice

I’m an ambulatory cane user and never know when my knees will be bad enough I need it, so I specifically got this new cane to easily keep it on/ in my everyday backpack

I struggled a good 40-50 minutes taking the original tip off the new cane and replacing it with the type of cane-tip I am used to from my beloved offset.

I worry my wrists might complain tomorrow because of the pulling/ gripping/ force needed to get the original tip off the new cane. I even had to heat it up using my hairdryer before it budged.

I might put reflective stickers into this cane as well, stars probably (the leopard stickers are the same type reflectors you can put in your bike’s spokes)

And I decided I will get some grip-tape (you know, tennis rackets) in a funky color :3
