Abstract

A footrest useful for supporting a user's foot when tying shoelaces, comprises an elongated support having a longitudinal axis, and a first member and a second member perpendicularly connected to the elongated support wherein at least one of the first member and the second member is adapted to move relative to and about the elongated axis. The first member and the second member are substantially adjacent to one another in a folded position, and the first member and the second member are spread apart in a deployed position for forming an angle therebetween sufficient to ensure stability of the footrest when the user's foot is placed on the elongated support.
