About Thomas Fetterman
We Offer a Full Line of Products Made in the USA Crutch Tips Forearm Crutches Canes Grips Why Thomas Made His First Tips
My doctor said I had worn and inflamed shoulder joints due to the constant impact associated with crutch use. He said I should slow down and take aspirin! Instead, I invented a patented crutch tip with a built-in shock absorbing gel system. Slowly but surely my shoulder pain disappeared. I am happy to say that now; almost 20 years later…my shoulders are still pain free! And I fall far less often.
Created by Thomas Fetterman
In 1988 I invented & patented a new crutch tip technology with built-in shock absorption. Tornado and Performance gel filled tips are hand assembled in a 12 step process using the best quality natural rubber with only 10 % clay mixed-in, versus the 40-60% clay mixture in other major brands.

Crutch Tip Technology
Thomas Fetterman has been using crutches since he contracted polio in 1953. Thomas set out to build a better solution. He created and patented a shock-absorbing crutch tip that absorbs 80% of negative ground impact force and lasts 3-5 times longer than ordinary tips. And that was just the start. Thirty years later, the company offers a full line of tips, forearm crutches, canes, and grips. All products are made in the USA using top quality components. With over 1,000,000 products sold, customers agree that we manufacture the most technically advanced, handsome, and durable products available.
