What do you call these things in English?

In dutch they're called a "Laarzenknecht" or losely translated a "Bootboy"

Boot Jack

Damn good idea to have one in your kit bag - I witnessed Old 'Un get a terrible cramp removing a boot on Saturday - I did exactly the same thing after Arnhem. Simple solution when mates don't want to pull your muddy boots off for you!

Here's an easy way to get them on at least...

Buy the cheapest freezer bags you can (Wilko are a good source) in a large size
Stick your feet in them like socks
Slide the boots on
Pull the bags out

You can get the tightest boot on in two secs, including my old mexican snakeskin cowbiy boots back in the day.
