I don’t think this product is the same as those holsters that have been around for ever, because I heard it zipping closed. If someone could look at the picture and describe for all of us, that would help.
The important thing here, as I see it, is that one of our own has turned lemons into lemonade (or dog poop into cash) and is developing a successful business while providing jobs for other blind people in the bargain.
Sounds like a win-win to me!

Hi All,
This actually sounds like something that the Georgia affiliate was selling at convention a couple of years ago. I believe they called them the “cane caddy’s.” Without seeing this, I’m not sure whether it is the same thing or not, but I bought one of these from Georgia at the time. I actually can’t quite recall whether it was the Georgia affiliate or the Atlanta chapter, but it was one of the two. It was like a little leather bag that you can slip your folding cane into.
