Pockets for use on a crutch consisting of a front panel and a back panel secured to one another along three sides, leaving an open end. Alternatively, the pocket has at least one side panel positioned between the front and back panels. The back panel preferably has a length greater than the length of the front panel and the width of the side panel to form a closure flap. The pocket securing portion is affixed to one end of the back panel proximate the open end and secured to the crutch at the horizontal top rail by eye hooks. A retaining strap proximate the closed end secures the pocket to the side rails. In another embodiment for use on the lower portion of the crutch, the back panel has a length at least twice the length of the front panel and is folded upon itself to form a U-shape. A channel is secured to the crook of the U-shape to form a channel to receive a retaining bolt secured to the side rails. A secondary layer is affixed to a second leg of said U-shape to form a second pocket.
