Shoe dryer

A shoe dryer or boot dryer is a machine used for drying shoes, and usually functions by blowing air on the inside of the shoes. The airflow causes the shoes to dry faster. The air can be heated for even faster drying, and these are the most common types.[1] Shoes dryers can be especially useful for people who often have wet shoes, such as families with small children or people who often hike outdoor in the nature. Many shoes dryers have a timer which shuts off the dryer after some time.[2] There are also shoe dryers which instead use a heated grate which the shoes are placed on top of, and which do not blow air.
