Once wet, shoes take forever to dry.
After a shower, a walk in the woods or a jog in the rain, it is not uncommon for the inside of the shoes to be damp.
Tumble drying them is not recommended. It damages them.
Luckily, there's a simple trick to drying wet shoes.
The trick to drying them quickly is to use newspaper rolled up into a ball. It's super efficient. Watch :
1. Remove the sole of your shoes.
2. Make balls of newspaper.
3. Put them directly inside each shoe. Newsprint is an exceptional absorbent.
4. Put your shoes on the window in the open air or near a heater.
There you go, your shoes will dry quickly and you will be able to put them back on quickly :-)
Now you know how to dry shoes quickly.
Simple, practical and effective, isn't it?
And what's more, it's a very economical thing, even downright free .
Not to mention that it allows you to recycle old newspapers.
This grandma's trick works really well, because the newspaper absorbs the moisture that soaks into your shoes.
They therefore dry much faster.
Know that newspaper also has the virtue of eliminating bad odors left by humidity.
It even eliminates fresh fish odors, so the smells in your shoes can't help it.
You don't even need to put your sneakers in the dryer... or in the microwave;-)
This trick works just as effectively with all types of shoes:
- wet sports shoes, sneakers and Converse
- ski boots or snowboard boots,
- leather shoes such as ankle boots or boots,
- canvas shoes,
- rubber boots,
- and even the pumps.
