The best shoe dryer under £25

Well it's a bet wet outside today isn't it. This has me thinking of the one gadget I could not live without. I mountain bike in all conditions and this include heavy rain. I live near fort william and to say we get rain would be an understatement. So if I didn't bike in the rain I wouldn't bike very often. I want to share with you the one gadget that has changed my after biking game. I don't know about you but I have a lot of biking shoes. A lot ok too many but I have my favorite and I alway want to wear them and therein lies my problem. They get very wet on rainy days as do my feet. Yes I wear sealskinz so my feet are not wet by my shoes certainly are. 


I was searching the internet for solution when I had a eureka moment. A shoe dryer. I decided I didn't want to spend a fortune on this as well I spend enough money on my favorite pastime so I chose Upstartech Boots Dryer Electric Foot Warmer From amazon. This cost me £16.99 as it was on sale at the time it's now £21.99. I have just checked my order date and it was my birthday oh well it must have been a birthday gift from me to me. 


Here is the description 

Unique Functions of the shoe dryer:
The boot dryer is the only one of its kind to include a 120-minute timer, with the option to keep it
running as long as 2 hours and have it shut off automatically,without any damage to your shoes and boots

Ultra Effective:
Silently dries and deodorizes footwear, Less electricity use, Keeping your footwear comfortable and dry. Antimicrobial and deodorant dehumidification: Adopting the innovative technology, helps remove odors from perspiration and bacteria, dries, dehumidifies,and deodorizes

I was a bit apprehensive for this to arrive. It arrived quickly and I put it to the test almost immediately. Let's face it we get the rain up here all year round. This is how it arrives and how you store it which is nice and compact. 

To use you just fold out the little arms and pop your shoes on top of them to dry them. It is super easy to use you just decided the program from the control panel. To dry I just used the preset button which is set to 20 minute intervals. You can easily change the amount of time you would like your shoes on for. 

Here's my timings that is use this is to get my fivetens completely dry. I mean completely like they were never wet in the first place.

Completely soaking less shoe more canoe 2/3 x 20 min
Wet 2 x 20 min 
Damp 1 x 20 min. 


To deodorize all you need to do is press the ozone button. I have only used this a couple of times. Mostly on my husbands shoes. 

I have used this shoe dryer since july and I can honestly say this is the best purchase I have made under £25. If you are looking to make a practical gift this is the one I would give anyone. I could not recommend this shoe dryer enough. It has by far changed the game for me in drying my shoes. No of course this shore dryer can be used for any shoes from your ski boots to your normal trainers and even gloves. Yes I have even dried my knee pads on these. This dryer really has changed my kit drying game and I am so happy I have found it. 

Please excuse the bad photos I have been waiting for my new phone for so long and I wanted to get this out incase you are looking for a good shoe dryer. 


I hope you enjoyed this shoe dryer review and I hope this can help you keep your feet warm and cosy instead of kinda dame and cold.
