Is there a more uncomfortable feeling than walking around in wet shoes? If you didn’t know, it’s been raining in New York City seemingly for the past two straight months, so this is starting to become a real problem. So long as this UV Shoe Dryer works as advertised, wet shoes may be a thing of the past.

The long tubes pump air that’s 104 degrees Fahrenheit around the inside of the shoes and the UV LEDs kill bacteria that have grown inside the festering disease fiesta. So your shoes don’t end up like a scene from Backdraft, there’s a switch to control overheating. There’s no need to worry about it sounding like an 18-wheeler because the dryer was developed using the same quiet technology used in PC ventilation systems.

Dry shoes cost about $72. Dry feet, however, are priceless.
