DryGuy
DryGuy makes electric dryers for boots, shoes, gloves and garments, part of the Implus footcare group that also owns Sof Sole and Yaktrax. The line splits neatly. Forced air models such as the Force Dry DX push gently warmed air at about 105 F and clear two pairs in roughly one to two hours, with removable extension tubes for boots up to 16 inches tall. Simpler convection units have no moving parts, run silent and dry overnight, closer to eight hours. The Travel Dry DX weighs 1.25 pounds and runs off a car socket or a wall outlet.
Sensible for ski and hockey families, hunters, tradespeople in wet boots and anyone drying custom liners, since the low heat will not shrink or warp them. Retail presence is wide, from REI to Amazon. Warranty is one year, housings are plastic, and cheaper models have no timer, so overnight drying means leaving the unit plugged in.
