You can get your shoes wet at any time of the year, but only in winter and autumn can this have serious consequences.

Therefore, you need to arm yourself with life hacks that will help you dry your boots or shoes without any problems, and most importantly, without damaging your shoes.

We use a vacuum cleaner

If your vacuum cleaner has a blower option, you can put the hose in your boot and turn on the device to the desired power.

A similar operation can be performed using a hair dryer.

Silica gel

When buying shoes, there is always a packet of silica gel in the boots. The substance absorbs moisture, but more often than not it is thrown in the trash.

Instead of silica gel, you can pour rice into bags and put it in your shoes. But after that it will not be suitable for food.

Salt

The salt must first be heated in a dry frying pan, poured into socks or cloth bags, tied and placed inside.

As the salt cools, the heating must be repeated.

The same can be done with baking soda.

Paper

Another way is to stuff the shoes with paper (toilet paper, napkins, paper towels) and leave overnight. If possible, you need to replace the filler, and then the shoes will dry overnight.
