Why using a shoe dryer is important
After a day of skiing, hiking, trail running in the rain or snow, or simply after a day of intense activity or walking in wet conditions, your shoes (or boots) may remain wet: moisture, soot, internal condensation — all factors that affect comfort, promote odours, the proliferation of bacteria or mould, and even premature wear of the material.
Using a dedicated boot dryer transforms the experience: it ensures quick drying, maintains hygiene, extends the life of your footwear and guarantees that it will be ready for the next outing, dry and comfortable.
What Therm-ic boot dryers offer
-
Fast, even drying — Our devices circulate warm or lukewarm air into the boots via adjustable nozzles, eliminating moisture in a matter of hours, even in boots or high shoes.
-
Comfort & hygiene — reduction of odours and germs — By effectively drying the inside of shoes, these devices limit the growth of bacteria and mould responsible for unpleasant odours and potential discomfort or irritation.
-
Preservation and longevity of equipment — Prolonged moisture damages leather, glue and textiles: by using a boot dryer regularly, you limit wear and tear and prevent deformation, cracking or mould, which costs less in the long run.
- Versatile use — These boot dryers are suitable for ski boots, hiking boots, trainers, après-ski boots, urban boots and gloves — ideal for anyone who alternates between sports, outdoor activities and everyday use.
Who are these shoe dryers for?
- Skiers, hikers, outdoor enthusiasts — after activities in snow, rain, mud or long walks.
- Sports enthusiasts: wet shoes after training or running, rain, mud, perspiration.
- City dwellers or workers exposed to the weather: boots, city shoes or work shoes wet after travelling, snow, everyday use.
- Anyone looking to extend the life of their shoes, maintain hygiene and comfort, and dry them effectively between outings.
Expert advice & best practices
- Dry as soon as possible — Don't leave your shoes damp for several days: turn on the shoe dryer as soon as you get home.
- Allow air to circulate, avoid excessively hot air — Ensure that air circulates well and that the temperature remains moderate so as not to damage the materials or adhesives.
- Clean/dry the inside before drying — Remove wet insoles or socks, remove mud or debris.
- Use regularly, especially after each wet outing — To prevent mould, odours and premature wear.
- Combine suitable shoes + regular maintenance — The boot dryer is a complement, not a substitute for proper maintenance and use of shoes.
