I'm delighted that it worked out for you. I used to work in a candy factory and my boots would get soaking wet every day. It is really uncomfortable to walk in wet boots all day. I didn't know how to dry the boots. I tried using the vacuum cleaner at home and it worked.
Thanks, I tried this with a pair of waders that leaked using a small "shop vac " I had in the garage for cleaning the truck. Not quite as fast as a heated boot drier but it did the job. For the rare times my waders get a leak, it's nice to have a handy alternative that doesn't require another machine to store when not in use.
Great tip. I used this technique on a pair of neoprene wetsuit boots and 30 minutes later, they were "dry as a bone". And a lot less stinky. The wet/dry vacuum isnt used much - will probably get more use now. Thanks again, brilliant.
I don't know why but watching you spray your boots with a hose for 10 seconds was the funniest thing I've seen all week, It's a mixture of the silence and the camera panning.
When I wash mine, I twist a couple of dry towels up and cram one in each boot, then a few hours later pull the wet towels out, then tie the boots sitting up on the heel in front of a heater and a fan blowing above it, a few feet away to avoid a fire. Takes longer though. Was looking for a better, faster process. I've considered maybe a dehumidifier with a timer switch to turn on and off to allow the water to cure it's way out so the leather doesn't crack up. Hair dryer sounds like a good idea, but they build up heat really quickly, not good to run them more than 10 minutes. This is cool, but too loud for my situation.
an adjustable speed yard blower would likely also work. at least mine does. & yes, it's important to dry them quickly before mold sets in. i've also used a countertop convection oven.
I got went fishing last night and ended up in the water after crawfish. Figured they would mostly dry out over night. Nope, they smell bad and I had to go to work without them. I hope they aren’t molded when I get home.
My son just started a job, that requires him to wear rubber boots. Poor thing was walking in wet boots and socks the next day. I googled ways to dry them and found your video. Thank you so much for posting this easy fix! He'll be going to work with dry feet tomorrow! And that makes a caring mother, very happy! 😊 Thank you again!
I'm glad the technique worked for you. I used to work in a factory and my feet got wet every day. It's no fun walking around in wet boots all day. I tried the vacuum cleaner technique when I got home and it worked. I was so happy. All the best!
Thanks for sharing. I hope future viewers read the comments. You've got some great ideas. This sounds like a significant improvement to the drying process.
Man I was like I need to dry these asap. Just basic wear wetnesses but had no boot dryer. I stuck them in the dryer on a rack but nope just warmed up the outside. Came here and bam 35 minutes both dry as a bone. Used Milwaukee portable vacuum. Ha takes one battery to get them dry.
Worked!! Slicker then snot. This dried out inside of knee high rubber boots in 30 min each. Standard Boot dryer can take 4-6 hrs to dry pair of boots.

Yes, this is loud process. It's also a little bit stinky. I hope you find the right solution. Thanks for the comment.

A boot dryer that consumes 500 watts and sounds like an 200 decibel dentist drill. Now why didn't I think of that?
I tried this on my flip flops. It works!
Great idea, thanks for sharing. I'm trying it out on my boots right now.
At least one will be dry over night

I would be delighted to see your video. I bet it would get a lot of views. It's nice to see some innovative problem solving.

Yery nice hack! Definitely gonna try, thanks!
Thank you.
I never treated them. Maybe they were treated at the factory before I bought them. They are really old safety rated electrician work boots.
Digital Friend what kind of boots are those they look bad ass
Are they composite toed?
Were these water proofed or conditioned prior to this?
Thanks a lot! 👍😁
What brand of boots are these?

This technique should work.
Did it worked?
@@twintyara6330bro ask after a year and sun 😂
So the wife wanted you to clean the smell and u decided to make a video lol
Put some socks filled with rice in the microwave till there hot then throw them in the shop vac -how to speed up the process
Thanks.
Bad idea cause I did this and it blew my boot out in the road and a dog grabbed it
I hope you got your boot back from the dog without it being damaged.
Is this mid western accent?
Will this work on girls boots ?
They are just fucking boots
+Chinda xayasanh lmfao
Will this work if the boots have got thick furry lining that can't be taken out
good job
Or a dryer
If you hate your boots Sure a dryer works. Shrink cracks don’t matter. I think I’ll pass on my $200 Thorogoods. I’m going this guy’s route
Well I dont fucking have one of these and I work tomorrow
Don't get your boot wet next time
Mansplaining: turning a 30 second explanation into a 5 minute and 30 second explanation.
