Customers praised this reusable, no-power shoe dryer for effectively drying athletic footwear and eliminating odors. Reviews noted it "really helps dry them out after a wet day" and works well for cycling and running shoes. Some found drying time adequate for damp shoes but less effective on very wet boots, with one suggesting the extreme version for heavier moisture.
I play golf 5-6 times a week and rotate through 3 pairs of shoes, so keeping them dry between rounds is a real challenge, especially after wet mornings or rain delays. Started using DrySure a few months ago and it's made a real difference. No heat, no electricity, just toss it in and by the next round my shoes are completely dry. Simple product that solves a problem I didn't realize I could actually fix. Highly recommend for anyone who plays as often as I do.
Love these. Use them for my golf shoes - really helps dry them out after a wet day on the course
They do a good job of drying my wet shoes after a sweaty run, but it takes quite a bit of maintenance over the week to make sure that the desiccant inside doesn't absorb extra moisture. I've only had it for a few weeks, but overall I would recommend this product.
Brilliant really work well
Seem to be doing the job of drying out my cycling trainers
Brilliant bit of kit. My husband runs in all weather so trainers get wet by the next day they are dry after they have been in the shoe.

Does a very good job - no more smelly trainers
Brought as gifts. Unable to comment.
Like them. Re charge on the radiator. Do a good job of drying out waterlogged fell shoes. Just cant cope with that level of soggyness without a radiator re charge, but this is understandable.
My boyfriend loves these. He wishes they could be a bit longer to fit in the whole shoe but they really do help speed up the drying process up and in turn reduce and odour.
Fast delivery and as described. I wouldn't say they're awesome but they do an alright job. Better than nothing and completely reusable, perfect if you're commuting a lot because you can just leave them at work and they don't require any power.
I researched boot dryers for a few weeks before deciding on these. My hiking boots were expensive therefore I didn't want to risk using an electric dryer. I came back yesterday to find the Drysure dryer had arrived which was perfect timing as I'd just returned from hiking. My boots weren't wet from the outside just a bit damp from wearing them all day (I use merino wool socks). I cleaned the boots being careful not to wet the insides, removed the Sidas impact reducing insole and put in the boot dryer at about 18.00 hours. I checked the boots at 6.00 hours the next morning and the toes of the boots are still damp. The only reason I can think this happened is due to there being plastic on the end of the dryer which goes into the toe area. I have now removed the plastic case and inserted the boot dryer back into the boot which I am hoping will dry the boots completely. As the boots were damp as opposed to wet but still didn't dry after twelve hours I am not overly confident these dryers will dry wet boots successfully. I will update the review after further use.I have now had the opportunity to try these dryers and the ‘extreme’ version on wet boots. I found the ‘extreme’ version dried the wet boots overnight whereas this version the ‘shoe dryer’ left the boots damp. I have reached the conclusion that I bought the wrong dryer, I should have purchased the ‘extreme’ version for my boots. It does say shoe dryer in the description therefore I have updated my review.
