Seeland Electric Boot Dryer

Seeland's electric boot dryer is a quick, gentle way to get wet footwear and gloves properly dry between outings, rather than leaving them steaming on a radiator overnight. Fitted with a UK three-pin plug, it works with standard boots and rubber wellingtons alike, warming gradually to protect leather and fabric rather than baking it. Plugged in, the unit begins heating immediately and reaches its maximum temperature of around 56°C after roughly ten minutes; the heating elements simply sit inside the boot until the job is done, and shouldn't be run for longer than eight hours at a stretch. Beyond drying, it helps clear the damp, musty smell that builds up in boots after a day on the hill or in the field, caused by trapped moisture, sweat and bacteria. It's compact and portable enough to live in a boot room or travel with you, runs completely silently, and is a straightforward way to add a few extra seasons of life to boots that would otherwise stay damp and start to break down. A sensible, low-cost addition to any stalking or shooting kit bag.
