I've got soaking wet tennis shoes - stepped out of my car last night into 10 inches of water. My problem is that I need to use these shoes today. Can I toss them into a regular clothes dryer without melting them? Shrinking them?
Can I dry tennis shoes by putting them into a clothes dryer?
Yep you can only not competely a material shoe (a small amount of material won't matter). Firstly stuff them with dry socks, this will stop them from shrinking, now really stuff them tight, then put them into a pillow case and tie it at the top, this makes sure they don't get damaged from being thrown around the dryer. Turn it on lowest heat setting, if you don't have a heat setting just turn it off every 10-15 mins and let them cool for 5.
By the way if they are a completely material shoe forget it, they'll shrink and loose thier shape, just stuff them wiht newspaper and place on a radiator or in hot press and hope they dry quickly...!
You should be good to go!

Reply:Turn your dyer on AIR. That way you won't shrink them or melt them.
Reply:Just let them air dry. The dryer will shrink them and damage the insoles....
Reply:Yes but they will be tight when you frist put them on.
Reply:You can put them in a clothes dryer it will dry to a certain extent but then you might have to dry it out for sometime in the sun, no sun then try a Hair Dryer.
