Clunk...clunk...clunk. The sound of shoes in the dryer is annoying. Plus the high heat from your dryer will put a quick end to a good pair of hiking boots or trail runners. The slow process of air drying is equally annoying.

Stuffitts ShoeSaver, a Marietta, Georgia based company, touts a product that eliminates shoe moisture and odor. Stuffitts are advertised for their ability to eliminate moisture from shoes 8-times faster than air-drying.

Stuffitts has a simple design with an eastern red cedar-filled inner core. The inner core is covered by a non-cotton fabric which has a foam toecap. Each pair of Stuffitts is connected by a 3-foot strap. Stuffitts recommended replacing the inner core every 6 months.

The simplicity of the design and the positive results are impressive. The Stuffitts were tested on a pair of trail running shoes that soaked in water for over 5 minutes and were thoroughly drenched. After inserting the Stuffitts and waiting a few hours, the trail runners were just slightly moist. Typically, this may take a full day or longer to dry by using air drying.

The only negative with the Stuffitts is the toe cap. For the trail runners used for testing, the toe cap was not able to be squeezed into the shoe's toe box.

The Stuffitts ShoeSaver impressed with its drying ability. It has the versatility to be used for ski boots to fishing waders. Stuffitts retail for $24.95 per pair and replacement inserts are priced at $9.95.
