NEW LINE: DryGuy Boot, shoe & Glove Dryers/Warmers

To stay warm your boots and gloves need to be dry. Wet feet are not just a result of wet weather. People of all ages and activity levels perspire or sweat, especially from the hands and feet. Between them, hands and feet collectively produce two cups of sweat per day. That means that even people living in dry climates have to worry about wet shoes.

While wet shoes might seem like little more than an inconvenience, they affect more than just your comfort. If your shoes don't get a chance to dry, you're likely to encounter some unwelcome house guests.

Fungus takes root in wet shoes or gloves. Fungus can damage a perfectly good foot or finger. Athlete's Foot can develop into a chronic problem requiring expensive treatment.

Bacteria grows in warm moist environments and causes infections. More than 60,000 diabetics per year lose their toes to infections, and it's estimated that 75% of these amputations could be avoided with proper foot care.

Odor accompanies sweat, fungus, and bacteria.

Cold hands and feet are a common problem. When your body senses a loss of heat it compensates by slowing circulation to the extremities. This problem is compounded in wet conditions since dry footwear and gloves are 25 times warmer than moist garments.
