Drying drysuit boots
Any hints how to dry the boots attached to a drysuit?

It might be the sweat or a minor leak, but my boots are always dump or wet, not water and I'm stuggling to dry it. I dry the suit inside-out, but even after a week the neoprane in the boots is still wet and smelly.

Newspaper stuffed into the boots will dry them a bit more , also a cheap fix is cat litter stuffed into tights and put into the boots,unused seems to work better .

Another vote for Dampire - although I have a DUI suit with Rock Boots now, so I can just turn the legs completely inside out.

I use the Damipre things in my ski boots too.

All of the above! But if you find out they are wet just before the dive, get 2 plastic bags and use them over your socks as a work around until you can leave them over night.

I'll second the DZs. Slip them inside the boots, dry the outside, then pull the suit inside out as best you can keeping the DZs in the boots.....lovely and dry in a couple of days ready for its next outing

Do they sell two of these in each pack? Or do I need to order it twice?
