While drying shoes in the dryer can cause some damage over time, it's a lot quicker than air-drying them.
-
Remove lint from the dryer's lint filter. When the lint filter is free of lint, air circulation is improved, allowing better drying.
-
Stuff medium-sized towels into each of your tennis shoes. This helps absorb some of the moisture when the shoes are in the dryer and helps keep the shape of the shoes.
-
Set the temperature of the dryer to "Low." Using a high temperature setting can damage your shoes by loosening glue and overheating the rubber.
-
Add a few clean white towels to the dryer with your tennis shoes. This will speed up the drying time and reduce the amount of noise the shoes make while drying.
-
Turn on the dryer. Drying time will vary depending on your dryer. Be careful not to over-dry your shoes.
