I got a bit over confident wading last night and now have some very wet waders. I've turned them inside out the best I can but the boots are still sopping wet. Any tips to dry them other than time in the sun. Bit worried they'll stay damp too long and go manky

Piece of drainpipe, when you get home, drill few holes around bottom 2". Steal the hairdryer. Put pipe down one leg and put hair drier in other oend of pipe.

That's how I use to dry mine and all the wellies. I now have a boot heater then I drop in as it has uv light built in that kills off the bacteria and helps stop the smells.

If they've innersoles first take them out.

Fill the boots with kitchen towel or newspaper if you've some rice that will help.

If the smell a bit after drying them out put a liberal amount of bicarbonate of soda inside each boot.
Are you sure?

This action cannot be undone.

Yes, continue
