If you have a new girlfriend and you plan a ski trip or just want to go trekking in the mountains, here's a gadget that will save you from the embarrassment of stinky feet (or stinkfoot, as Zappa put it).

No matter if you have an odor problem or not, walking in the snow will get your feet wet and eventually stinky. It's no mystery, it's just a fact of life,

but this won't save you from the embarrassment.

Luckily, there's a solution to this problem and its name is the Boot and Glove Dryer. The basic principle behind this simple, yet extremely useful product, is to dry the wet garments so that you don't make a fool of yourself.

As you can see in the image, the product consists of a built-in fan in the base and two let's say poles on which you place the source of the discomfort. But drying might not be enough to scare those wretched smells away, so you also have the possibility to fill the top pan with baking soda to absorb them.

The Boot and Glove Dryer is not limited to boots as you can use it to dry and deodorize things like gloves and mittens or other items that can be inserted on those poles.

What's even better is that it's cordless and it doesn't require a power socket. You only need four D-type batteries and you're set to go. In conclusion, if you're tired of drying your wet garments on the stove or on other improvised heat sources, then the $20 priced Boot and Glove Dryer is what you need.
