Wader dryers?

[D. Hinton]

Has anything come down the pike that is better than a peet dryer or has anyone managed to fabricate one at home?

I had the heat only peet dryer for about a month and realized it was a waste of space and money. I bought the one with air circulation and bought 2 sets of extensions. What a huge improvement. It also has 4 drying ports so I can do my waders on one side and gloves on the other

What works for me is a ~20" floor fan that tilts upright. I turn waders inside out and hang over the turned-up fan. 3 speed fans let you adjust airflow. Will dry hanging coats and clothes on either side of hanging waders at the same time. Has worked drying waders and coats for YEARS.

Peet dryer owner for over 20 years. Works perfect for my application. What is the issue? I have the non fan version.

Just needed a new one. Mine inadvertently was left out in the weather and since I’m buying something new wanted to see if there was anything better

I love my Peet dryer. I have also used a floor fan faced up into my waders to dry them out as well.

Dinosaur checking in here. Couple wads of newspaper, pull out after an hour and repeat. Pull out newspaper before bed. Hang waders upside down near furnace, all dry by next morning.

I wear Gortex waders with neoprene stocking feet, and if hung in a heated space inside out they dry in a couple of hours. Never thought about needing a drier. OTOH, I just bought two pairs of rubber boots--ankle high Muck boots and knee high Lacrosse--and they won't dry for days. May need to look at a dryer.

Who has newspaper laying around anymore?

I’ve had a Peet boot dryer for well over 20 years as well. Has Never failed to dry waders overnight.

It can be a challenge. I try not to go swimming as much as I used to.

I'm having a hard time spotting it in such an uncluttered shop area. Mine is three feet deep in stuff everywhere.

I agree have two pair drying all the time toasty in the morning when I grab them

Peet dryer user as well. They work, what more does one need.

I have always used the Peet dryer with great success.

I too use the no fan peet dryer in my basement with the dehumidifier running most of the year. Always dries overnight. Two extensions on them so they hang right. It's the double set, so I can do two pairs at once
