well take the liners and insoles out of your boots, lay the insoles flat, and put the liners upside down over a heating vent. that should dry them overnight.

the smell though, thats your own damn problem.

It shouldn't so long as you dry them after EVERY use. My boots get taken apart about every 3rd ski day, but total imersion is different. Also, be as gentile as possible putting them back in, because wrestling with the liners will pack them out, and that can make a comfortably close fit downright loose. Not cool.

buy a boot dryer. they work well, make sure you act quickly or else your insoles will smell like mildew forever

I got a boot dryer thing, works really well and only cost like 35$.

but one day this season I was in the lodge getting my boots on and these younger boys kept walking by and being dumb trying to show off and stuff and I'm not sure if this was an intentional plea for my attention of just stupidity but one of the kids somethow loses balance and his hot chocolate falls directly into my boot. i sat there for probably an hour trying to dry the inside with paper napkins. it was terrible and the guy I was with just sat there and pointed and laughed at me

Nope he laughed and said sorry and then went to his table and laughed with the guy I was there with at me for like an hour.

if you stuff wads of newspaper in there, it dries them pretty quickly
