So early today, at about 3 AM, a group of my friends decided to do some sneaking around a boy scout camp across the lake. We walked along the shore and snuck around that cabins while they were all sleeping. It was quite the adrennelin rush.

Anyways, my shoes became completely water logged. Anyone know how to dry soaked shoes?

Also, tell your stories of sneaking around in the cover of darkness.

Well, for the shoes, pick up a guy and put him in front of the dryer door with your shoes in the dryer and set the dryer for a little while, and as for the stories, mine are all illegal so.....

It aint about black or white

If they are not steel toe, or massive, you can just take the laces out, toss them in your clothes dryer for a while.

That, or, also with the laces out, hang them outside for a about a day.

 

If you think you have problems with waterlogged shoes, try wearing some made out of canvas....

Hey, nice marmot!

I prefer wet shoes with no socks, this way there's no bad effects of wearing no socks, and it's more comfortable.

There is a blow drier shaped like an upsidedown pair of feet, that you can order out of hunting magazines. However, it's easy to dry shoes overnight without the proper equipment. Take newspaper, ball it up, and stuff it in there. You may need to change out the paper a couple times, but by moring your shoes will be dry. Trust me, I used to do field surveying.

If they are wet, your feet slide on the sides and stuff, not rub, less friction, and I usually only do it when I go to the park to play basketball...

^^^^ The nice smooth cloth insides of basketball shoes let you get away with that. But in leather shoes or boots you would blister like crazy.

newspaper like mbro said or put them at the bottom of your refrigerator.most if not all fridges have a fan at the bottom nd it should suck all the moisture out of your shoes over night.also stick a small sample of deodorant in the shoe so they dont stink from the water.also take out the insoles

Newspaper ink rubs off easily and the inside of his shoes might be white. Won't the ink fade it to black?

Tell me, what are these 'shoes of leather' and 'boots' you speak of? I have hard of Cleats for most sports, and I've heard of the 'Basketball shoe'.... I'm currently looking for a silk lined Basketball Shoe...

Take the bottom soles outs and put them outside.  It'll do the trick.

I am not interested in your soaked shoes, I want to read about your soaked panties.
