ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for drying shoes in a clothes dryer includes a frame member having a mounting surface for receiving and supporting a shoe. Fasteners, in the form of a pair of straps, may be adjusted to securely engage and hold the shoe on the mounting surface. Lips provided at each end of the mounting surface help prevent the shoe from slipping from the surface. A powerful magnet allows the secure attachment of the apparatus and shoe to the drum of an automatic dryer. Preferably the apparatus is mounted to the metal wall of the drum directly behind a paddle of the drum that serves to tumble clothes in the dryer as the drum rotates. The magnet is securely mounted to the frame member in a channel. The channel is formed of ferromagnetic material, and the sidewalls of the channel extend past the engaging face of the magnet. These sidewalls then act as dipoles to concentrate the attractive force of the magnet for more secure attachment of the apparatus to the dryer drum.
