ABSTRACT:
A foot-drying device includes a body including first and second vertical sides, and an open front face sloping upward away from a front edge thereof. The body is hollow, forming a chamber that extends from a bottom surface to a top surface thereof, and has a rear panel hingedly coupled thereto. A foot pad is seated over the open front face and is provided with apertures for draining water therethrough. A mechanism is included for diverting the water outwardly from the chamber as the water drips down through the apertures of the foot pad. A mechanism is included for introducing heated air into the chamber such that the heated air is quickly engaged with the user foot. The heated air is evenly discharged from the apertures such that the water on the user foot is completely expelled away therefrom. The air heating mechanism is disposed above the water diverting mechanism.
