I have read of cutting up swimming pool noodles into lengths that fit each pair of boots, and I think I will try that in the future. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boot-tree-recommendation#post-809771 Sun, 06 Jan 2013 00:44:35 +0000 ClaraT 809771@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>On one pair of boots I use glass bottles (empty San Pellegrino bottles, tho' my sister has sand or something in the ones she uses). They are tough (never had one break) and can go in nose-first or bottom-first. On my other pair of boots (slimmer fit), I use packing paper that I rolled up into a fitted shape and stuff in there. I don't have odor problems with either solution. Good luck. It does seem like there would be a more elegant product for this purpose. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boot-tree-recommendation#post-809659 Sat, 05 Jan 2013 23:18:00 +0000 Kari 809659@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I use the plastic kind, Deb, and I haven't had any problems with odor at all. But if I'm wearing my boots out in the rain I also try to wipe the outside down before I store them in the closet.</p> <p>I've also used the methods that Diana used, or when I had a surplus of paper or plastic bags, I would stuff them into one long bag that I'd roll and tape into a boot-shaped tube. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boot-tree-recommendation#post-809614 Sat, 05 Jan 2013 22:41:06 +0000 Diana 809614@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I used rolled up magazines. If they get icky, they're easy to replace. Sometimes if a pair of boots comes with a long cardboard insert in the leg, I'll keep that and use it as a tree. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boot-tree-recommendation#post-809589 Sat, 05 Jan 2013 22:08:30 +0000 deb 809589@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I need to get some boot trees and all I can find are plastic. My concern is these will leave an odor if the boots are damp. What do you guys use? </p>
