This post is all about the best ways to store shoes
1. Under bed storage
If you’re looking for a place to store your shoes that’s out of the way and hidden, then under the bed storage is perfect especially during the season you are not wearing them. An under bed shoe storage box will keep the pairs together as they have separate compartments. They can also be folded down when they are not in use, which is great if you don’t have a lot of storage space. I have been looking for one that closes with a zipper, that way your shoes will stay dust free.
2. Shoe rack
Want a place to store your shoes that can fit into a small space? A foldable rack is a ideal solution. They are easy to assemble and can be placed almost anywhere. Seriously these storage racks are such a cute idea and a great way to maximise space.

One of my favourite ways to store shoes in an entryway is with a shoe storage bench. They look super cute and are so practical. You can hide all your shoes away when they are not being worn and use the padded seat to comfortably take your shoes off. I honestly use my shoe storage bench every day and couldn’t be without it.

Maximise vertical space with wall mounted shoe storage. If you live in a small apartment and don’t have a ton of space, hanging your shoes is a ideal space saving idea. Using a wall mounted cabinet not only keeps them organised but you can hide them away to keep your home meat and tidy.
5. over the door storage
As I mentioned before, vertical storage can be a game changer. Another vertical shoe storage solution is using a door hanger. I love how affordable and versatile these are. This one can store up to 36 pairs of shoes and is really sturdy. Each shoe compartment is made from mesh to prevent the shoes falling through.
6. Shoe Carousel
This idea is genius. Think lazy Suzan but for shoes. Storing your shoes on a rotating carousel saves you space and keeps them all in one place with easy access. There are two options when it comes to shoe carousels, you could have one installed in your wardrobe or this one is free standing. It holds up to 28 pairs and can be rotated 360 degrees.

Shoe cabinets look modern and sleek in your home. You can put all your shoes away so you don’t have them lying around cluttering your home. This cabinet is narrow and has pull out compartments to keep everything concealed while saving you space. It also features a drawer for extra storage.

Ladder shelving isn’t just for books, these can be used for storing shoes if you’re wanting to maximise vertical spacing. Display you favourite pairs on open shelves to make them a feature. These look really impressive for displaying beautiful heels, trainers or vintage shoes. One advantage to storing your shoes this way is you have easy access to grab the pair you want to wear.
9. shoe rack organiser
If you’re short on space these shoe rack organisers work really well. They are sturdy and stackable allowing you to store up to 10 pairs. If your wanting to store boots this might not be the best way, there are better options for this. Easy to keep clean by simply wiping them down. This compact solution is ideal for the bottom of your wardrobe to keep your shoes neat and tidy.

If you have storage space under your stairs or in your wardrobe, stackable shoe storage boxes might be a great option. Ideal for storing softer shoes like sandals and flip flops. If your looking to store harder shoes like trainers or boots this might not be the option for you as you can’t store as many pairs. These storage boxes and be stacked These also feature a zip top making it so easy to see which shoes are in each box.
11. Stackable shoe boxes
Save precious space with these stackable shoe boxes, they are a great way to store shoes and trainers. These stackable boxes are made from clear plastic, to be able to see what’s in each box. They are also breathable due to the mesh walls, stopping your shoes to prevent moisture from building up and your shoes from getting mould and mildew. I love that they are easy to keep clean because we all know how dirty shoes can get.
