How To Organize Your Shoes

I finally organized my shoe collection!  I posted these organizers about six months ago when I first moved into my new house but never got around to really talking about them.  We took this weekend to clean out the garage and it felt so good to get this done.

Since I don’t have room in my house to store shoes, I needed something that was well organized to put in my garage.  I looked everywhere and nothing really would save space and protect my shoes at the same time.  I LOVE shoes and take very good care of them so I had to have something to was covered but also easily accessible.

I came across these stackable large drop-front shoe boxes and was so pumped.  My first thought was OMG I will need a million of these.  It was way more costly than I was hoping to spend however the investment was worth it to me for my sanity.

  Let’s back track a little bit, my shoe situation in the garage was a complete disaster.  Most of them were still in bins from my my TWO moves I did last year and the garage floor was covered in shoes thrown all over the place.  There was no organization and it drove me completely crazy.  I linked to some other shoe storage options below in case these aren’t what you are looking for.

I bit the bullet and decided I needed these in my life.  It was exactly what I needed and I love the fact that they are clear and each pair of shoes would be protected from dust.  Each package comes with six containers.  I forget how many I bought and I’m too lazy to count but I had to buy a lot of them.  Unfortunately these are not all my shoes.  Yes I have a problem but I’m totally ok with it. LOL

I paid full price for them but now they are on sale so here’s your chance!  Here are some F.A.Q’s:

ARE THEY STURDY?

I haven’t had any issues with them falling over.  Not sure how they will hold up in an earthquake (knock on wood) but I’ve had them stacked pretty high and they have stayed put for over 6 months.  They are slightly wobbly if you push them but just don’t push them.  Each shoe box sits nicely on top of each other.

CAN YOU EASILY ACCESS EACH PAIR OF SHOES?

YES!  The drop-front opening allows you to get to the pair you want without having to unstack or remove any boxes.

ARE YOUR SHOES PROTECTED FROM DUST?

Absolutely!  Each pair of shoes gets their own box and it’s fully protected from dust.  This is especially a huge advantage if you plan on storing them in the garage.

ARE THERE HOLES FOR VENTILATION?

YES!  Each box comes with ventilation holes so your shoes can breath.

WHAT IS THE MATERIAL MADE OF?

The shoe boxes are made from polypropylene and polystyrene.

WHAT SIZE SHOE CAN EACH BOX HOLD?

Each box can hold up to a men’s size 13.  I also noticed that the height can hold up all of my high heels.  The tallest I have is 4″.

The only drawback I could come up with is the drop-front flap isn’t the best quality.  They sometimes don’t stay on all the time when you’re trying to assemble and stack but once they are on, I haven’t had any issues.  Overall, I’m super happy with the results!  It didn’t take much effort to assemble and organize my shoes.  I love being able to see every pair and know that they are being protected from dust.  Love and would recommend!  You can buy them HERE.
