Having a varied collection of shoes is essential to making the most out of all of your outfits. A great pair of high heels can bring any old dress to the next level. It is critical to your fashion persona to have the right pair of shoes to match each and every ensemble.

But beyond the world of fashion, shoes are essential for a wide variety of very specific purposes. You can have a great collection of designer pumps, but they aren’t going to do you much good when you want to go for a weekend backpacking trip.

We all need shoes not just for our nights on the town, but for our hikes through our nation’s backcountry. We need running shoes so we can stay in shape without damaging our joints. We need hiking boots so we can maneuver through all sorts of terrain without slipping or twisting an ankle. We need sandals for the beach. We need boots for the snow. We need a comfy, stinky old pair of tennis shoes for running out to the store.

And of course we need all of those fashionable shoes to make us look our very best. But having all of these shoes necessitates a place to store them. Storage and organization solutions are essential to keeping your collection accessible and on display. You can put these shoe organizers in your bedroom, or even right in front of your front door. No matter where you put them, they will do wonders for keeping your collection organized.

Multi-pair Shoe Rack/Tower

The multi-pair shoe rack and tower is a wonderfully simplistic design that comes in different shapes and sizes. This means you can customize your purchase to the size of your collection. You can find this shoe rack in sizes that can fit 20, 30, or even 50 pairs of shoes.

The steel and polymer construction of this shoe tower allows for you to store shoes that are inside or outside of the box. No matter which size rack you get, the shelves are all about 10 inches deep.

This multi-pair shoe rack/tower is a wonderful solution for storing shoe collections of all different sizes. It’s great for your bedroom, family room, or garage.

Overdoor Shoe Rack

Sometimes our wardrobe gets so large and extensive that we can barely find the room to put everything. Before long we find our closet bursting at the seams. We can hardly fit anything else in there! The same thing then goes with our dressers. Every drawer is so full we couldn’t possibly pack in even another sock!

When your bedroom starts to overflow it is time to start taking advantage of all those weird little spaces that you couldn’t fit anything in before. The overdoor shoe rack is a perfect way to help utilize all the forgotten corners of your bedroom.

With the overdoor shoe rack you can have handy shoe storage by just hooking it over the back of your bedroom door. Already have a mirror or a poster on the back of your door? Well worry not because you can mount this shoe rack directly onto your wall.

The shelves of this shoe rack are made from polymer on the sides and uses steel rods to support your shoes. You can find this shoe rack in versions that will hold either 24 or 36 different pairs of shoes. As with the multi-pair shoe rack/tower, the overdoor shoe rack can hold both shoes and shoes in their boxes. It fits doors with widths of up to 1 ½ inches and is made right here in the USA.

Underbed Shoe Organizer

While putting all the shoes that we love and use all the time on display makes sense, there are also those shoes that we rarely take out. These might include your most expensive pair of designer heels or they might just be an old pair of sneakers that you hold on to for sentimental reasons.

And while you may not want to take up space in your main shoe organizer with these underused shoes, you also don’t want to damage them by just throwing them in a corner of your closet. The under-bed shoe organizer is a great solution for putting a part of your collection in a safe and secure place.

The Under-bed Shoe Organizer has a clear vinyl cover that allows you to easily check which shoes you have stored in there. This is a great solution to store a dozen pairs of back-up shoes that you don’t pull out very often. Your shoes will stay free of bugs, moisture, and dust so that they are in perfect condition when you pull them out.

Treat your collection of shoes right by storing them in the proper organizer. Use these shoe organizer solutions and your footwear will always be right there when you need it.
