How to store and organise your shoes

Work shoes in the hallway and stray sliders under the bed? It doesn’t have to stay like this. Sort footwear into ‘in use’ and ‘not right now’ to keep what you wear daily accessible. This guide is packed with clever hallway shoe storage ideas to help you stay in control.

Four rows of SKUBB shoe boxes on a floor, each filled with a pair of shoes. Some of the boxes are in front of the rows.

Find unused spaces that fit your footwear

One way to keep high boots and everyday shoes tidy is to make use of unused spaces. A BAGGMUCK tray turns the area under a shoe cabinet or shelf into a spot for tall boots. Or use a rail with clip hangers on an empty wall for a grab-and-go boot station. Your footwear will thank you.

Open or closed storage? It’s your choice!

Do you want to see your shoes or not? It’s the big question when organising everyday footwear. Choose what works for your home. Open storage like a stackable MACKAPÄR rack keeps more shoes in less space and easy to access. Closed storage gives a calm, dust-free look, just remember what’s where.

Hide shoes in plain sight

If you’re someone who loves shoes and likes to have lots of different pairs on the go at the same time, keep them organised and off the floor with a fixed or pull-out shoe shelf in the wardrobe. Your desired shoes are always there when you need them, while the rest of the time they’re dust-free and hidden away.

Show off your favourite shoes

You don’t have to hide your shoes away. Make your favourites part of the decoration in playful and creative ways. It could mean putting them on top of other shoe boxes, or on a shelf. Or for a more subtle effect try our SKUBB boxes with windows. You’ll always get a view of your shoes, but they will stay protected from dust. It injects personality and style into your room – and you’ll never forget where they are!

Think long-term with boxes

Putting boots away until next winter or storing shoes you don’t wear very often? Boxes are your best friend! SKUBB shoe boxes hold a pair each and have a window so you can keep track of what’s inside. For multiple pairs of shoes – like a child’s outgrown footwear ready for a younger sibling – larger, transparent SAMLA boxes come with a lid for easy stacking. To prevent mould, make sure shoes are dry and clean before putting them away, and don’t forget shoe trees to keep soft leather and delicate designs in shape.

Your small space champions

Not much room for your shoes? No problem! Expand the storage possibilities of your space with small shoe organisers. Stack GREJIG shoe racks to create a slim, low-key shoe stand with layers of storage possibilities. Another small-space option is the SKOSTALL shoe organiser – each one holds a pair of shoes at three different heights. They all love to make shoes tidy in the teeniest of spaces – give them a chance to show you what they can do!

Give your shoe storage a twist

When your hallway or nook doesn’t quite work for racks and organisers, try an alternative approach with these shoe storage ideas. It’s time for hangers and hooks, baskets, storage benches to take centre stage in the hallway. As well as jackets and bags, a TJUSIG hanger or HÖGAFFEL hook on the wall can hold casual shoes and trainers too. Let each shoe have its own hook, so they can hang out until you need them again.
