Upholders of order: Shoe shelves for every hallway

The first thing a visitor to your house sees is the hallway. Shoe shelves are a great help so that you don’t frighten away your guests with mountains of shoes but provide a cheerful welcome into your home for your guests and yourself. Unlike shoe cabinets the shelves are open, so they are ideal for displaying your trinkets in rank and file.

The storage space miracle: Shoe shelves for narrow hallways

If you want to put your shoe shelves in a narrow passageway against the wall, it has to offer space in height and/or width and make itself narrow in depth:
You have space vertically: Set your sights high with so-called shoetrees. On the shoetrees there’s room between the “branches” for shoeboxes that you can arrange evenly and stack stylishly. Slender shoe-towers as well as shelves, that can be fixed to the front door are ideal for narrow hallways.
You have space horizontally: Shallow shoe shelves with connecting compartments extend your space sideways. Models that do double duty as benches are a practical idea. Also modules that interlock and so can be extended as desired are well suited to fill small areas with many shoes.

For the broader hallway: Shoe shelves for wide hallways

For those who have more space in the hallway, larger and wider shoe shelves give your shoes a proper home. Shoe shelves with fold-out or pull-out drawers for example offer plenty of storage space.

The right material

Wooden Shoe shelves: Bright models blend in unobtrusively in the hallway and do their job reliably. Dark wood looks more elegant and the color could be taken up by the mirror frame for example to create a harmonized picture.
Shoe shelves from molded plastic: Bright models fit in well in modern Retro-Style homes. Black or white shoe shelves act as a natural stage to display chic shoes.
Shoe shelves forged from metal: Robust metal models are long-lasting and resistant and fit in easily in every environment.

If you have lots of chic high heels, rectangular shelves are best for posing them prettily on the shelves. If you have many boots on the other hand, you need stowage space that has more height and less width. Sneakers and ballets flats more your regular shoe? No problem with stacking them.

Being organized makes life that much easier: Shoe shelves provide shoes with a super space.
