One of the biggest challenges as a homeowner is storage and organization. Wanting designated organizational space and actually having a home with that space are often two very different things; so clever space saving gadgets are a necessity for every home. Linen Store offers a wide variety of storage solutions and one of the greatest of these is their selection of unique shoe racks.

Small Closet Shoe Rack Solutions

No matter the size of your dwelling, closet overflow is often a problem; most people will chalk this up to lack of closet space. Closet space however, is rarely the problem, more likely the issue is a result of a lack of organization.

In order to make the most of the space you have, organization is key: a place for everything and everything in its place, a shoe rack can be your best friend in this situation. Depending on the size of your closet and the size of your shoe collection, we offer an assortment of shoe storage solutions.

For instance, say you have a tiny closet, an extensive wardrobe and a massive shoe collection, storing both your clothing and shoes in the same small space becomes relatively easy with a 36-pair over door shoe tower. This shoe rack from sunbeam affords a slim 12 tiered rack that hangs easily over any door, holding three pairs per tier and with plenty of room on top for those cute heels, your closet will be instantly more organized!

If space for 36 pairs is not quite enough for you try pairing it with a smaller 2-tier or 4-tier shoe rack in the bottom of your closet, these unique shoe racks combine metal rods with sleek plastic sides to create a polished looking and functional shoe storage solution that fits easily on the floor of your closet and will hold six to twelve pairs of shoes respectively.

Perhaps you feel that you closet is already too overwhelmed by your clothes to add any sort of shoe storage or you just want to show off your awesome shoe selection, an over the door rack can be hung on the back of any door. The slim construction allows for doors to open fully and the chic design not only keeps you organized but allows your lovely shoes to take center stage as decorative accents!

On the other hand, if you aren’t thrilled about having your shoes on display and cannot fit them in your closet, try using the 2-tier shoe tower to store your shoes neatly under your bed. Lift up your dustruffle and be greeted by delightfully organized shoes, you can even store your seasonal shoes in the 5-tier portable shoe closet, holding approximately 15-20 shoes and with a breathable fabric zippered cover this little miracle fits easily under the bed or stacks in the top of the closet!

Large Closet Shoe Rack Solutions

Even when you have the luxury of space, organizing can be challenging. Large closets often mean larger wardrobes so storage and organizing still take effort, but with the right tools your closet can be easy to manage.

Maybe you have a free wall in your closet; try a storage system like 50 pair shoe tower, just over five feet tall and three feet long, this ten tier storage system displays your shoes and keeps them organized and off the floor.

If you’d like a similar solution but don’t have quite that many shoes, or that much space, Sunbeam makes a nearly identical 30 pair shoe tower that is only two feet long, and is equally trendy. Sunbeam also makes comparable slimline towers, that hold 50 and 30 pairs of shoes respectively; these towers provide the same great shelving as the other larger storage solutions but offer a leaner more minimalist look, depending on what you are looking for in your closet aesthetic either of these unique storage racks could be just what you are need.

Supposing you are not endowed with a completely free wall in your closet, a slightly shorter shoe rack should provide the kind of storage you are looking for while allowing your clothes to hang overhead undisturbed. Lining up a few of the four or two tiered shoe towers end to end on your closet floor, will give you the storage you need without sacrificing any valuable hanging space.

If you want to keep your floors clear or just need more shoe storage consider the 20 pocket over the door shoe bag, this five tiered fabric over-the-door storage system conveniently holds up to 20 pairs of a variety of shoes.

Unique Shoe Racks For The Home

When you have a carpeted home or are concerned with keeping your floors clean and scuff free, keeping a shoe rack near the entrance of the home is a popular idea.

A small two tiered shoe tower sitting just behind a front door affords and simple solution to what could easily become a huge mess. Just by removing your shoes and placing them on the rack as you enter the home you can comfortably keep your floors fresh and you can always find your shoes should you need them in a hurry.

If you are only concerned with keeping shoes off of the carpets or out of a particular room, consider keeping one of the two or four tiered shoe towers just outside of the room or special area; not only is this functional but the shoe racks serve as a polite suggestion to guests that footwear should be left here and retrieved later.
