7 shoe storage ideas for a tidy hallway

Shoes have a way of taking over the hallway without you even noticing. But not to worry, here are some ways to fight the hallway clutter of footwear – starting with putting boots on hangers and finishing on handy storage for your shoe care stuff.

The sleekest shoe storage

Shoe cabinets with all the shoes hidden away inside are hard to beat if it’s a calm, almost minimalistic look you’re after. A whole row of them is a nice relief, swallowing loads of shoes to give you a tidy hallway – without taking much floor space.

Three reasons for a shoe basket

A big basket is a great way to round up light sneakers, flipflops and children’s shoes. First of all, this handles the main cause of hallway clutter. Secondly, it leaves more space in your other shoe storage. And last but not least, it’s super convenient.

Boxed up until next time

Putting away seasonal shoes, or shoes you only wear occasionally, in shoe boxes helps lighten your hallway’s workload. These ones have mesh fronts that allow air to circulate and make it easy to see which pair you have inside.

Double your rack space

A shoe rack is a real hallway workhorse that’s good for keeping the shoes you use a lot easily available. Adding these nifty shoe organisers – basically bunkbeds for shoes – can almost double the storage space and help keep your shoes in better nick.

Making room for more

Hanging baskets and containers on hooks and rails are smart for making your walls work even harder to keep the floor free from stuff. Perfect for keeping extra laces, shoe trees, shoe brushes and other accessories handy.
