Shoe storage

How to choose your shoe cabinet?

Where to place your shoe cabinet?

A shoe cabinet is a versatile piece of furniture that can be placed in several rooms of the house.

• Hallway: the most classic place to put a shoe cabinet, practical for grabbing your shoes in the morning when leaving and for easily storing them in the evening when you return.
• Dressing room: the ideal location for matching your shoes with your outfit.
• Bedroom: if you don’t have a dressing room and have a small hallway.
• Garage: convenient if you don’t want shoes cluttering your living areas.

Types of shoe cabinets

There are different types of shoe cabinets. Some storage units come with a wardrobe or hooks for storing bags and coats.

There are also shoe cabinets with a bench to sit on when putting on your shoes. The bench usually hides additional storage space for either other pairs of shoes, scarves, shawls, or other accessories.

A shoe cabinet can feature closed storage, which allows you to hide the clutter, making it more aesthetically pleasing. However, it can also be made of open shelves, making it easier to see and grab the shoes you own.

Shoe cabinet dimensions

The size of the shoe cabinet should be chosen based on two criterias: the size of the room where you plan to place it and the number and type of shoes you want to store. Keep in mind that a pair of boots will take up more space than a pair of trainers. Shoe cabinets are often narrow enough to fit easily in a hallway or entryway.

Choosing the style of your shoe cabinet

Scandinavian, cane, industrial — the shoe cabinet comes in endless styles! The key is to create harmony with the other furniture in your home.
