When you think of a space-saving shoe cabinet, you tend to see above all the so-called slim models, with flap compartments. In reality there are many solutions, more or less elegant, but in any case always extremely functional.

In this article we will take a look at a series of models taken both from the web and in physical stores which, in our view, turn out to be the best solution in terms of quality and price. Buying a cheap shoe rack is fine of course, but it is always better to check the reliability in terms of quality and resistance first.

Slim Shoe Rack

This, as mentioned before, is the solution that we all imagine when it comes to the slim shoe cabinet.

Usually these products have a depth of 20 cm up, and are very useful for storing all your shoes even in the tightest and narrowest corners of the house, maximizing the available space.

Baroni space-saving shoe cabinet

There are slim models of all sizes and here we will bring two examples. The first is the small space-saving shoe cabinet by Baroni Home in melamine wood.

Also suitable for storing in the hall, it can contain up to 12 pairs of shoes arranged in 2 flap doors. The measures of this product are 24x63x81 cm.

The slim shoe cabinet by Bakaji

For families with several components, on the other hand, BAKAJI offers a space-saving shoe cabinet in medium-density fibreboard wood with 5 glossy white lacquered doors, always with flap doors, whose dimensions are 59x22x169.5 cm.

Both of these solutions are very useful for flat shoes but they will not be able to contain boots or amphibians.

Space-saving suspended shoe cabinet

This solution will certainly be less elegant than the previous slim shoe cabinet but certainly cheaper and it is also the one that will absolutely make the most of the space.

It is a shoe rack to be placed essentially behind the doors with special hooks, possibly in environments that are not too visible such as inside bathrooms or closets.

Suspended shoe rack by Homyfort

It is unlikely that this type of shoe rack will cost more than 20 euros such as the Homyfort fabric product, which has 24 compartments, also suitable for a tall wardrobe.

It may contain flat shoes, such as ballet flats, sandals or slippers.
However, also in this case, the problem of high shoes arises, which unfortunately cannot be crammed into this type of shoe cabinet.

BAKAJI, when it comes to this model, however, also offers a shoe rack with a rigid and modular structure with 12 shelves, therefore, 4 per module. Definitely large in relation to the space it occupies, it has a height of 183 cm, suitable for practically any type of door.

This shoe organizer has a really good capacity but above all it is modular, giving the possibility to mount 1, 2 or 3 elements; each of them will contain up to 12 pairs of shoes.

In order to overcome the problem of taller shoes, it will be necessary to opt for a shoe rack that is slightly more bulky in depth but that will nonetheless help a lot in keeping your home in order.

Songmics shoe rack also suitable for boots

The SONGMICS 10-level shoe rack, assembled in the right configuration, can hold even the most bulky footwear. This rigid structure shoe rack is very easy to assemble and can hold up to 27 pairs of shoes (less in the case of boots having to remove the shelves of course).

The measures of 58x28x160 cm certainly make it more bulky than the others but it is also the only solution if you have to put away huge pairs of boots.

This model also has practical pockets on the side to insert objects for shoe maintenance. You can also choose whether to keep it open to showcase your shoe collection or close it for greater protection from dust.

Continuing this journey on all types of space-saving shoe cabinets available on the market, here is another very convenient solution from SONGMICS.
This shoe rack can be assembled in different shapes, so that it can be inserted in many rooms of the house, offering many different solutions.

Songmics modular space-saving shoe cabinet

This shoe cabinet is composed of high quality ABS connectors, a stable metal frame and waterproof and easy to clean polypropylene panels.
The measurements of each compartment are 40 x 30 x 17 cm with a capacity of up to 10 kg.

It is undeniable that, although this shoe rack is practical and economical, it is not very beautiful to look at. It will also be possible to remove some dividers to obtain larger compartments for storing boots or other types of objects.

The Joiscope modular space-saving shoe cabinet

Another solution of this kind is the space-saving modular shoe cabinet by JOISCOPE. This is a large shoe organizer with ample space for storing different types of footwear. This model also offers larger compartments for big pair of shoes.


It can hold about 16 - 48 pairs of adult shoes depending on the number of cubes. This model is made of 100% ecological resin plastic and not being transparent like the previous shoe cabinet, it is also slightly more elegant.

Space-saving shoe rack

This type of solution is undoubtedly the simplest but, in our view, suitable only for those who want their shoes on sight, to put them on display as in a real collection.
In fact, the rack shoe rack will not have external walls.

Keplin metal shoe rack

The solutions in this specific case can be more or less elegant.
For example, the KEPLIN company offers a 3-tier metal shoe rack that is very stable and resistant but at the same time decidedly raw and essential.

Assembly is very quick without the use of tools and its measures are 90x29.5x53 cm.

Grandma Shark shoe cabinet in bamboo wood

An undoubtedly more elegant solution is the one proposed by GRANDMA SHARK in bamboo wood. This shoe cabinet is definitely more beautiful to look at and is also comfortable because it has a practical seat.

It is very durable and assembly is simple, with tools and instructions included in the package.

Space-saving shoe cabinet: where to buy them

All the products described above can be purchased on Amazon with the Prime service. However, IKEA and Leroy Merlin are two large furniture chains that also offer a lot of different choices.

Some solutions of Ikea space-saving shoe cabinets

Some interesting models of Ikea shoe rack are those in the photo above, from left to right: Hemnnes 4 compartments, Stall, Bissa and also Hemnes with 2 compartments plus a drawer for objects. As usual, the look of the Swedish company's furniture is very simple and essential.

Finally, the options offered by Leroy Merlin are also interesting with the possibility of choosing between models of slim shoe cabinets or with simple shelves, but really very resistant.

Both of these options will offer decidedly low prices and decent quality, always with a view to buying a cheap but still reliable shoe rack over time.
