6 Amazon shoe organizers that shoppers absolutely love
Why you can trust Real Homes
Before you purchase, check Amazon sales to compare prices and snag a discount. There's also another step you should take before you buy: Downsize your collection.
Corinne Morahan of Grid + Glam isn't afraid to call it. "Yes, you have too many shoes," she says. Even though it may be hard to part ways, the best way to control and cut down on clutter is to be selective of what you own. “Before you buy a shoe organizer, go through and donate some shoes," says Morahan. "Then, buy a shoe organizer that will fit all of the shoes you’re keeping, and commit to never having more shoes than will fit in that organizer”.
You best get decluttering (and then counting your pairs) before you decide.
Wooden
Price: Was $29.17, now $27.31
Made from: Bamboo
Size: H10.25" x W27.5" x D15.75"
If you’re a firm believer that storage can be stylish, here’s a shoe rack that proves it. Crafted from beautiful bamboo, this two-tier shelf is meant to be on display — just like your shoe collection. The slatted surface keeps the shelf from feeling bulky and the naturally moisture-resistant material is easy to clean. More than 3,000 reviewers approve, with shoppers complimenting the ease of assembly.
Entryway
Price: $22.99
Made from: Plastic
Size: H16.8" x W19" x D10"
Whether you need a shelf-life organizer that easily tucks into a closet or you've got kicks to put on display, this top-rated, stackable rack is the answer. The pieces snap into place for easy installation (and also disassembly when you're ready to upgrade to a bigger apartment), plus you have total control over how tall or short to make it. If you're someone who likes to redo your layout and move things around often, then definitely consider this. One shopper says, "These racks made it totally possible to organize all the shoes, giving me a full view of each pair and very easy access."
#1 bestseller
Price: Was $54.99, now $39.99
Made from: Plastic
Size: H5.5" x W9" x D11"
Unless you've been off the grid, you know that a pro organizer's best friend is a clear box. And for many good reasons: they have a clean aesthetic, they stack, and you can always see exactly what's inside. So if you covet a Home Edit-esque shoe organization system, spring for this set of 12 pristine boxes. With ventilation holes in the back to prevent odors and an easy access front panel, they're designed especially with shoes in mind. It's the #1 bestseller in boot and shoe boxes on Amazon with over 9,000 sold in the past month.
6-tier
Price: Was $52.99, now $39.99
Made from: Plastic
Size: H31.5" x W12.6" x D36.22"
More than 6,000 reviews have spoken: This lightweight, yet sturdy shoe organizer is a must when closet space is hard to come by — or just isn't well laid out. The cubes can be used alone to bring extra shelving to a closet or stacked together to form their own rack. The removable panels offer flexibility, so you can have two rows inside or just one for taller shoes. A nifty hole in the door serves as both an opening handle and a circulation window.
Over-the-door
Price: Was $39.99, now $29.99
Made from: Metal, resin, and mesh
Size: H64" x W22"
When you live in an apartment, every inch of storage space counts, which is why you should never ignore the area behind doors. But most over-the-door shoe organizers feel and look so flimsy. Skip those for a far sturdier version that’s still as space-efficient. This durable metal rack has mesh shelves that hold a whopping 36 pairs of shoes to truly make the most of the otherwise unused area. One shopper says, "The shelves are deep enough to hold just about any kind of shoe, and the construction is sturdy enough that I feel pretty confident that it will last."
Under-bed
Price: Was $45, now $39.87
Made from: Polyester
Size: H13.25" x W34.25" x D11.38"
Does even the smallest shoe rack or organizer box not cut it in your tiny apartment? Enter this genius space saver. We love a good fabric bin organizer and this one takes things to the next level by squeezing 16 pairs into one box. The plastic dividers can be adjusted for different heights, but we see this working best for smaller shoes such as sneakers, sandals, and flats. It comes in three stylish colors (gray, beige, and blue), plus two additional sizes that hold 12 or 24 pairs of shoes. With over 1,000 ratings and 3.6 stars, shoppers love the size and design of this organizer.
It's so easy to let shoes pile up, especially for apartment dwellers who just don't have a ton of storage space. With so many other things to prioritize, shoes tend to get pushed to the back of our minds, as important as they are to making or breaking an outfit. But it's time to change that. And I'm here to show you that shoe organization is totally possible even in tiny rentals. From over-the-door hangers to stackable boxes, these top-rated Amazon organizers for your shoes will get the job done. Finally, no more tripping over another pair of shoes.
