Shoe Magic- Shoe Cabinet
I have very seldom praised products on this platform which I haven’t tested out myself. The first, and perhaps only time I did do such a thing, it turned out quite well; the 360 Electrical Powercurve Mobile Surge Protector, when I did test it after the fact, was all I had hoped it would be and more.
So I haven’t actually tried today’s topic product. True. But, I have a great track record for blind recommendations. You’re in luck! On the redeeming side, I have actually seen the product with my own two eyes, conveniently styled with shoes by the merchandisers and everything. So that’s something.
The shoe cabinet. Here’s the lowdown: incredibly slim design. Maximum shoe storage.
When you approach this guy from the side, or even face it dead-on, it looks about as thick as a popsicle stick. You’re all, “How on earth are loads of shoes situated inside that thing?!” And, “No way.” And, “Prove it.”
So then you open it up and– WHA-BAM!
It’s like a really awesome organizing magic trick.
The secret is in the slant, you see. The shoes sit on the flat surface of the shelf, usually held in by a metal rod. The shelf tilts downwards when you close it. As a result, you end up having your shoes stowed vertically, while being given horizontal access to them. Does that make sense? I’m struggling a bit to describe the mechanics, clearly. I trust your imagination can fill in the gaps.
If you’re interested in obtaining the cabinet, check out: 4D Concepts Deluxe Triple Shoe Cabinet // 3-Drawer Shoe Cabinet //Shoe Cabinet with Storage Drawer in Black Finish
*UPDATE: FOR ALL THOSE WONDERING ABOUT THE SOURCE OF THE SECOND PHOTO, PLEASE READ THIS.

I’ve always been intrigued by these – but wondered, doesn’t “shoe crud” from normal wear just pile up in the bottom of the crevice? Perhaps an occasional vacuuming would do the trick, but it was a concern….
Can you source the 2nd photo? Its not the Ikea or Container store options, but seems to hold 3 tiers in each drawer. If I’m gonna get this, thats probably the one to try!

Can’t find the source for that one, but as far as I can see, this seems to be the same model: http://www.stacksandstacks.com/shoe-cabinet-triple-holds-36-pairs Check it out. Also, good point about the shoe crud.. I suppose regular cleanings would be in order. But aren’t they for all things.. 😉

Hi Woody,
Please refer to the response I gave the last reader with the same question. 🙂-

Although similar, the one in the photo seems to be better quality, with a top drawer for polishes, etc and has nice shaker detail on the sides. – the search continues

Love it! However, the photos are not all of the same cabinet. There are actually 3 different ones shown. The two smaller ones ARE from Ikea, but the larger one (that looks like it contains about a hundred shoes) is not–at least I couldn’t find it anywhere on their website.

I realize it’s really only 27 pairs, but just looks like a hundred. eitther way, it sure does hold a whole lot of shoes!

Are you sure that second one is from IKEA? The Hemnes Shoe Cabinet only has two drawers and the one pictured has three drawers. Is it a hack or a mod?

I really want to organize my shoes in one of these and then maybe limit my collection to 27 pairs of shoes. Maybe. 🙂

LOL, the one on Lugbuy.com is $910.xx shipped to the U.S. — I don’t think so!!! The outside of the Ikea ones is prettier. If anyone comes across the one with 3 drawers that looks like the Ikea one and at a reasonable price, please post here….
