10 Shelf Men's Hanging Shoe Organizer

Shoe storage is always an issue at my house; my wife and I are always tripping over loose pairs of shoes that are lying about in our hallway.  The problem is that we have so many shoes for every different use imaginable; it is more convenient to have them sitting on the floor.  Who would want to dig through the mess that is their closet in order to find their ice fishing spikes?  I know I certainly do not.
My wife was getting fed up with all these shoes littering our otherwise spotless living room area.  It was quickly becoming a point of contention until I found the solution on StacksandStacks.com.  I was able to find the perfect shoe organizer for my many different styles of footwear. “What is this magical contraption?” you may ask, and indeed it is the 10 shelf men’s hanging shoe organizer.
By placing this shoe shelf in my closet, I instantly had quick and easy access to ten of my most used pairs of shoes. The openings face the front of the closet, so I am able to pick out the appropriate pair at a moment’s notice.  I also love the fact that this organizer is so slim, allowing me to have plenty of room to hang my jackets and other clothes.  I never have to worry about rips or tears with this hanging shoe rack because it is made from extremely durable cotton canvas.
This hanging shoe organizer is large enough to accommodate my big, manly work boots so it obviously is also perfect for storing my wife’s dainty high heels and night time slippers. The metal hangers make it really easy to hang from the center pole in the closet.  Now my entryway is nice and clear and I never trip over my shoes anymore!

Get your tiny shoes in order with this Aquarium Shoe Rack!

It’s been a long time since we’ve featured a kids shoe rack, so I was so happy when I stumbled upon this one!  It straps right over the closet rod, using up virtually no closet space, but offering ample shoe storage options.  The cotton polyester blend fabric stands up to medium and heavy use, perfect for little ones.  Strap it over the closet rod and organize away!  The pockets are perfect for storing shoes, but can also be used for other items.  Even little kids and toddlers can use this to keep their bedroom or playroom organized, with separate pockets for toys, clothes and shoes.  The pattern is absolutely adorable, a vibrant aquarium scene complete with fishies.  Over the closet rod shoe racks are a great choice for homes with limited storage.  They make use of the vertical space in the closet, which is usually overlooked by people in need of more closet space.  This one is perfect for kids, the colors and themes will inspire them to put their shoes or toys away.  Another feature I like about these, as a general rule, in the kids room, is that it allows you to have storage space up top where little hands can not reach.  Keep markers and paints (nothing dangerous like medicines, though) in the upper pockets to keep tiny hands from reaching!  The velcro is very strong and wide, perfect for bearing the weight of multiple pairs of shoes, toys and much more!  An easy way to keep things organized in this bag is to make tags for each shelf so that you and the kids know what goes where - a great closet organization tip!  When the kids grow out of their sea-creature phase, they can still use this in the corner of the closet to maintain their style.  And, best of all, the price is right!

Find More Shoe Storage Space in the Closet!

If you can find just five inches of hanging space (that’s right, just 5 inches), then you have great potential for getting a little extra shoe storage in your closet!  An over the rod shoe rack is, in some ways, even easier to use than a freestanding shoe rack.  This is because many of the shoes are at eye level or just below, making it a cinch to find the pair that you are looking for. 

Another benefit of these shoe organizers is that, as long as you don’t completely overload them, you won’t have shoes falling on the floor – a common problem with bar style shoe racks.  They come in all different sizes, the smallest ones being 5 inches wide, and the larger ones at 12 inches. 

The 5 and 6 inch Hanging Shoe Racks have a great space efficient design, because they make use of vertical space, which is often wasted in most closets.  When you hang your clothes on a closet rod six feet off the ground and don’t put anything underneath it; that is a no-no in the organizing world.  An over the closet rod shoe bag solves this problem by really only taking a few inches of space that you were likely to be wasting anyway. 

If you choose one of the wider racks that are up to 12 inches wide, you can greatly increase your storage potential for shoes and other things too.  These wider over the rod shelves can hold accessories, including scarves, belts, and small purses, making them an all in one closet organizer.  Stacks & Stacks has a great selection, with everything from basic canvas organizers to cedar lined models.  If you want something with a little more pizzazz, the striped shoe organizers are very cute, and come in blue or pink tones.
