As a shoe lover (or addict), keeping all your pairs organized can be a hassle. You want to make sure your footwear is clean and out of the way, but not so much so that you neglect certain pairs out of your rotation. Your storage option should fit all of your budget, space, and aesthetic — making it all that harder to find the ideal arrangement.
