Purchasing pieces of furniture is a complex process. This is exacerbated in situations where different items are sold in parts of the city that are distant from each other. Therefore, stores that stock functionally necessary products will be in demand. An example is IKEA. The same problem applies to shoe racks for the hallway , which at IKEA are presented in a variety of shapes and colors. Parus wardrobe systems are in no way inferior in quality. Presented in a wide range of shoe racks, made in modern fashion trends from IKEA, they will last for many years. And the things themselves stored using them will increase their usual service life due to proper care.

Purchase, both from catalogs and when visiting a store, where furniture is presented according to styles and you can choose a complete list of necessary goods for furnishing the interior of both the hallway and the apartment.

Distinctive features of shoe racks from IKEA

Review of existing models of shoe racks and shoe racks, additional accessories
Today, the manufacturer Ikea offers to purchase such models of shoe racks or shoe racks as Trones, Hemnes, Bissa, Stell, Bundis. Separately, it is worth mentioning the shelves for shoes, these include models Bundis, Portis and Greig. Open shelves are ideal for autumn shoes that come into contact with water and which need to be dried after washing at home.
Closed shoe racks are recommended for outdoor furniture. In general, designers do not adhere to strict requirements for what a shoe shoe should be. Sometimes people use an ordinary cabinet with drawers as this furniture.
If you need to temporarily hide your shoes, use special plastic containers, baskets, trays or metal shoe organizers. By the way, storing shoes in boxes was invented not so long ago. However, provided that there are several pairs in the box, you should definitely use special hard inserts that hold the shape of the shoe. You can also place a special tray under the shelf, on which dust from shoes will settle; as a result, the floor under the structure will remain clean: you will only need to wash the tray occasionally and put it back in place.
Experts advise not to store shoes dirty: this deteriorates the quality of the coating and shortens the service life of your beautiful and favorite shoes!
Useful accessories that you can buy from Ikea to use for your shoes:
- spoon (horn) for shoes;
- shoe spacers that allow you to maintain the shape of expensive shoes or boots (their second name - form holder - speaks for itself).
By the way, a narrow bench with a simple, not soft seat will be a good substitute for a banquette. A budget option for shoes: a bookcase on which you can also comfortably place all your pairs of boots. Take every opportunity to decorate your home, starting from the front door to the smallest details in the apartment space.
Shoe rack options
Here are the characteristics that should be considered when purchasing:
- The location can be vertical or horizontal in direction. In a vertically located design, the emphasis of the shoe is on the toe part, and not on the sole. It takes up little space, so it is suitable for narrow and small hallways. Horizontal placement does not deform the shoes, since they are installed on the sole.
- Shoe cabinets can be closed or remain open. Open shelving is well ventilated and prevents shoes from suffocating and ventilates the odor accumulated during wearing. But it does not protect against dust and exposes your belongings to everyone. Closed. not ventilated, but protected from dust. The choice is yours - either specially ventilate or frequently carry out wet cleaning, which will have to be done regularly in any case.
- Standard single or complex options. An example would be a design that allows you to sit on it to put on your shoes, which saves space for installing additional chairs or stools. A comprehensive option is the functional combination of a shoe rack with other elements - a mirror, a place for clothes or other functional shelves or sections.

Reviews about Ikea shoe racks
Maria:
“Ikea Stell shoe shoe: this is my indispensable item in the hallway. Our corridor is small and due to the lack of space we always had to choose something smaller. It doesn't always look beautiful. But we found a solution and it was, of course, furniture from Ikea, that was the only hope we had. Yes, many pairs of shoes won’t fit, but we are for minimalism and beauty!”
Nina:
“In my house I have a shoebox with 4 compartments, but we all have enough space. I think for families where there are children or a bunch of relatives, it would be better to take a shelf rather than a closed shoe rack. Ours fits a maximum of 8 pairs. And the furniture is good. Nice to look at, easy to care for!”

Many people appreciated this popular version of a low, shapeless chair filled with tiny balls. It's so soft to sit in that you don't want to get up.

By the way, this particular model is simply adored by cats, who like not only to sleep on the pouf, but also to sharpen their claws on it. Unfortunately, this reduces the lifespan of the product.

Why do you need a shoe rack in the hallway?
Minimal attention may be paid to storing shoes and clothes, and this is not true for them. A quality item will last longer if you store and care for it properly. For preservation, special containers are needed, even for temporary placement.
Storing shoes on the floor in the hallway is not only not aesthetically pleasing, but also not functional. It gathers dust, wrinkles and can get lost.
Shoe racks and hangers in the IKEA hallway
The presence of a shoe rack in the house, a special place for placement, will not only improve the interior of the hallway, but will allow your shoes to last a long time without losing their appearance.
If necessary, you can separate temporary and off-season storage areas. Use other cabinets or mezzanines to store off-season pairs. To do this, you can purchase special containers for packing shoes, costing from 500 rubles.
