Not just for shoes!
I purchased this rack for my entrance hall as a more stylish and compact 'dump zone' for my 2 kids' school bags and their bike and scooter helmets - ages 11 & 4. Bags on top and helmets on the bottom. Fits 2 backpacks upright , a dance bag ( small Crumpker messenger) and a library book bag at a neat squeeze. 3 helmets on the bottom (and a snail night light!) A great way to contain the spread. If it doesn't fit on the rack, then you shouldn't be carrying it is my new mantra. ( Be great at the end of a single bed too)
