    Imagine hitting your ankle to one of the hooks

      I can’t help imagining my kid falling over, and impaling his eye sockets. Unlikely? Probably. But still a hard pass.

      Why is my brain like this?

      Doesn’t seem like it would be an issue. You wouldn’t be walking right along the wall close enough to hit them. Plus if it’s in a corner like in the pic, even less chance. Not my pic, so I wouldn’t know in person.

      You must be really and I mean really tall to have ankles 12-16 inches off the floor.

    That’s cute. I like the look. But one of the major benefits of a shoe shelf is you can take the shoes on and off and place them on the shelf with just your feet. I’d have a really hard time putting my shoes on a shoe hook with my foot only

      I agree. I have a pretty big shelf for mine. I just saw this and it seemed like a good idea if you don’t have many shoes. Plus it gives you a little more floor room.

        Yea I personally don’t like looking at the bottom of the shoes all the time, but this would be great if you wanted to let the water drain off them to dry. Just put something underneath to catch the stuff

    This is one of the most inconvenient things I’ve ever witnessed.

    Now I can display the most visually appealing parts of my shoes! The soles!

    In all seriousness, this would create a giant mess instantly. Imagine the mud stuck to the bottom of shoes just on display for anyone walking past.

    I’m told this after I start building a shoe rack… damn it!
