Hello. If I used this on a shoe rack, would the holes in the material allow dirt fall to the shoes below? Thanks.

Yes if it is small dirt. It might also stick to your shoes, so when you pick them up it will come with them for a second. Just like it does with dishes and cups. It does allow for air flow, which is a plus.

You pretty much just use a scrub brush to get off any dirt or other stuff that might stick to the bottom ... a damp rag does the rest. Easiest to clean shoes EVER!!!

I would never place the shoe bench outside. It is perfect for an inside entry way, closet or by your back door. Every person that comes into our home asks where it was purchased at. It really is nice and strong enough to sit on when putting shoes on. We love it, but again I would not place it outside.

I drilled two holes into each foot rest about half-way down and threaded some long shoe laces through. After you Velcro your shoes in, tie the shoelaces over your shoes. I don't have the slipping issue anymore.

I used it as a coating for my tennis shoes for work so they didn't get dirty. I would imagine it would work for something like that.

I would say no, the shelves are slanted and not very far apart. Suitable for shoes, I would not think it would be a good way to store shoes in their boxes however.

I agree with your previous responders. works great with closed shoes, not sandals.

I use it outdoors, though it is mostly protected from rain. It wouldn't be useful for very muddy shoes.

A picture would help, I purchased this shoe rack and it buckled at the plastic connects and all my shoes were on the floor in a heap. I would pass on this rack if you are planning on putting maximum amount of shoes.

I must agree with some other posts regarding cracking, etc. I am currently experimenting with "cloth" covered vertical blinds. So far, there is no problem. I would take my shoes to a shoe repair shop and ask them what you should use to protect your shoes. Good luck.

Mine is completely filled and I have had no problem. I did use it for flats and sandals mostly - not what I would call heavy shoes.

The shoes will not slide around. The body is sturdy enough for you to stand it up in the closet. The shoes are a snug fit, in my opinion. Go for it and let me know how it works out for you. thanks Dee

Ours is on a concrete floor in a garage. We don't put wet shoes on it because the shelves are laminated wood, I think the finish would buckle quickly with damp things on it consistently.

Yes, the rack holds up very well. I have it expanded as far as it can go and have 6 pairs of shoes on the top and bottom levels of the rack. I have 4 pairs of boots on the top rack and it has held up great!

I have this shoe rack, and I did not have any problems with the wood splitting after the screws were in, halfway or all the way.

I don't think that would be the best choice for stair treads unless you ran a runner down the stairs or those carpet pads. I just think the finish would wear off from that type of abuse with your shoes. It might look great, but it would not hold up. It is great for any type of furniture (but you don't walk on your furniture)

This particular one would not work well with shoes. It is great for jewelry and other smaller items. I have seen other organizers that would work with shoes
