this was just perfect.. yes almost 1 pr per compartment. but with the cedar liners its awesome i am going to order another one.. nice to be able to find my shoes and i think i am going to have one for summer and one for winter.. women and our shoes.. but noticed some i hadnt wore in awhile were dusty. so this wonderful organizer should help with that also.. you will be happy with purchase and with the double hangers , it is made very good.
