Not just for shoes! I bought 2 of these instead of an expensive dresser. Put side by side inside the closet they do the job! Easy to assemble, sturdy  hold all the stuff a dresser would (depending on how much you have). Oh and shoes. Note we lost  have to replace everything from hurricane Ian. This was a great solution to an unorganized closet. I’ll reuse these for book shelves  other storage since the bamboo is so beautiful. Highly recommend!!!!
