If, like me, you live with someone who a) loves shoes, and b) doesn’t love tidying up after themselves, then you’ll appreciate just how messy shoes can make a room look.
Take my 12-year-old son, for example, who has a penchant for footwear. This means that every birthday and Christmas, he asks for a new pair of trainers, and he saves up his pocket money to buy second-hand trainers, shoes, and boots on Vinted.
