Hello everyone,

I am currently reorganizing my bedroom and planning to install an IKEA Pax system. This made me wonder: are there IKEA Pax wardrobes or compatible accessories specifically designed for shoe storage?

I’m not looking for general shelves but rather customizable solutions that allow you to store shoes neatly—whether through special shoe racks, pull-out drawers, or other clever ideas.

Does anyone have experience with this or know of suitable IKEA products or third-party components that work well for shoes within the Pax system?

Thanks in advance for your tips!

I really love the PAX shoe organization solutions from IKEA! The pull-out shelves make organizing shoes so much easier! 🙂

What I especially like is that the shelves are height-adjustable – this way, not only sneakers but also tall boots fit perfectly.

My tip: Definitely combine them with small boxes for removable items – this keeps everything nicely organized and helps you find the right shoe quickly.

Don’t be put off, PAX is very flexible and offers a lot of possibilities!

Yes, there are suitable shoe racks available for IKEA Pax, usually as pull-out shelves or special shoe trays. Just add them as accessories during the planning stage.

I would like to add that these are actually prefabricated inserts that can be installed both angled and flat.

The pull-out options are limited to specific Pax widths, for example 50cm (20 inches) or 75cm (30 inches) modules.

For especially large shoes or boots, the standard depth is often not sufficient; in these cases, the deeper Pax depth is recommended.

IKEA’s planners also provide an overview of compatible accessories and allow the combination of several modules with add-ons.

In conclusion, IKEA offers functional and flexible shoe solutions, but measurements and personal requirements should be clearly defined before purchase.

Hey everyone!

Since there has already been a lot of technical discussion, I’d like to share a small tip for anyone considering storing shoes in PAX: try experimenting with different types of shoes in the PAX planner.

It’s actually quite interesting how much changes when you include, for example, sneakers, heels, or hiking boots in your planning!

Also, the combination of angled shelves and small boxes creates an almost playful but very practical effect.

This way, the shoe clutter truly becomes an organizing game! 😄

So, give it a try—even if the planner sometimes seems a bit tricky, in the end it’s really fun, and you’ll enjoy having every shoe neatly stored.
