Crazy shoe rack you just kick ‘em into
CrunchGear —
... still kick them off, but now I’d be kicking them with a purpose. As you can see, the opposed brushes catch your shoes and suspends them, and I assume knock off any fluff they’ve accumulated. Unfortunately, good ideas like this stay in the boutiques for a while and cost a mint, in this case about €2000, or $2500.
One of these days, boutique designers… I will make my own shoe rack and Tetris shelving system. And your reign of terror will end.

It’s not the light emitted from behind the bristles from two 28W fluorescent tubes that amazes me, but actually the fact that you can “throw in” whatever shoes you may think of, and actually make it look cool. May not be exactly what your mom taught you, but that’s people’s behavior, don’t you think? Buy it for 1,980 euro (some $2,500) on Magazin.com - via SwissMiss

... that this is essentially three planks of wood and a few old brushes, but think of the 3am drunken party games you could have with it, not to mention if your little ones got hold of it and decided to hide inside it.
