Shoe cabinet affirms tribal query: Yes, you can Kick It

There's only one problem I can see with the "KickIt" shoe rack: lobbing shoes into a forest of plastic bristles is going to dislodge a lot of dirt and hobo muck into the bottom of the cabinet. I hope there's an easy way to clean it all out.

But besides that? I'm into it. I'm a bit of an edge case shoe fancier: I like to keep them looking nice and everything, but I also sometimes just get lazy and throw them on the floor. Having a cabinet I could drunkenly jam my foot into sound great.

Not $2,500 great, mind you.

Blogger meta-whine: It's a shame that out of all the websites linking to this there's not a higher-quality image. It pains me to see such a compressed JPG wafting around — I bet it pains the original designers even more.

I want. Though I could see drunkenly breaking a shinbone putting my shoes away.

Another excellent quasi-cryptic music reference!

You act as though you can't drunkenly jam your foot into any old cabinet.

You're drunk, and therefore invincible! (until you sober up... but we'll sign your cast!)

Looks like you can easily make the same whith wood and two industrial plastic brooms, although i would not recommend it for expensive leather shoes.
