Shoe Stor is looking for models

You could be the next Naomi Campbell or Fabio......:)

Or do it out of the goodness of your heart and help us replace this goof, visionary, um, guy who answers your phone calls and emails.

Email Shoelover, post a comment here (or even make a post on your own blog and send us the link). Telling us why you should model for Shoe Stör; You can tell us about your shoes, tell us about your inner beauty, even how you have been insecure your entire life because your younger siblings were better looking than you or even how you were kicked off of America's Next Top Model for not pouting enough.

If Shoelover thinks you are worthy, Shoe Stör will get in touch with you in order to send you out some boxes (so make sure there is an email address we can reach you at!!!).  Take some pictures with the boxes -shoes in, shoes out or even wearing the boxes as a Carmen Miranda style headdress.

Submissions from women and MEN are accepted (we know there are a few of you guys who are fanatical about your shoes)

Send the pictures back for Shoe Stör to post on our sites and the boxes are yours to keep.*

*Legal Disclaimer (notice this is not in fine print): Shoe Stör reserves the right to discontinue this promotion whenever it wants, send random numbers and styles of boxes to candidates of its own random choosing and select random pictures for posting.  All submitted pictures become the property of Shoe Stör  Ya, you could just keep the boxes, and not send Shoe Stör back the pictures, but we will track you down and force you to wear a double knit polyester dress (that goes for the guys too) if you don't honor your end of the bargain. There is no cash compensation or value for this offer.  All of Shoe Stör's standard policies and terms of use apply to this offer.

Large Women's Clear Shoe Boxes

No, they are not shoe boxes designed for the rubenesque women, they are clear shoe boxes that are designed to accommodate up to a size 15.5 woman's shoe!  Shoelover just couldn't come up with any copy that didn't make it sound like these boxes were designed for the shoes of overweight ladies (people of all dimensions can use Shoe Stor's clear shoe boxes, Shoelover doesn't discriminate based on size, color, race or sex, just style).

We tried a few other names for the box:

• Bigger Women's Shoe Box;
• Larger Women's Shoe Box; and
• The clear shoe box for women with bigger feet (ok technically this is exactly what the product is but it doesn't really roll of the tongue)

So, anyways, here is the large women's clear shoe box.  $54.95US for a pack of ten.  Perfect for any of you who wear something bigger than a size 10 or have some really funky platforms

Better Late than Never

Our guest has finally made it and in typical male fashion, it's late................our clear shoe box for men!!!!

Shoe Stör’s men’s clear shoe boxes are made of polypropylene and measure 13.5" x 8.5" x 5.25" and hold shoes up to size 14 (US & Canada), 13.5 (UK), 48.5 (Europe) & 12.5(Mexico).  A 10 pack is $54.95US when purchased from the US website.  We will have Canadian and international pricing in a day or so.

Now you can stop tripping over your husband's shoes!

New International Shipping Stuff

As many of Shoelover's international friends know, Shoe Stor has been shipping world wide since the day we opened for business in 2005.  And since then, Shoelover has learned a few things:

1. It's much cheap to receive a gift than to give one;

2. 24 hours a day is not enough when you run your own business; and

3. Sometimes the mail does not always get through.  And it is on this note Shoelover would like to let you all know about Shoe Stor's international site.  All orders placed through this site are shipped world wide via Air Parcel Post, which means that you people down under or across the pond should get your goods in about 10 days.  So yes, some of Shoe Stor's pricing has changed, but now you'll all get your boxes much, much faster.

For those of you who live in Canada and the US, there are no changes at all.

You're a Bag!!!

Boxes in Action (How to put 9 pairs of shoes where once there was 4)

Shoelover has been getting tons of emails lately about how to arrange a shoe collection with Shoe Stor's clear shoe boxes, so rather than write about it, Shoelover will show you what how a wonderful Shoe Stor customer arranged their shoes.  So without further ado:

Notice the poor use of shelf space.  Let's change that pronto!

Now there are 3 pairs in the same space formerly occupied by 1 pair;

Over halfway there - 5 pairs in the space that used to be taken up by two pairs; and

Finally, 9 pairs of shoes in the space that initially could only accommodate 4 pairs, all without the use of tools or breaking a nail.

Another prime example of Shoe Stor's clear shoe boxes in action and why photography should be left to professionals:)  Just screwing with ya, thanks for the contribution, your check is in the mail.

Calling All Canadians!!! (Canuck Bucks)

Toonies, Loonies, Canuck Bucks............Shoe Stor is now taking them in return for clear shoe boxes.

For those of you who haven't a clue as to what Shoelover is babbling about, don't worry as it probably means you aren't Canadian, but just in case you feel some urge to spend Canadian dollars, Shoe Stor is now accepting Canadian dollars.

And remember our $9.99 flat rate shipping and all transaction are processed securely with InternetSecure

Shop Canada!

Why Shoelover Loves Complaints!

Shoelover : How May I help You?
xxxxx xxxxx : Question
I received my shipment yesterday and was very disappointed. The boxes will not stay together at the ends and keep faling down.
I need to return the shipment and have this removed from my credit card.
The return shipping needs to be paid by your company as well.
How do I accomplish this?
xxxxx xxxxx : good morning
Shoelover : When you say not staying together, how are you closing them
xxxxx xxxxx : I am inserting the tab into the opening but I think the way they were stacked does not allow them to stay inserted. I even put a light weighted shoe in, but the minute I insert anything into the box, one of the tabs release and then the box begins to fold.
xxxxx xxxxx : I tried the same thing with a heavy shoe, same results
Shoelover : I have your email, what I am going to do is send you a link that shows how the boxes should be closed. after you get it, let me know if that was the way you did it
Shoelover :
Shoelover : ok?
xxxxx xxxxx  : ok
Shoelover : So i am going to end this chat, send you the link and then email me back
xxxxx xxxxx : okay should I ask for anyone in particular on the e-mail chat
Shoelover : nope

So Shoelover sent over this link and about 5 minutes later gets this email from xxxxx xxxxx:

Yes

It worked much better.  My closet is already looking more distinguished.

I am going to order more

Thank you

And about three minutes later gets this email from xxxxx xxxxx:

An online order was just processed on the Shoe Stor web site. Below is the information for the order.

So what is the moral of the story...Shoelover loves complainers!!!

Why Shoelover Does It

Momma, I'm coming home! (Oh, Canada!!!)

Big things going on at the Stor, we are opening our second distribution center in........................CANADA!  In other words, once up and running, all of our Canadian orders will be filled directly in Canada (in the very near future that is).

Now to answer a few questions that Shoelover often gets about Canada.

1. Is it cold in Canada?  Answer: Yes, in winter.

2. Will I have to pay duties on my order? Answer: Nope.  There will be no additional fees/charges other than what you see on the website.

4. Will Shoelover's Canadian distribution center be in an igloo?  Answer: Yes, yes it will be.

5. Does Shoelover know Dave from Vancouver?  Answer: Wow, what a small world, you know him too?  Hey do you know Susan from Chicago?

6. How do you feel about Canada allowing homosexuals to marry one another?  Answer:  Hell, Shoelover thought one of the advantages of being gay was not getting bogged down in all that marriage B.S.  Who knew that gay would be the new straight.

7.  Has anyone ever told Shoelover that Shoelover tends to stray a bit from the topic of shoes?  Answer:  Has anyone ever told you to keep your keep your opinions to yourself.

Boxes to the Bronx

Kathy from the Bronx writes:

"Well here's the three of my favorite shoes. The first pair is my white Tommy Hilfiger stiletto pumps, this is one of my fave because of its sexy 4 inches heels and i really got a lot of compliments whenever i wear that shoes.

The second is a pair of pink wedge espadrilles that is made from braided Sinamay Straw, it is indeed a a perfect shoes for spring/ summer because of its natural look and feel.

The third pair is my fave sandals, it has a cork sole ala Birkenstock. I really adore this pair of sandals because it is so comfy and really made for walking."
