Boot Butler – Organize Your Boots Boot Butlers’ boot hanger supports the shape of your boots and saves space by utilizing the depth of your closet to accommodate the longest dimension of your boots, while the modular boot ladders allow you to suspend them efficiently below your closet rod for great visibility, easy access, and safe keeping. Comes in 3 and 5 pair racks. The great thing about the modular design of the boot racks is that no matter the height of your closet rod, you can fit either size boot rack because if it turns out that you don’t have quite enough space below the rod to hang the entire rack in one column, you can just take the parts that don’t fit and use them to begin another column of boots next to the first.
