Price: AUD$486 (4-pack starter kit)

These are the most durable, high-quality sneaker storage boxes we’ve ever used, and this makes them the ultimate choice for those with high-end sneaker collections. Fantaqi and RGB-specialists Nanoleaf have delivered the EXPO Smart LED display case which is made from thick plastic that assembles together without tools. Snap the pieces together, stack them, join them with a connector, plug them in, and control all of the colours and animations with the Nanoleaf app or with the touch-button on the case itself. Impressively, you can connect up to 300 LED Display Cases together, and you can even buy a 150-pack for AUD$13,359 if you want to fill an entire room.

Dimensions: 38cm x 29cm x 22cmMaximum shoe size: up to US15/ UK14/ EU50WiFi compatibility: 2.4 GHz (does not work with 5 GHz networks)

Price: AUD$79.99 per box (6-pack)

If you don’t want the RGB lights, app control features, and extremely high-end attention to detail of the Fantaqi x Nanoleaf EXPO Smart LED Display Case, check out the Stacked Magnetic Sneaker Display Case. One of the best sneaker storage boxes, this case delivers everything you want without the fuss of finding power, connecting your phone, and then bothering to turn the case on every time you’re in the room. It’s sharply priced, but remains very high-quality with up to 60kg weight limit (you could almost stand on it), a clear front door so you can see exactly what shoes are inside, and a stackable design.

Dimensions: 22cm x 27.7cm x 37cmMaximum shoe size: up to a US13 high-top shoe standing up

Price: AUD$12 per box (only available in Australia) (1-pack)

We still have a mix of these basic drop-front Kmart shoe boxes alongside our high-end Fantaqi x Nanoleaf EXPO Smart LED display cases because they’re available in-store and represent great value for money. The magnetised door is strong enough that it doesn’t fall down like some cheap alternatives, and the overall build quality is quite high for sneaker storage boxes at this price point. It’s a rectangular shape, so your shoes will not be visible from the side. However, for this price, it’s never something that’s bothered us. If you’re buying in bulk, the Stacked Magnetic Sneaker Display Case is better value, but for starting your collection, the drop-front Kmart shoe box is a great choice.

Dimensions: 22cm x 27.7cm x 37cmMaximum shoe size: up to a US13 high-top shoe standing up (up to US15 on its side)

Price: AUD$55 per box (2-pack), AUD$275 (10-pack)

Similar to the Stacked Magnetic Sneaker Display Case, Sneaker Laundry’s 360 Degree Side View Shoe Box has a magnetic drop-front design that can house shoes up to a US15 in size. However, the main difference here is the clear design, which allows you to view the sneaker from all angles, making it a better choice for those who prefer to display their kicks. Price-wise, it’s a more expensive option than Stacked, and the quality is about even in our experience.

Maximum shoe size: up to a US15 high-top shoe standing up

Price: AUD$140 (6-pack kit)

Lacespace is a Sydney-based label dedicated to sneakers, their accessories and all that jazz. The Stackable Sneaker Display Cases have transcended the contenders on our list for their stackability, sturdiness and durability. The sneaker cases are roomy enough to squeeze in a men’s sneaker that’s US13 in height and US15 in length and are fashioned from a finer material quality than most shoe case brands. Their tight enclosures ensure a dust-free environment for your sneakers and exhibit a clear-view drop-front premium door to easily stow and show off your kicks.

Dimensions: 29cm × 19cm ×35cm (W x H x D)Maximum shoe size: up to a US13 high-top shoe standing up (up to US15 on its side)

Price: USD$11.99 (only available in the USA) (1-pack)

The Container Store has cranked out the formidable X-Large Black Drop-Front Shoe Box. The clear window of the drop-front design lets you see and access the pair ever so swiftly. Forged from premium plastic, the shoe box exhibits ventilation holes that keep your kicks breathing while protecting them from dust build-up. Bearing a drop-front opening that enables you to stow and place your sneaks in effortlessly, the X-Large Shoe Box is an undoubted crowd-pleaser in the sneaker world. It can store men’s shoe sizes of up to US16 in its exceptionally designed interiors.

Dimensions: 31cm x 22.5cm x 41cm (W x H x D)Maximum shoe size: up to a US16 standing up

Price: AU$7 (1-pack)

One of the more minimalistic and inexpensive sneaker storage boxes is brought to you by the best biz in household essentials. The Reject Shop’s Bees Knees Shoe Box is an impressively economical piece that’ll fit your kicks without compromising top-grade material. The all-plastic shoe showcase exceeds the inner dimensions of the standard storage box. It is designed with a circular opening at its door, enabling easy opening and providing a fount of fresh air for the shoes. The outlet also retails a Regular-sized Bees Knee Shoe Box for folks with petite feet.

Dimensions: 32.5cm x 18.6cm x 22cm (W x H x D)Maximum shoe size: up to a US13 high-top shoe standing up (up to US15 on its side)

Price: AUD$89.95 (1-pack)

It’s one of the most expensive sneaker storage boxes that you can buy, but the Joseph Joseph ShoeCase 2-piece Shoe Storage Box is highlighted by a unique design that pushes the shoes towards you when open the drop-front flap. They’re also stackable, but due to the opaque design, you can’t see inside the box, which makes choosing the sneaker you want quite difficult. The box itself is also quite expensive, with one single pack costing a whopping AUD$89.95.

Dimensions: 21.7cm x 27.9cm x 37.5cmMaximum shoe size: up to a US13 high-top shoe standing up (up to US15 on its side)
