Sole solution

I don't have all that many shoes; I'm more about practicality than frivolity when it comes to footwear. However, I've been thinking lately that my current shoe storage system is just not working. The current system is "put them all on the floor at the bottom of the wardrobe" but this somehow results in almost every pair of shoes I own ending up outside the wardrobe. I think the problem is that the shoes I wear regularly - work shoes, casual shoes, walking shoes - are at the front and can be seen, while the others get pushed, forgotten, to the back, so I try to beat the system by not putting shoes in there at all. That's not entirely practical, I must admit. What to do instead: perhaps a low, tiered shelf that would fit into the bottom of the wardrobe, so I could see everything? Or the cloth shelf I've seen somewhere, like a wine rack, that could be hung in the wardrobe? How do you store your shoes?
