At least some of our shoes usually are filthy, but surely its more artisanal to have some mud on your walking boots.
I have size 12 feet and as others have said the flip down locker things don't fit most of my shoes - main advantage of the ladder style is it fits everything and you can see which shows are where at-a-glance.
I am also fine with my home looking like it is actually lived in, so shoes on display doesn't bother me!
We have one of these from Futon company. Stores a tonne of shoes and doesn't take up much space at all
