Where I live it's getting that time of the year where the snow is turning into slush and it ruins all your shoes and back of your pants when you walk through it. whats worse than walking through the slush is then tracking that mucky mess into the house. to protect your floors from the mud and water you may try a shoe rack, however a shoe doesn't help you much if your shoes still drip mud and water onto the floor. my suggestion is to have a shoe mat instead of a shoe rack. the mat should have a boarder around it too keep water in and off the floor. another suggestion is to get a shelf or cubby holes to put shoes in. its an easy way to store them without taking up as much space if you were to lay all the shoes out on the floor.
When you are younger you should have learned to wipe your feet off and leave the shoes at the door. however kids can be very forgetful, and so can you as you get older. when you are in a rush to come in grab something and go, you don't really want to take the time to take off your shoes, so what ends up happening is a big mess of dirty shoe prints all through out the house. its best that in front of every entry way there is a section of linoleum or tile, and i suggest that on that surface you lay down a washable rug to wipe off your feet. what's difficult with carpet is that it's hard to wash. if you lay down a rug it should help to protect your carpet and flooring.
