Wooden Shoe Trees: Features and Models

An accessory that helps preserve shoe shape and supports shoe care: explore the main models and available finishes.

Supporting the shape of your shoes

Made up of a front section and a heel, a shoe tree helps maintain the shoe’s shape and reduce creases and distortion. It is also useful during cleaning, dyeing and applying leather treatments. Choose a size that matches the shoe.

Wooden shoe trees: woods and finishes

The range includes beech, limewood, poplar, shima and cedar. Natural and lacquered models come in gloss or matt finishes, in shades from natural to brown, dark brown, cherry and black. Natural wood helps absorb moisture after wear.

Full-shape models with one or two springs

The toe and heel are connected by one or two springs that maintain lengthwise tension. The front may have a central hole to encourage airflow. Different heel shapes and ring or knob handles are available, including models for women’s high heels.

Split-toe models: widthwise support

Available with one or two lengthwise springs, these models have a central or side split in the toe. Internal springs also maintain widthwise tension at the front of the shoe.

Coil-spring and screw-adjusted models

The coil model uses a galvanised spring; cuts in the toe reduce weight and encourage airflow. On the screw model, the distance between toe and heel is adjusted by turning the heel. The shaft can be wood or metal, and the folded model takes up less space.

Tradigo tip

Start with the shoe size, then consider the structure: full shape, split toe or

screw adjustment. The choice of wood and finish completes the model.

Personalisation

Models can be made to customer requirements and personalised with a logo, for an accessory aligned with your identity.
