If your boots have been slouching over like they’ve given up on life, I have a quick little fix that makes a huge difference. No tools, no assembly, and zero overthinking. Just slide in some boot inserts* and your boots suddenly look like they belong in a boutique.


As someone who organizes more closets than I can count, I can tell you, the biggest difference often comes from the smallest changes. This is one of those changes.

Why Boot Inserts Matter More Than You Think


Most boots aren’t designed to stand up straight on their own, especially soft leather or suede. They fold, crease, slide down, or do that strange sideways flop that makes your closet look chaotic even when everything else is tidy.

And yes, I know the old “pool noodle hack” made the rounds a few years ago, but these inserts win every time. They’re affordable, they actually conform to the shape of your boot, and they don’t make you feel like you stuffed summer toys into your fall wardrobe.


Boot inserts, especially these clear ones, help by:


  • Keeping your boots upright

  • Preventing creases, cracks, and long-term damage

  • Making your closet look instantly more structured and polished


What Makes These Inserts My Go-To


There are a lot of boot inserts out there, but I'm linking the ones we have used over and over with clients and we've all been pleased with them. You can purchase the variety pack in clear* or black*.


1. You Can Cut Them to Fit Your Exact Boot Height


If you don’t want the plastic peeking out the top, you can trim them to the perfect size. Even though we get the variety size pack sometimes we still need to customize them.


2. You Can Hang The Inserts When Your Boots Are On Your Feet


There’s a little hole at the top that lets you hang them on a hook or the hook of a hanger when they’re not in your boots. Your inserts stay organized, and your closet floor stays clear.


4. They’re Affordable, Durable, and Easy


They’re sturdy but soft, reusable over and over, and you don’t need instructions to use them. Roll, insert, done.


4. They Come in Various Packs

Each pack as 30 inserts (15 pairs) you can also order them in black*instead of clear.

How to Use Boot Inserts Correctly


Using these is as simple as it gets, but here are a few little tricks to make them work even better:


  • Roll the insert tight before placing it inside the boot

  • Let it expand and fill the shape

  • Trim before inserting if you want a custom height ( I would trim from the bottom so you don't loose the circle at the top for hanging.

  • Hang unused inserts on a hook to keep them organized


Slide them in and watch your boots go from “floppy mess” to “I totally have my life together” in seconds. If you would like to see how we used them at a cleint's house check out the video here on YouTube or Instagram.

If you’ve been wanting your closet to feel more organized, more intentional, and a little more “Pinterest pretty,” this is a perfect place to start. It’s low effort, low cost, and high impact, which honestly is my favorite combination in any organizing project.
