Aside from being a necessity in our lives, shoes have become big business in the collector's world. While women are known to covet red-soled Louboutins, men are just as much in the shoe-collecting game when it comes to snapping up vintage and rare sneakers too. For this reason, home electronics giant LG recently launched a couple of high-tech solutions targeted at shoe lovers and sneakerheads, who are looking for the perfect solution to cleaning, storing and putting their prized collections on display.
The new LG Styler ShoeCase and ShoeCare package answers an age-old problem faced by "sneakerheads" - specifically, being forced to choose between displaying a fabulous pair of sneakers versus keeping it in good condition. Equipped with LG's state-of-the-art TrueSteam technology, this all-in-one bundle is not only space-efficient but protects against humidity and fabric-discolouring UV light as well, ensuring that your display pairs are always kept pristine.
The LG Shoecare cubes
On the inside, guests will be able to observe the shoes in all their glory with a 360-degree rotating turntable, and the best part is that you're not limited to just one. The Styler ShoeCase features a modular design that allows for up to four display cases to be stacked on top of one another, and the 10 different ShoeCare protocols cater to all sorts of shoe types, from leather to suede and even sports footwear.
In addition, the Styler ShoeCare solution also utilises the aforementionedTrueSteam technology in tandem with LG's Zeo-Dry filter and multiple Moving Nozzles to refresh up to four pairs of shoes in just 37 minutes. The Zeo-Dry filter leverages zeolite's innate ability to soak up moisture and remove smells, while the Moving Nozzles can automatically adjust their height based on the display pairs that are being worked on.
The LG Shoecare Cabinet
Aside from the display cases, LG also introduced the Shoecare cabinet, where two pairs of shoes can be refreshed at any one time with the in-built Dual Care system, even if they have different fabric care needs. Naturally, users can tailor these refresh protocols and access other miscellaneous features through LG's handy ThinQ app, which the company will constantly keep updated through collaborations with different lifestyle brands.
Pricing and availability for the case and cabinet have not been revealed, but we're pretty sure they are going to be high on the list for homeowners with walls of sneakers and/or heels.
