Abstract (en)

[origin: WO8607576A1] A shoe box generally in the shape of a conventional shoe box is moulded from plastics material and may be either transparent or translucent whereby shoes inside the box can be observed externally of the box or may be opaque. The box (10) and lid (11) each have a tapered construction whereby a plurality of boxes are nestable as are a plurality of lids when they are detached from the box. In one form the lid is a clip-on lid and in another form the lid is hinged to the box but may be detached therefrom. A ridge or groove (17) around the top of the lid co-operates with the underside of the box to prevent sliding between adjacent boxes when a plurality of boxes are stacked one on top of the other. Grooves may be provided inside the box to enable one or more baffles to extend across the width of the box thus dividing it into smaller compartments for accomodating smaller size shoes. In one form a handle is provided for carrying the box and contents. The handle is located in a recess in an end of the box whereby the nestable feature is obtained and may be pivotted to a usable position where it extends outside the recess.
