A shoe management includes an inner cabinet; a suction port; a discharge port; a connection flow path; a dehumidifying agent; a heater; a sump; a recycling flow path; and a condenser. The air in the inner cabinet circulates in the shoe management apparatus while flowing in the connection flow path through the suction port, being dehumidified by the dehumidifying agent, and then, being discharged into the inner cabinet again through the discharge port. The heater is located in the connection flow path and recycles the dehumidifying agent. The condenser is located to be lower than the dehumidifying agent and higher than the sump, and is formed to be metallic.
