Getabako
A is a Japanese shoe cupboard, usually situated in the genkan, an entryway or porch of the house. In Japan, it is considered uncouth to not remove one's shoes before entering the house.〔(Removing Shoes ) // Japanese Culture and Daily Life, The Japan Forum. Originally, The Japan Forum Newsletter no8 "A day in The Life" June 1997.〕〔(Getabako: Let’s get some shoes ) // Corey Klassen, Feb 28, 2011〕 Near the getabako is a slipper rack,〔(Japanese social organization ), University of Hawaii Press, 1992, ISBN 0824813863, page 117〕 and most people in Japan wear slippers around the house, except for rooms which have tatami flooring as they are bad for the floor. The getabako is usually made of wood and bamboo, and there are many sold all over the world.
The word getabako is originated from (下駄 ) (geta - a type of Japanese footwear) + (箱 ) (hako - box).〔(Japanese Morphophonemics: Markedness and Word Structure ), page 231: "Undergoer: hako, Compound: geta-bako, Gloss: clog-box, shoe rack, chest for footwear"〕
Usually there are big getabako in schools and kindergartens, and each student has his own section. Sometimes students store personal things there, or use them to leave love letters.〔〔http://japanesense.wordpress.com/2012/11/11/a-glimpse-of-japanese-schools-life-part-2/〕〔(Removing shoes ) // A day with Kentaro, The Japan Forum〕
