To easily remove a foot from a shoe via a recessed part by forming the recessed part to which the heel part of the shoe is to be locked on a step or the like.
A shoes take-off tool is composed of a step 12 provided so as to be positioned at a required height from a floor surface and a recessed part 14 formed in a curved shape at one open end of the step 12 and set to an inner peripheral dimension allowing the passing of the heel part of a user wearing a shoe 13 but blocking the passing of a counter 13a of the shoe 13. When the user takes off the shoe 13, by raising the foot in the state of making the counter 13a of the shoe 13 face right below the recessed part 14 in the step 12, the heel part of the user passes through the recessed part 14 but the counter 13a of the shoe 13 is locked to the recessed part 14 and blocked from passing through and thus, the shoe is taken off.
