Please could you explain how best to set up the following data on a worksheet, several worksheets or in a table/several tables

I then have a front sheet (Sheet1) from which Ideally I would like to call up the information for example

1. choose Shoes, Hats or Shirts from a drop down box in A1
2. If Shoes choosen then have drop down box in A2 to choose Type (Mens, Womens or Childrens)
3. If Mens chosen then have drop down box in A3 to choose Make (Leather, Synthetic or Man-Made)
4. And so on for Style in A4 and Size in A6

I am a complete novice to this but have used vlookup and SUMIF before
so if you can provide an explanation of any formula or how to contructs multiple tables that would be much appreciated
