Smelly new leather shoes!!

wendyf_3

Hi a strange request for help please. I bought my 1 year old a new pair of (expensive!) shoes but they are very very smelly! He has only had them on once but i kept thinking that he was dirty until i realised that it was the shoes! I think its the leather but they didn't come with an instructions on how to clean them etc.
Can anyone help??
Thanks

Fill some cotton bags with bicarb or cat litter and leave in the shoes overnight or fill with dry newspaper and leave overnight any one of these solutions should help

I would be taking them back I think! I'm no expert on leather, but surely good leather shoes shouldn't smell - maybe the leather wasn't cured fully?
