This review is not about a seller or Revain, it is about the shoe itself. I also never write reviews but I am so fed up with this issue that I feel compelled to tell someone else a headache or wasted to save money. My daughter has had to wear this type of shoes at her school for the past 7 years. Having bought SEVERAL pairs over the years I would say almost half have had to be replaced due to mold smell. This odor appears immediately after wearing and is completely random - I have now learned to recognize a faint odor when the shoes are unworn and brand new. After wearing them for a few weeks (and my child has no problem with excessively sweaty or smelly feet - never had problems with other shoes), the smell of "mold" becomes unbearable. Some purchases were made on Amazon and some locally. No rhyme, no reason. Since the smell is so strong that the other kids in the carpool are complaining and I'm tired of spraying or darning dryer sheets, I buy a new pair when replacing and there's a 50/50 chance they'll have this problem have or not. It may be a chemical used in a specific factory, but the smell is ridiculous and strong enough to cause problems for my child. So be careful when you buy these shoes, crazy as it may sound, smell them. If there is any indication of an odor that differs from the usual smell of new shoes/leather, replace them! I pretty much have a bin full of shoes because I didn't, thinking it was an accident, but it's been like this for quite some time now. I have a very sensitive nose, but many others who don't have a strong sense of smell have said they smell the same way. It's absolutely ridiculous how much money is spent on shoes because once you wear them you can't return them and then the smell becomes irresistible! but it has been like this for quite some time now.
