A stripper sells her smelly used heels online to random men - and makes double what she paid for them.

Leah Beth, 25, works as an exotic dancer in a strip club in Magaluf, Mallorca, Spain - and gets through a lot of heels doing it.

She used to bin her shoes when they got worn and smelly - until she realised that could become a side hustle for her.

For the past year, Leah has been putting her smelly second-hand heels on Vinted.

She says men rush to purchase them and even say "the smellier the better" - and some even make bizarre requests such as sticking gum and cigarette butts to the bottom."

At €80 to buy new, having to replace her worn shoes every three months was a big expense, but when she now sells them on Leah makes that back instantly - and more.

Her last pair sold for €170 and she has vowed to never throw away an old pair again.

Leah, originally from Doncaster, South Yorkshire, said: "Working as a stripper, I wear them for hours and hours and eventually they stink."

"It's such an ongoing expense - continuously buying these shoes."

"When I realised there were people out there actually looking for dirty smelly shoes, I started putting them up for sale."

"I don't make thousands from it but why spend money on new shoes when you can get them for free, with a bit extra too?"

"It never occurred to me before but now I'm thinking, I've been dancing for seven years - all those shoes I've thrown away over the years that I could have sold."

Leah first noticed there might be a market for smelly old shoes after uploading some normal clothes to Vinted a year ago.

She started getting messages asking if she had any shoes to sell - and it became clear there was a demand.

Having sold just a handful of pairs so far, in each case it only took a matter of hours for interest to flood in.

She says people ask her how many times they've been worn - because for them, the smellier the shoes, the more appealing they are.

One man inquiring about a pair recently on sale asked if she would stick a piece of chewing gum and a cigarette butt to the bottom of them.

She said: "He said he wanted to chew the gum."

"I said he'd have to pay an extra €50 for it and left a note when I sold the shoes saying 'eat your dinner'."

While she sells her old club heels on an as-and-when basis, she has an arrangement in place with one man who likes second-hand trainers.

Whenever Leah needs a new pair, he'll pay for them for her - if she sends him her old sweaty ones in return.

She said: "I just have to promise I don't wash them."

"He's so chuffed with that arrangement too - he believes he has the better end of the deal."

"I'm financially comfortable but you can never have too much money."

Sometimes she gets timewasters who pretend to be interested, just to speak to her.

To combat this she speaks bluntly to ensure the conversation won't stray beyond the business transaction - and has no problem ghosting people.

While she has no intention of making it into a full-time business, she encourages other women to hunt in their wardrobes.

She said: "There are people who might want to put more time and energy into it."

"There's room to go into selling things like gym trainers, socks, pantyhose."

"Or I do also get a lot of requests for pictures and videos of my feet, walking around, getting them dirty - even stepping in cake."

"Once you get past the fact it's kink and fetish content, it's just like walking along the beach barefoot."
