Craig David has revealed that he is obsessed with smelling new shoes.
Singer David added he loves the "smell when you open a fresh pair of trainers".
"That box fresh smell is incredible... I put them in a special cupboard in my dressing room. I’m excessive but never too excessive. There’s four or five [pairs] of the same trainer - maybe that is excessive," David confessed.
David admitted that his love of trainers goes back to his childhood, when he was unable to afford the best footwear.
"One thing I take pride in are clean fresh trainers, it stems back to a kid not being able to afford top of the range trainers.
"When I first got my Nike Huarach, which was a big kind of trainer at the time, I had £70 saved up and I couldn’t wait to go to my local trainer store and buy these trainers and then I didn’t wear them for a year which was a bit weird."
David has recently been involved in a feud with Bo' Selecta! creator Leigh Francis, who regularly mocked the singer on his Channel 4 comedy show.
