DD wellies from Asda smell of marijuana

[dungandbother]

Seriously!
I bought them today having web ordered them. We're at a small intimate bonfire and everyone is commenting....

Only one of them.

WTF?

DD has those at the stables, I’m going to sniff them tomorrow 😳

I bought Asda wellies in August and they definitely stank like weed! It's faded now. I think must just be the plastic they used.

i noticed this walking round their shoe section today, was told that its normal and the weather proofing i think it was she said

... the purple sparkles are wonderful and worth it though! 😁

Why are people smelling your DD's wellies?!

It's reeking out the gathering! I'm absolutely thrilled that I'm not the only one ! Hilarious that Asda's all over the country stink like a weed farm

I had the same problem with wellies.

I was seriously puzzled.

One aisle is out ASDA smells like weed too! I thought it was coming from a person the first time but it’s been like that every time I’ve been in there since!

There are similar wellies at Sainsbury’s with the glitter. They stink! I passed on buying them for dd. 🤢

Some rubbery things do smell that way. The seat of my exercise bike stinks of weed.

I've had this problem with a lot of plastic products - even the plastic bags that clothes are sent in sometimes.

Ah yes when we were in Asda last week looking at wellies for DD it was all I could smell! Luckily the Peppa one's we picked out didn't smell at all lol

I was at a bonfire yesterday that REEKED of weed! Maybe I should have been checking out wellies for sparkles to see where the smell was coming from instead of eying up everyone's rollies ✨

It's what there made of, the Next ones do too!

I've been smelling weed a lot too recently. Someone was drinking alcohol free becks at a party last week and that smells like it. I often smell it strongly while walking down the street or driving but can never see anyone smoking. Odd!

It’s the glue probably. It sometimes happens with hand bags as well.

Weed scented boots, best not be going through any airports or customs wearing them

Just amazed at how many of you actually know what weed smells like
(saunters off,whistling, halo in place, but a teeny bit nostalgic for my wild weed-smoking fun days..)

Id have no idea. Never smelled the stuff

Yes to the PP about the exercise bike stinking of weed! Everyone thought I was crazy!

I bought dd some sparkly blue wellies back in August for a weekend activity trip and the smell was horrible and so strong so I left them out to air. I put them inside two carrier backs when the airing didn't work and the other day I moved the bag from under the stairs and it's still as strong as ever!

It’s the plastic or the lining! DD had a pair from Tesco that smelt like she’s just walked out of a café in Amsterdam. They were for school too

is it possible hemp is used in their making? same family as cannabis but no highs - do they have same smell - could they be used in their lining???

Hemp or formaldehyde.

As a toker I can recommend neither.

organicclothing.blogs.com/my_weblog/2005/12/hemp_facts_on_t.html actually I might be right (!!!) hemp is used for lots of things & apparently as its related to cannabis it may smell like it! (but you cant get high :) )!
