I am selling these because my child has outgrown them. In my personal opinion as a parent, they didn't smell bad. I didn't notice anything else worth mentioning. They were only used at ski resorts, so they haven't been worn more than 10 times over several years. There are no smokers in the household. Please refrain from purchasing if you are overly concerned about details. If you don't need the box, I will discount the price by 500 yen. Thank you for your interest.
