I've just read our latest neighbourhood watch newsletter and apparently last summer foxes stole peoples shoes from their gardens.

I don't know who leaves shoes in the garden, I don't have a garden and I haven't spoken to many neighbours since I moved in.

Since most shoes are made of leather(which is usually cow hide), they take it to chew on, like dogs do.

Same as dogs: to chew on. They like the smell, they like the leather.
Who leaves shoes in the gardens?

Foxes steal shoes because most shoe stores and malls discriminate against foxes.

Do they actually steal them, or just borrow them? If they steal them, it's because they haven't been up correctly and are from the trashy estate, if they just borrow them it's because they need them for a night out, and as your friend just said, the shops DO discriminate against foxes!!!
Rights for foxes,
Votes for foxes,
Shoes for foxes,
Soxies for foxes!!!!
Who's with me on this one?

because people sweat in their shoe's and the smell to FOX and DOGS is similar to deer dung. it's like cat nip to them.

Keep their feet protected from hard gravel and hot pavements
