I think you can figure out the rest without much help from me. Your feet, without a barrier to protect your shoes, will quickly infuse the interior of those John Lobbs or Jimmy Choos with a damp layer of salt. Worse? It is - literally - where the Sun don't shine and will stay damp for quite some time ... all the while making absolutely sure to seep into the pores of the leather. A virtual bacterial oasis! And for those of a scientific bent - lest I get chastised by my "Editor Corps" - it is actually the bacteria growing in the sweaty environment which cause the odor, not the sweat itself.
