Could be: They are probably too moist. This can cause athlete's foot over time.

Yes it could be: Try wearing a different pair of shoes and see if it happens, if not than you know it's the new ones.

Fungus or shoes: It could be that your feet are to moist. This could be because your new shoes do not breath and air out enough. This may cause the odor. Also, odor is caused by bacteria and fungus.
