Leonardo DiCaprio was left barefoot after US tourists stole his shoes from outside a Japanese temple.
A pair of fans spotted the Titanic star at a hilltop shrine in Kyoto last week and asked him to pose for a photo with them.
But when he refused – pointing to a sign that said picture-taking was prohibited – they waited for him to go inside then pinched his Nike Dunks trainers.
A source told a US newspaper: “They just ran off with them.
“The poor guy had to leave the place barefoot.”
A representative for Leo, 34, had no comment.

Elizabeth Taylor is “inconsolable” over the death of close pal Michael Jackson.
The screen legend is said to have been “screaming in her house” after the singer passed away in Los Angeles in Thursday.
And friends are now worried that the frail 77-year-old is putting her own health at risk with her grief.
Respected gossip columnist Cindy Adams reports: “[She] is making herself so ill over Michael’s passing that her people now worry about her future.”
The actress was reportedly planning to attend Jackson’s opening concert on his comeback tour in London.
Adams said: “She was to leave July 8 on a private plane in a wheelchair with nurses and assistants in attendance.
“In fact, early the very morning he died she called the people whose plane it was for permission to bring another person onboard.”

A ‘lost’ film in which Angelina Jolie made her screen debut at the age of five is to be released on DVD for the first time.
The screen beauty played the daughter of her real-life estranged father, Jon Voight, in flick, Lookin’ To Get Out.
The Las Vegas-set comedy, directed by Hal Ashby, was shot in 1980 on a budget of US$17 million, but did not get a theatrical release until two years later.
It was a huge critical and box-office failure – selling less than a million dollars worth of tickets.
And it has never been available on video until Tuesday’s DVD release of the newly edited version.
Jolie’s scene with Voight lasts just over a minute.
He explains to the blonde child that he’s wearing bandages because he crossed against traffic and that he comes from New York.
The girl replies that the man she believes is her father – Ann-Margret’s male companion in the movie, played by Richard Bradford – “visits New York” a lot.
“I was a co-writer and co-producer, so I had a lot to say about the casting,” said Voight, 70.
He told the newspaper: “Angie was terrific, very well-prepared. I wasn’t looking for any signs whether she’d be an actress.”
Tomb Raider actress Jolie, 34, has been estranged from her father for several years after he accused her of having “serious mental problems” on a US TV show.
