ripe T-shirt

Jennifer WeinerのFly Away Homeを読んでいます。
"I'm fine." She crossed the room and opened her locker. There were her running shoes, a pair of shorts, a sports bra, and a ripe T-shirt that she'd shucked off after a lunchtime five-miler two days before.
想像力の乏しい私には何故Ｔシャツが "ripe" で形容されるのか分かりません。辞書を見ます。
・Oxford English Dictionary: (of a smell or flavor) rich, intense, or pungent.: rich, ripe flavors emanate from this wine
・Cambridge English Dictionary: A ripe smell is strong and unpleasant: There was a ripe smell from his socks.
なるほど、果物でも熟し過ぎると味だけではなく、匂いも悪くなるかも。
