taste-wise(well, I guess they have to be visible from the nosebleed

The curling shoes have a rubber slip on sole that they use to walk on
the ice. They remove the slip on part to reveal a composition sole
that glides. This they use this sole when they are throwing the
stone. They replace the over -portion for the balance of the time.
