Don't know about the curling shoes, but the skaters costumes are really awful this year. I was thinking last night that they should have points for the costumes, but then they would all have them deleted so it would balance out. The snowboarding is a cross over from skateboarding and the kids wear their clothes so big it is a wonder they can keep them up. It looks like the snowboarding outfits are a takeoff on the oversize stuff the kids are wearing. I am just so amazed at what they can do that I forget what they are wearing.
I am afraid the costumes are evolving and I am being left behind. Oh well, the skating is still beautiful and the snowboarding is exciting even if their clothes leave a lot to be desired.

Does anyone know what kind of shoes the athletes are wearing? I thought at first they were skates. But they are not. They are soled shoes that glide on the ice easily. Any opinions on the ice dancing costumes? There must have been a sale on skin-toned beige. LOL! I heard today that one rule is that the women could not show their navels. The featured swan costume was molting! Maybe she should have met up with the male skater, Weir's swan costume. Some of the snowboard outfits looked like 1950s pajamas. Penny E.
