I am a self-admitted hockey glove nerd. As a typing monkey of sorts, I’m fascinated by the human hand, and as a hockey fan, I’ve always been intrigued by the ways in which equipment companies design the mitts with which our fragile fingers grasp hockey sticks. I think I have seventeen or eighteen pairs of hockey gloves, and I’m not planning on stopping buying them…
So it is with sympathy for an innocuous hobby that I’m posting this video from the Red Wings. It’s a thirteen-minute video of Dennis Cholowski’s shoe collection, and I hope that his shoes bring him the kind of joy my hockey glove collection brings me.
