BEIJING (AP) — American curler Matt Hamilton has some pretty wild shoes with him at the Beijing Olympics.

They were converted for curling use by adding a gripping sole on one and a sliding sole on the other. The member of the defending gold medal-winning team says he likes to show his personality on the ice.
