Yes, these are actual pants worn by actual athletes at an actual Olympics in at least one actual timeline of our existence. They are also—despite Team USA's board-related dominance, the discovery of Russia's Hottest Curler, and the incredible success of out athletes across the Games—perhaps the best thing we've seen at said Olympics thus far. So feast your eyes, feel the love, and make sure to stay with The Loop for all your hard-hitting curling news:
