Pictured below is what may or may not be Tom Wallisch’s new double-tongue ski boots. I don’t claim any trustworthy sources, and for all I know they’re a regular boot with a boxing glove fastened over the buckles.

I’ve heard some uproar over this alleged boot. It seems that fashion tongues are usually associated with rollerblade boots, and we all know how horrible it would be if skiing were equated with its forward-facing bastard cousin. I’m usually more than willing to jump in on a hatefest, but this time ol’ Jonny is going to assuage your fears. You don’t have to worry kids; snowboarders did it too. Behold, the Danny Kass fashion tongue pro model:

I bet you’re relieved. Don’t thank me, this is what I’m here for. You can buy yourself the same (alleged) boots as Mr. Wallisch and not once worry about whether or not that backside grind you’re calling a lipslide looks like a rollerblade trick. Then again, if ideas must be bit, couldn’t we give something like this a try?
