Rules of sidewalk conduct in winter:
1. Thou shalt not stop for no reason in the middle of morning foot traffic to look for something in your bag.
2. Thou should not even think of walking three-across with two friends, making everyone behind you go around and through icy snow banks to get ahead of your incredible slowness.
And now, we think we’ve found the ultimate sidewalk no-no: the Glover, a two-in-one mitten combination meant for cold-weather strolling lovers. So now you can have a whole new kind of sidewalk faux-pas to hate on with your friends.
Frankly, we don’t understand how this could exist. Not only is it insane to think you actually need this instead of just holding hands with your own pairs like normal people, but what do you do when you reach your destination? Casually remove your love mitten and ask to see a menu?
We’ve seen it online, but thankfully, never in person (and yet it’s sold out on several shopping sites…)
We really just don’t understand this accessory. If we saw a couple walking 1mph because of this thing, we think we’ve have to bodycheck them into the nearest open store cellar. You?
