Gloves - Break it in

NONE_too_SOFT · 05-08-2008, 11:21 AM

Best way to break your gloves in? just got these in the mail

but they are stiff. They fit good, plenty of room in the fingers, but like i said they dont have the flexibility of my Old gloves, really "feels" like i have gloves on , where my old gloves i wouldnt even know i had on.

any techniques for breaking gloves in a little faster?

microwave huh... think i can just use a blowtorch to speed up the process.

C'mon i know theres gotta be some stuff people do. I know i used to wear my new soccer cleats in the shower a couple times then wear em around the house to break em in faster. maybe i'll go take a shower.

Do you have any leather conditioner/cleaner?? the would help loosen them up too.

I'm gonna pick up some leather cleaner and rub em real good. decided that washing them is not a good idea, when the tag specified "do not wash" and then x'd out every washing option.
