Gloves - Break it in
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 realize how obvious you are being right now?
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. |
