Well, got my gear. Any suggestions on the best way to break it in?

Looking good!!

Just wear it around the house everyday.


You could also try some leather conditioner or saddle soap.

Good looking stuff. +1 I do the same thing. Wear it around the house.

There are people who put them into the trunks/backs of their cars and let them slide around and slam into things.

Wear them around the house when you are doing nothing. Keep them on for at least an hour so they have time to warm up from your body heat which helps speed up the process.

My mother used to work at a saddle store and they would tell customers that bought leathers to wear them in the shower, then use a good leather conditioner

[Doc]

Too break in combat boots we would go on a 12 mile ruck march through the swamp...

Then let em dry on your feet. They fit like a glove after that!

I would't do that in new leathers... I may try it in a set of my old ones.

I still maintain, napping in them works wonders

Cool, good suggestions. Do you think jumping out of the back of a pickup at 70mph a couple times would do it? Also, I understand there is a ju-ju voodoo kindof thing where you gotta roll around on the ground for a while so the suit can make peace with the ground and not force you to crash the first time you wear it out on the bike`
