Fastest way to break in new gloves?

[McBiggity]

Got some new gloves and need to break them in for saturday. Any suggestions other than wearing them while I type at work?

[Uncle Snake]

Put them in the dryer on "air" setting(no heat) with a couple of sneakers. That ought to beat them a little softer.

[bigred875]

wear them

[schleppy]

I just wear them around the house and clench+release a fist as much as I can stand. That usually does it.

hehe... This is strange, but in the past I've thrown them into a bucket of water, Then I put them on and go for a ride to dry them out real good. It reshaped them to my hands pretty quickly.

Strange... I know. but it worked.

I actually do basically the same thing. I buy the gloves as tight as I can but still get them on my hands. Then wet and wear them until they are dry. Works great!

thats what i'm saying. wear them in the shower, and then wear them until they dry. sounds stupid, but it works.

i'm sorry I laughed at your suggestion earlier, lol.
I'll try it after work.

Orrr, if you want them to be very supple, go to a shoe store, like Red's and buy a bottle of Neats foot oil. It is hand lotion for boots. Actual hand lotion will do in a pinch though, because after all leather IS skin.

I just knew someone would take that ball and run with it.

Any leather item ... get it wet and go for a looooooonnnnnng ride till dry.

When wet, they are very flexible and will mold itself to your body.

Never use heat to dry leather.

[OreoGaborio]

yup, do the "get wet & ride" method.

[The Snowman]

Spray water inside them and wear them for a while.
