Breaking in gloves

[Seth]

I've been riding with my Alpinestars SPS gloves for about 3 weeks straight, everyday and they are still pretty stiff if you ask me. The guy at cycle gear said that there was a way of breaking them in quicker but I forgot what he said on my way home that day.

So, besides just wearing them, is there anyway I could break them in a bit quicker?

Saddle oil, Mink oil, baseball glove oil, leather conditioner, get them wet, throw them in the dryer, wear them 24/7... etc.

You could just wear them every waking hour for the next two weeks.

Thanks guys.

The very first thing I do with all new gear except helmets, is to throw them on the ground as hard as I can. If at the track, I throw them on the racing surface as hard as I can.

This will de-magnatize the ground magnet for a little while.

Oh, and what Moody said to break them in.
:laughing6

That is the same thing I do as soon as I get my gear out of the bag at the track.

i bought some new gloves and threw them in my bike trunk and forgot about them, drove around for like 2weeks when it always really muggy and humid outside. I took the gloves out and they were amazling soft lol

1. put on gloves
2. ride to the zoo
3. find a grizzly bear and give him a hand job

after he eats you and the gloves pass through his digestive system, they should be juuuuuust right. :icon_thum

Walk around and smack people in the face with them. This will also break the ground magnet and possible enter you in a duelling contest.
