I have always broken in my gloves with oil and practice. I decided to hurry this one along by using the suggested oven tip I have heard about in the past. “Oh, just put your glove in the oven!” I never believed them, because I feared it would catch fire. I thought I was wrong. My Easter was ruined today.
You’re right, and I usually do that to break in a glove. I lost my old glove and I had to break this one in quickly. I tried a new method and it failed.
