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.
No, I preheated it. It was at 350F before I placed it in the oven. Maybe the glove is just cheap. Maybe the method works on 100% leather gloves.
