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.
Not really laws, at least in the US. So long as they don’t claim it’s made of things it isn’t, they can say “well the packaging clearly states it’s not real, actual leather”.
IMHO this is misleading/false marketing. In the food market this would never fly, at least not in most western countries. In my country you can’t even call almond milk almond milk because it’s technically not milk, even though there’s nothing misleading about it… So why wouldn’t the same apply to non-food products?
I honestly don’t know if there’s laws against it outside of food in my country, and I suspect there’s little to no enforcement even if there are laws… But saying “LEATHER GLOVE by the way it’s synthetic leather” is exactly the sort of thing laws should protect against.
