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.

    10 hours doesn’t count as a break in period. Good leather boots can take a couple hundred hours. Good leather boots can also last thousands of hours longer than cheap boots.
