i bought a pair of summer type gloves off tardme large size but even though i dont have large hands they are a tad tight can i stretch them a little and how would i do this apart from getting a gorila to wear them for a while they are a technic enforcer if that matters

Hey there
Not sure about your gloves,
Are they leather with mesh?
We got some Dririder ones that were a tad too tight, but they did loosen up.
Maybe you can soak them and then wear them? Just a thought it works for boots?
I would just wear them all the time

New gloves are always slightly on the tight side for me .. takes about a week for them to become more comfortable just through wear :)

You have to be very carefull with gear,as they are generally asian sizes & can easily catch you out,I would suggest just wearing them to stretch,if they are leather,they will stretch to the shape of your hand

I bought some Quasi gloves and they were real tight as I don't like them loss.
Probably a size too small for me. Good gloves and did well in my off. I still use them but it took a month to break them in and until then my knuckles went raw and I wore them around the house clenching and unclenching my fingers.
Now they fit perfect. Most materials will stretch in time. My leather suit was so tight from new I couldn't breathe and hardly could get on the bike. Now, perfect.

I borrowed some real small leather pants for a trackday when I didn't have my own. They were so tight I couldn't throw a leg over the bike and had to climb on over the back!

Also, Just make sure that they don't have excessive bling on then eh Nasty :blip:
I think you must have been Quasi's best friend when you bought them gloves on Saturday :rofl: He probably gained about 5k per litre by lossing that weight in the van.
Come on Grub, let the world see Nasty's new gloves....
