New alpinestars gloves -1 is way too tight ...

[Warputer]

The left glove is real tight between the palm and thumb ...gives me cramps in my hand . The right fits perfect . What can I do to stretch it ? This really stinks !

 

[MC MUSTANG]

Is it possible that the gloves are not the same size?

 

[Warputer]

I checked that , they look identical , just feel different ...

Is it possible that your hands are not the same size ?

Soak it in some water then wear it till it dries

How about return them?

How about return them?

I would return them also. I wouldnt douse em in water to get them to fit, if they end up not fitting, there's no way they'll take em back as returns.

Don't return them, water them. You can't make leather shrink very easily, so getting a larger size set to fight both hands will be next to impossible. Stretching leather to fit is another story. Keep em, water the lefty, love em both.

+3 Send them back for a size larger. If one is a little loose, you won't mind.

Found out what the problem was . I have a huge G-Shock watch on the left arm ....never had gloves that wrapped around the wrists before , and the extra size of the watch ....was making the leather stretch across the palm area .

Anyway , took off the watch & glove fits perfect ! I feel like a RETARD !!
