Glove help
« on: January 27, 2013, 05:10:14 PM »
Hi lads
Just wondering if there's anyway to make gloves fit smaller without using inners? as I've bought some gloves and are a tad big, and youths is too small.
Any help appreciated
Thanks!
Tony

Wonder if they would shrink if you put them in the dryer? ?

I've thought about that Ryan but I'm not sure whether to as the heat could ruin them maybe?

The only thing the heat would ruin would be any glue, but I don't think gloves have anything glued they're all stitched.  Its only like putting trainers in I suppose.

put them in a pillow case and leave in airing cupboard for a week or so.

This is what a was told once to shrink gloves & pads. No idea if it will work :)

Used to put my Adidas F50+ (black and white ones) in the wash.
They lasted years!
