i was going to suggest that you fold it in half and let the car sit on it overnight. then keep flexing the heel of the glove so it opens and closes easily. then store it with a ball in the pocket when not in use.

A faster, easier break-in is to use Tanners Heat Treat. Watch the YouTube how-to video for Tanners Heat Treat.

Oil is a sales gimmick. Water and shaving cream works much better. Do this: 1. Put two baseballs or one softball deep in the pocket of the glove and tie it up tight. 2. Soak in water for five minutes. 3. Hang it up and let it dry out over night. 4. Untie it and apply shaving cream all over it. 5. Go play catch.

what i do when i get a new glove is put conditioner on it. let it dry overnight then pop in a movie and throw the ball into my glove the entire movie. yes the entire movie usually around 2 hours is what i do. then at night i put two baseballs in it and wrap it up with a bandana and stick it under my matress the next day i repeat the movie thing or watch videos on youtube for over an hour and put it under my matress with baseballs wen i go to bed and the next day the glove is really loose.

try putting glove oil on it first, let it sit for a while. after that try putting an oversized ball in it (about the size of a softball), then u can put the glove under a mattress but with the ball still in it. take it out after a while and go play catch for a while.
