I bought a pair of Bell nomex racing gloves, and they're a tad tight.

How much should I expect these to stretch? They aren't restrictively tight, but they're pretty snug. Is there anything I can do to speed the break-in process, or am I better off exchanging for a larger pair?

Snug is better than loose IME.

They should fit like a glove.

I use dirt bike gloves on the Back 40.

At a 100 degree double weekend w/ a Friday practice, or 2x 5 sessions/day HPDE in July, they'll break in.

Club racing an open cockpit car I have 3 pairs. They all started very snug, and are all good now. You do not want gloves that move around or bunch up.

You'll need to log in to post.
