Sell them, and use the cash to buy a pair that fit you. Thumbs Up

Try them on first this time! Rolling Eyes

(Said from the point of view of someone who was wearing her fella's gloves when we got knocked off & still has the scars on her knuckles when they came off. Embarassed

)

Or wear another pair of gloves inside them, I've got some nice silk inner gloves that I use in summer, keeps my hands cool and can be washed to avoid 'stinky glove' syndrome.

In winter I have a pair of slightly large leather gloves that allow a pair off woolen gloves to be worn inside them.

Slam your hands in a door a few times until they swell up - that should work!

Put on a pair of marigold gloves.

Then put on your bike gloves.

Fill marigold's with water.

Tape around wrists.

You now have super cushioned gloves. Wink

OK.

soak them for an hour in hot water with washing up liquid, add a pinch of salt.

Now the tricky bit....

Put them in a microwave for no longer than 3 minutes on full power.

It doesnt shrink the gloves but smells just like a chicken curry cooking..
