I went to the London bike show today and came back with a lovely new leather racesuit. It fits like a glove but as with all new leathers, is a mite stiff and I dont really fancy walking around like a robot trying to break it in!
Its snowing, and probably will be for ages yet, so no chance of getting in some riding to ease my lady lumps into the new suit.
Any ideas as to how I can stretch my leathers? Im in a daft mood today so all silly answers accepted. Well, within reason.
 
Get your kid brother to wear them for a day or so.Or someone that a little larger than yourself.And if possible go out in the snow,yes.
But keep them on until thy have dry ed out on you.
Or how about putting some large balloons inside and blowing them up.(Yes).
 
Hello, i know your pain!

Stuff them with newspaper tight and then put them in the cold(it really works)!

get someone else to wear them or put your arms inside eg a leg and push outwards but not too hard...

Best of Luck!

What you need to do is wear your leathers and ask a friend to rub baby oil into them.
