I don't use oil, I just break it in

[Billups97]

Nokona conditioner is perfect for all gloves out there... Within a couple of days you can pretty much have your desired break in..

I literally hold my glove and work it all day for like at least a week straight when i first get it, I also play a hella lot of catch

[gascan259]

i oil my glove when i get home from the store and then let it sit a day. then go play some catch and continue to keep the shape of the glove you want while playing catch. then flip your glove inside out to give it that wide infielders glove how its suposed to look.. and it worked like a charm on my wilson a2000

Is this guy well spoken or what...

[rangask8er]

Best way is to first work the glove with your hands and shape it then just throw

[MLBaseball17]

The only way to break in a glove is to throw.
