    Just got a new pair of SP1's. I had heard these things fit tight so I went to a large. Man, I can barely get my hand in and out of them.

    Anyone know how much they break in or should I opt for x-large?

    Thoughts or others with knowlegde of how the gloves wear?

    Thanks,
    Kerry

    Their sizes run extreemly small, get the next size up.

    I just got a new pair of gloves last month, not AplineStars but when ordering I thought I needed a large. When I got them they were tight, hard to get on and off. Checked my old gloves and sure enough, they were XL.

    Anyways, took some advice from others and tried soaking them in water and wearing them for a while to see if they would stretch. I drove from almost the whole way to a race with them on hoping they would stretch. Went out in practice session, came in before making one lap to get my old gloves.

    Try to exchange them, keep tags on, sell to someone but get the bigger size. They will probably not stretch enough to work.

    They won't stretch much, and Astars gloves run small, better off with the next size up.

    Ask the people you bought them from to exchange. Shouldn't be a problem.
