How to shrink a leather belt?
139473
Leather does not shrink, but it will stretch.  If you wore it over time on the hole that felt too small, it may eventually feel like it fits better.  Another alternative would be to punch another hole, but that wouldn't look especially nice, in all likelihood.  The problem with stretching a belt is that leather stretches more easily when moisturized and any product that does this is likely to stain clothes because it will cause the dye to bleed.

You're gonna definitley wanna buy a re-lacing kit. You can get them at any sports store. It'll save your fingers, teeth, and any other projectile you're gonna try to use to weave the thick leather lacing through the impossibly tight holes.\n\nOther than that advice, it really depends on the glove. What I'd suggest is trying to find a really good picture or someone who has the same glove; to see where exactly the lacings go.\n\nAnother hint: To keep the laces from ALWAYS coming untied, wet them before tying them off. Wet leather expands and when it dries, the knot will tighten so it'll stay together longer.

heavy twine or leather laces. a large needle and an awl. never done it but i think that would be a good start. you also might think about pressure gloves quilters use them to keep arthritis from setting in which is a big problem if you sew leather by hand. if you use a machine just make sure it will handle leather before you buy it broken needles suck

Use it...and a little shaving cream, use about the size of a quarter for the first 3-5 days that you are going to use it.   DO NOT, I repeat DO NOT, put a ball in it and tie it with laces, rope, elastic, or whatever you'd tie it with.  You want the glove to mould to the shape of your hand from the inside out, and so it moves with your hand, after all it's to protect your hand, not to the shape of the ball outside in.  Whoever that person at sports authority who said to fold it inside out, should at the very least be fired for saying that, you want the glove to last a while I am assuming. You don't want the leather to get too stretched, let alone the damage it would do to your poor lacing.

It will dry out the leather...really bad, the chlorine in pool water is harsh anyway. Once you get it dry, oil it real good with glove oil. Then repeat that as often as possible...you may be able to save it.

Use the glove a lot.  When not in use, rub it with some glove oil, place a ball in it and tie it closed with a piece of cloth.  Do not use string or a rubber band as it could cut into the leather or leave a mark.

If you are going to wash it use a front loading machine. The agitator in a top loading one will tear it. Make sure you close all the zippers velcro etc. Also use a really gentle soap, they make ones that are specifically made for camping gear, I like Nikwax Tech Wash. You can get it a camping store, or outfitters store.
