Struggle is real. Spent 40 mins putting the fingers back in my MF WOT's and they feel like crap now.

been there done that, always check the gloves in the store for that problem before buying them. Have two pairs of the skidoo racing gloves that are completely useless at 140.00 per pair. had the older series they were good bought two pairs off line and here we are. I feel your pain...

Get out your bearing grease needle for the end of your grease gun.
Cut end of silicone tube and clamp zerk end to silicone tube
Push silicone through needle
Realign glove insert. Push needle though tip of your glove outer layer
Put hand in glove and squish tip to smooth the silicone between the two layers of glove
Dry gloves for two days
Put some grease through the needle before silicone sets up

Gloves fixed and still waterproof.

That's how I fix mine.

Not to much silicone or the tips get lumpy.

My gf just suggested, using chop sticks to push the fingers back in.

She he asked why I was laughing so loud :D

My old Klim gloves were doing the same thing, so I went and spent $200 on a new pair that does the same thing and drives me crazy. Going be riding with chopsticks now. How fancy.

Oh and thanks Klim; I think my old pair were medium, new pair ( same style ) is a 2xl. I assume the price nearly doubled because they are spending so much more making them in China. Must be huge import costs .... Sorry off topic ....

Just silicone the tips back together.
Unless you don't like the gloves.
I'll give a mailing address if you're tossing them!

I could almost get them I am close on one hand but the other one its like it defies physics! One finger has someone got trapped with another finger and it just keep pulling them into one then back to the other. I have now been working on it for 2 days. I mean not full days but probably spent close to an hour on the friggin thing already. I think its a gonner. Its either new gloves or I chop off a finger. For the price of this stuff I dunno tough choice.

Its done I have given up. Got one glove fixed but two fingers in the other glove are now one. Tried everything. Its like the perfect storm of glove f'd up ness.

Are there any gloves out there that you can't do this too? Looks like I will be needing to spend money on gloves yet again.
