Heating a OPT1K glove with boa? Can it happen?

[Jacob Musselman]

So I just recieved my Brian's opt1k gloves this week and was about to heat it when I remembered it had BOA in it. I became a little worried that the heat might damage the dials or mechanism.

Does anyone know if I am able to still heat it to break it in. The proccess is spraying the outside with water, keeping it closed with a string or any other such item, then heating it in a skate oven for 5 min, then playing with the glove until it cools.

Skate oven temps are pretty benign for something like the Boa closure. Just be sensible, don’t yank on anything, and leave to wide open. 

If in doubt, check with Brian’s for their recommendations as they would have the last word.

Wow that’s a sick set
