Just recieved my costume by mail today.
It came with rubber type gloves that fit up the forearm.
my issue is that one hand is about 15% smaller than the other.
They are made of thick rubber (molded)
I need to stretch the one hand out...
any suggestions??????

Vegatable oil seems to be doing the trick.
I will follow up later if it works

Bought the costume from Horror Dome.
Thier advice was to slice it. The entire costume fit great with the exception of the left hand, which you can clearly see is way smaller that the right hand.
spoke with the owner of the company. He said it was not his problem, because he felt i was too fat for his design. even though the rest of the costume fit perfectly... oh well live and learn .

Try dipping the glove in recently boiled water to soften the material. Be very carefull when you put it on to stretch it out though because it will be hot. The trick is to heat the material enough to make it elastic then when it cools some stretch it out.

The oil trick seems to be workin...ever so slowly, it seem like it might work.
the forarm area was my big concern. I found a tapered plastic bottle and keep forcing it down a little at a time. I also heated it with wifeys hair dryer, rubbed more oil on it and let it cool. I just hope it stays and does not recoil back to its original shape.
I do appreciate the advice. if thid doesent work... I will be boiling it next!

That really sucks that the vendor is saying it's not his problem. So much for customer service (the pic speaks for itself - that is a defective glove molding).

I'd like to suggest you post a merchant review over in the reviews section - to warn others that are considering this vendor to either order waaaaaay early or steer clear as they won't make good on defective products.

That would be the LAST order that company got from me after being treated that way. That one glove is *clearly* much smaller. Hope your oil trick works.

What cheek that they said you were too fat! They should handle customer enquiries better. Hope the oil trick works out for you

What an arse you had to deal with. It's clear the glove is much smaller so if their quality control is so poor imagine what else they pawn off that they would say isn't their problem.

This so called businessman doesn't understand sales industry statistics that says for every one dissatisfied customer you lose 20 sales simply by word of mouth.

They will never get my business.
