You need my opinion!!!
I just got this and I've never had a glove this nice..... I'm a glove newb and I wear that tag proudly. My question is.... how to break it in. Do I need to condition it, if so with what? I know how to physically break it in, just don't want to mess up the leather with the wrong conditioner.

Just play catch with it. As much as you can. And when the leather gets kinda dry, condition it. DON'T overdo it. When the glove's not in use, keep it wrapped up with a ball in the pocket.

this^^^^ and if it were mine...id only break it in the traditional way of playing catch only. May take longer but will pay off in the long run. Good luck

^^ what he said. i broke my gmp7c in without any aids. just played catch with it for a few weeks and it was GTG. it's broken in nicer than i could have possibly imagined.

when i do condition it, i use mizuno strong oil. just a little dab on the finger (little bigger than pea sized) will do each area fine. it will temporarily very slightly darken it, but after a little time it returns to it's natural color.

would the vinci glove conditioner be gtg with this glove. Is it going to lose that suede feeling when I condition it?

the Vinci conditioner is basically Vaseline ..personally, I'd avoid any petroleum based products ..even though it's cheap, my go-to product is Franklin's Dr. Glove ..it's basically a lanolin foam ..doesn't leave any residue or film on your glove and does the job.. also won't affect the color at all
