How do you break in a new holster?

OK, so I'm going with the freezer bag method and no oil. Thanks for the great info. And of course wearing and using it.

Yep No Oil! Why do something to soften a new holster. Good holsters are supposed to be rigid and stay open for easy, safe, one handed reholstering.

I am sitting here at the desk doing a little work, reading INGO, and watching Elmo's World on YouTube with my 3 year old daughter. (Yes all of that at once. I have a really big monitor.) It occurred to me that I am in fact breaking in a new holster right now. I got it last week. First thing I did was put it on and went out and mowed my lawn. (I think there is another thread somewhere talking about carry while mowing.) Nothing better then sweating up a new holster to break it in! Today I am wearing it around to do the same thing. Next step will be to draw the gun over and over again.
