My experience (which counts for precious little as I don't know much) is that when I bought my gloves I ensured they weren't too tight from the off-set. I don't think excessively tight gloves are necessary if they're textile ones. Leather I'd expect to stretch but I wouldn't want to stretch my textiles incase the seams let water in.

I have already used leather conditioner on them and with them been Gore Tex I am unsure about rubbing alcohol (I do prefer to drink my alcohol) The best fitting glove I have ever had are a cheap £15 textile that are fantastic in deep winter riding but protection is minimal. I had an accident in the 80's and now have scared on my hands that need more protection from the cold due to pain. But hay it looks like the long wear to break them in correctly.
