Breaking in Leather faster!?

I have a very thick typical biker leather that I want to wear. It's finally starting to get cold where I live but since my jacket isn't broken in, it's very stiff! How can I break it in as fast as possible?

Keep it soft with a balm, like Doc Marten's wonder balsam. You can also wear it when you're chillin' indoors...kinda bend your elbows...sit with it zipped. Truth is, if your biker jacket is like mine, really heavy, it may be pigskin...which takes years to break in. Softer leathers are much easier. :/

I'm not sure what kind of skin it is. I got it from angryyoungandpoor. That's a great idea to wear it inside, thank you!!

I got a leather jacket (lamb) and it only took a week to break in. if you wear it a bit youll be ok.

Lamb is the easiest to break in. Mine took just a few weeks. The thickness of the hide determines the ease in which leather will break in. I'd love to see it!
