stretching leather pants

[forgotten_aria]

So I bought these leather pants for $16.50 from ebay, and well, they're just a little too small for me, which is not quite what I was hoping for, but it's the right direction because I want form fitting, body hugging leather pants. So here's my question: Is there a proper way to stretch out leather pants? Should I just wear them and push their limits by a little, or do I treat them with something or get an artifical stretcher or anything like that?

The product is Shoe Stretch, which smells like isopropal alcohol.
At risk of it not being water friendly, the alternative is to put it in a bathtub of water, soak it gently, put it on wet, and let it dry.
