A quick reset (ie: one which takes very little time) would happen only on
items which didn't have much of a specific fit to them in the first
place (weren't worn much, or had a few different people wear them, but
only for a short period of time).

If he lent them out for an hour, that's not long enough to change the fit
by 1, let alone by 30 (which would bring the fit up to 0, and reset the
owner to Ackbar :) Look again - I had suggested that the change in fit be
+1/MUDday, not +1/MUDhour.

Hmmm... on extremely pliable materials like leather, they'd remold to fit
whoever pretty quickly, which, at least to me, means the leather would
also quickly "forget" who had worn it most recently. On extremely
unpliable materials (like wood), it would take considerably longer to
change a fit to someone else (but, but the same token, it would take a
long time to establish a fit from brand-new, too).
