Overview

Built for handgun carriers who want flexibility in how they wear a sidearm, this holster supports four carry positions: inside-the-waistband with a metal clip, outside-the-waistband vertical draw, horizontal small-of-back, and cross-draw. The thumb break adds a secure retention step while keeping the draw straightforward for everyday carry or range use. Made with certified American Heavy Native Steerhide, it is sized for a wide list of compatible pistols, including several Glock, Ruger, Smith & Wesson, Sig Sauer, Springfield, and Taurus models. For users who value multiple carry options in one holster, it offers a practical setup without unnecessary complexity.

Considerations & Trade-offs

  • Designed for a wide list of handgun models, but fit still depends on matching the listed frames and similar sizes rather than universal compatibility.
  • The four carry configurations add flexibility, but each setup may require different positioning and adjustment to suit the user’s carry preference.
  • The thumb-break retention style offers added security, yet it also introduces an extra step during the draw compared with an open-top holster.
  • Made with certified American Heavy Native Steerhide, so the holster may need some break-in before it settles into a preferred carry feel.
