Overview

Built for handgun carriers who want flexibility in how they carry, 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 design adds a retention step while keeping the setup straightforward for everyday carry or range use. Made with certified American Heavy Native Steerhide, it is sized to fit 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, no-frills solution without unnecessary bulk in the description.

  • Thumb break retention adds an extra layer of security for everyday carry.

Considerations & Trade-offs

  • The 4-way carry setup adds versatility, but it also means you’ll want to choose the carry position carefully for your setup and use case rather than treating it as a single-purpose holster.
  • Fit is listed for a range of specific handgun models and similar frames, so compatibility should be verified against your exact pistol before purchase.
  • The thumb-break design offers added retention, but it also introduces an extra step on the draw compared with an open-top holster.
  • The holster is described as using a metal clip for IWB carry, which may be a consideration if you prefer a different attachment style for daily use.
