IWB holsters keep getting better

doesnt really look any different than any other iwb holster. the only real difference is it looks like its all leather. i bought one of these White Hat Holsters back in november and have been using it almost daily with no discomfort or any problems, plus i dont have to buy a whole new holster to carry a new gun with it, just pay $15 and get a new kydex shell for it.
 
nice looking holster i like the color too i also like the arm a dillo one someone posted but i think i'm going to go with a crossbreed my birthday is coming up next month so i'll see if i get lucky

Ya can't go wrong with a Crossbreed, I have two. Very comfortable just make sure your pants are at least one size up or maybe two from what you normally wear. That goes for a belt too---add a couple inches. One thing I wish was that xbreed's leather was more pliable.

Have a happy birthday!

It looks good .......... though I have some doubts as to it's practical durability.

Yeah if the leather is thin. I didn't see anywhere stating the opening was reinforced at all either. I think I would rather have that than the wear kydex has against metal
 
I've already got a Tommy Theis, a Mitch Rosen, and a very old and well used Strong IWB that they probably don't even make anymore, but hey I can always try one more. Then I'll have four good holsters, still need 3 more to change everyday!

The biggest allure to the hybed holsters is low cost and short wait times due to ease of manufacture, this new Bianchi holster by it's looks is thin leather and as you note the mouth is not reinforced. But what Bianci knows is that many folks put a lot of weight to aesthetics over function when making purchasing decisions of similar products. I prefer leather to kydex for most applications and the holsters I make are of a more traditional design out of heavy 8/9oz leather.

Just ordered an Old Faithful stage 3 kit a couple days ago (was planning on waiting a while, but they were on sale) for $38.95. Pretty good price break for just screwing the parts together. Looks to be virtually identical to the CrossBreed, but tension on the Old Faithful can be adjusted.

Now that's a nice holster and more my style. Btw, I like your "signature". I vaguely remember the conversation I was having with him at the time when he said that. Wonder if he went to another gun forum or changed his name to something else and is still haunting us.
 
I think I have finally found the perfect concealed carry holster. I recently bought and received the Versacarry IWB carry system for my Walther PK380. It is so damn simple I don’t know why no one had thought of this sooner. No bulk, provides a secure yet easy to retrieve holstering, comfortable (even on my 220 pound body) and is very concealable. You have got to check it out at Versacarry :: The Original ZeroBulk Holster.
 
I ordered my versa carry last week-end during their promotion. I hope to receive it today. I agree with your opinion of its simplicity. I am looking forward to using it.

I like my old faithful holster. Comfortable to wear, easy to adjust the belt hooks to have the gun ride where you want it, and easy to assemble. Good quality leather that is smooth against the skin, kydex is easy to form to your gun if you follow the heating instructions. Link Removed
