Looking for the all day comfort holster for a G26.
Anyone have opinions on crossbreed?

I have one for my XD I am itching to wear OUT all day, have to wait until January though:(
87 days
Looks well Made.
Seems nice enough.
It's a very good iwb holster. I just hated wearing two pant sizes larger. I've worn mine for over a year now and it's still very sturdy.
I've had my crossbreed supertuck "Horsehide" for over 3 years now for my Xd45C and love it, very comfortable and durable. Be sure to get a quality gun belt also, this makes all the difference. Supertuck makes a good belt, as does the "The beltman"...

I've had mine for about 3 years and it is an extremely comfortable holster! Highly recommended. :)
get em, they're decently comfy for a cc holster. they don't feel like nothing is there (at least for me) it just spreads the weight evenly around on your waist.

I've had my crossbreed for about a 1.5 years and it's worked great. Very comfortable, great load distribution, easy draw and have never had any problem with the gun coming lose. Like a few other people on this thread I cary a service size XD .40. I'm 6' @185lbs so I don't have a lot of "hiding" room, but this does a great job of concealment. You have to wear a little bit bigger size pants, but I don't recommend going too much bigger because the jeans help keep the gun tight to you. Also, as mentioned earlier, a good belt is a must.
Good luck.
I used one for my XD40, I even shot IDPA with it. I had a bit too much love handles and it was uncomfortable sometimes. Now that they are mostly gone, I don't feel it. Although, I now carry a .45 SIG 1911 Revo Carry and don't have a super tuck for it. argh...

Daily carry, very comfortable. Not as easy to put on/take off but worth it once it's on. One size larger pants recommended.

I got a Crossbreed belt and a Crossbreed super tuck holster and I love it, you can choose to get the combat cut on it for ease of draw, they let you know that it may not be as comfortable though, if the combat cut is as comfortable as mine is I can just imagine how comfortable they are without the combat cut. Expensive but well worth every penny.
Great holsters... wear in after about 2 weeks of wear. Get the horse hide though, wears better. Like most guys, I've had mine for years. While I don't still use it (go figure) it's a gear piece of gear. They generally have fantastic customer service. The wait times aren't horrible when compared to the likes of Raven Concealment or Peters Custom Holsters. The competition is the comp-tac holsters - http://www.comp-tac.com/catalog.php?cPath=28 - they too are worth a look and have about the same price tag with a generally shorter turn around time.

I know a guy in the springs that makes crossbreed style holsters. They are cheaper than Crossbreeds, and he makes them for you custom, to fit your particular firearm. I use mine every day for work, and I am getting more for my other pistols as well. Check out this link-http://www.co-ar15.com/forums/showthread.php?t=25589&highlight=nogaroheli
and this one:

I think you will like the custom aspect as well as the general overall comfort and price.

I have a Crossbreed, which I like and have a more expensive CB like holster from Tucker Gun Leather (http://rlcompanyusa.stores.yahoo.net/index.html) called The Answer that I like a lot more. It has a backing covering the rivets so the only thing touching your skin is soft leather. Both wear about the same. I would recommend either, but if you have the money I would go with the Tucker.
I just posted in General Discussion (because I didn't see this post) that I went to the CB website to order another one and it seems their prices have gone up since I got my last one. So, after some searching I think I am now going to get the Kingtuk (http://www.usgalco.com/HolsterPT3.asp?ProductID=4106&CatalogID=7) from Galco. It's the same style, looks like much better leather and you can get it on MidwayUSA for $47, much cheaper then the CB and you can have it next week instead of in 4 weeks. I'll let you know what I think of it when it arrives.
I also have the UDC Ultra Deep Cover from Galco and I love it for a quick tuck and go holster. Easy on, easy off.

I switch between my Crossbreed and my TT Gunleather; both are very comfortable.
