I picked up a Springfield XDS last week and am now in the market for an IWB holster for it.Price isn't really a factor but would like to see some pros and cons from others that carry this pistol IWB.

I got mine from Justin at eight2ten.com. Good guy and quality holster. I'll upload a pick tonight when I get home. Have a couple IWB holsters he made and like them all.
His design is a single clip Kydex which is what I prefer. Some people like the larger Hybrids with 2 clips and leather backing but I think the single is easier to get on and off.

I recently bought an Old Faithful for my full size 1911A1. Extremely comfortable. I bought the assemble yourself kit so the price was very nice also.

Wow just checked out some of his work and it all looks very well done. Still would like to see the pics of what he made for you. Thanks a bunch for the suggestion.

I carry an SR9c in an Old Faithful holster. Great price and after a few days of breaking in, I can't even feel it.

Contact Insta, (Williams Gun Leather) he is a member here. Great IWB holsters, I have 4 of his products for my 1911's, he makes a large variety for most handguns including revolvers.

I have been using a in waist band Galco K129L STO226. It is a rough out that stays where you put it. I bought the XDs because it was thin, the Galco is also thin and very conforming to me and the weapon in very little wear time. It is a single clip. It does take some breakin time but now that it is formed to me and the weapon it is extemely comfortable. Its very reasonably priced. I am not a big Springfield fan but I really like the XDs. Hope that was useful.

Stealth Defense Strut Holsters has a new concept for concealed carry rigs that provides great comfort and concealment


Interesting design for sure. Looks very difficult to draw from though being so high up on the body. Lot of clothing to lift up to access the gun.

I bought the Crossbreed Supertuck Deluxe or my M&P40, I really like how it spreads out weight of the firearm so it is really comfortable on your side. I can wear it all day with no worries, even sitting down on the couch or in the truck.

I picked up one from Longhorn Holsters. He is here in Colorado and not only hand makes all the holsters he sells but will work with you on a custom holster and make sure it is what you want and are comfortable with for a decent price. I picked mine up from him for $40.

I carry in a Comp-Tac MTAC Minotaur. Pretty comfortable. I had to modifiy the clips because they kept printing in my rear pocket.
