I have found that some of the best products don’t pop on a google search. Sometimes the name is similar to a larger company or product, and sometimes small business owners are smart enough to not grow order numbers faster than they can produce the product.
Anyway, what are some of the best holsters you guys have found that are seldom known of?
I recently found ShapeShifter concealment and placed an order for an AIWB light bearing holster. Custom colors and all that (they offer an original Jurassic park theme that’s pretty damn cool)
Price in the same neighborhood as most other quality kydex companies like T1C, C&G, Tennicor, etc. ready for the kicker………. 5 day lead time for custom orders!!!!! Granted, I am difficult in most things and this was no different so of course I ordered some **** that’s gonna take about a week rather than 5 days but the owner has been in touch about it and promises to pad my package accordingly for the extra wait time. I really think I found a winner here. Will post an update when I receive it.
I just realized how long winded I am sometimes sorry. Anyway, you guys know any other companies that fly low but soar high like this?

Just checked them out. The leather lined one could be interesting if the leather and kydex don’t separate and the double layer doesn’t make it too thick or bulgy.

Kusiak Leather. Stiff and as thin as kydex, but leather. Most options available. I have both IWB and OWB from them. My number one favorite so far.

If that is what your looking for give Urban Up IWB/OWB a look. I have 3 of them and they are thin!! and durable!! Leather lining is well done. G21 Gen4 with RMRII for 6 months and no holster wear showing. If you no likey they will accept return and refund your $$$. I've found them to be solid.

I have enough holsters right now, but if I was in the market, which I may be this Spring, there's quite a few solo guys out there that make very high quality holsters in their spare time. It's best to seek them out on gun forums. I found a really good maker on Kahr forum years ago, and one on 1911 forum awhile back as well. They did much better work than the likes of Milt Sparks or other places that went from being custom, to becoming holster factories.

I got a really nice soft lined P228 holster from such a maker about 6 years ago, it's flawless. I ordered my last Sparks when they quit making the HR-LTD over ten years ago. Now they just want to churn out average unlined holsters for custom prices (or two or three times what Bianchi charges) and I won't be giving them any of my business anymore. I sold my Summer Special 2's and VM-2's a long time ago and haven't looked back.

Depends on what you want the holster for and what will go in it. I have many holsters, by different manufacturers. I have/had Alessi holsters. Lou passed many years ago, and his holsters are hard to come by. His ankle holsters are the best.

I originally ordered a macro holster from them. A month went by and it didn't ship, I asked for a refund. I got the Muddy River in 3 days which was the same case for the other 5 I have bought from him over the last year.

Stingray, elephant, and hippo? Looks like Cartel level work there...

I would have thought the elephant hide would be contraband, like ivory.

All of that is head plate gator, though I have some elephant on a couple of holsters. One Ostrich by Matt del Fatti.

If you're partial to holsters (and more) of exotic hides, check out Hill Country Leather's facebook page. Really nice quality and variety. I bought a nicotine colored elephant hide holster and mag pouch for a Colt Commander years ago.
