David –
Ordered the holster and had it delivered within 10 days. Fits My P224 nicely and also fits my M&P .40 Shield. Great fit and comfort with the Clinger pad.
Jeff –
Very Nice sturdy holster hold’s your gun in place easy in and out very comfortable
dan.cunningham9 –
Nice holster for my S&W M&P Shield. Comfortable and secure. My brother and I have dealt with Clinger several times. Great company to do business with.
Kevin Dahlke –
Great holster. Slips nicely into my waistband. Feels comfortable and non-obtrusive. Made to fit my Smith & Wesson M&P Shield. The additional padding makes the holster fell like it is not there at all. Love it!
dwgmeg2 –
Love this Holster, light comfortable and very versatile, add the cushion and what more can you ask for.
Will be ordering a few more.
David –
Great product, feels comfortable wearing.
Kurt R –
Great holster for my small gun. Light and easy to use.
ctedde00 –
For the max-9 , yes. Every one comes with red dot cut-out.
Stanley Chamallas –
Hi does the Gear Holster come automatically with the cut out for a red dot? For the Ruger Max 9, thank you Stan
Anthony P Passerini –
Best holster ever extremely comfortable and very durable
Matchbox –
So far so good. Like the adjustment and LH friendly. Not sure on durability cause I’ve only had it 2 weeks
Dave –
This is the best holster I have for comfort carting a full size 1911. Concealed very well. I am thinking of picking up the comfort pad just to try it out, although it isn’t really needed for me. I just like to try new things. Lol
J W –
Bought this holster for my wife her first along with cushion good fit
J W –
Great holster adjustable. Cushion a great addition
Basil Owen Bird –
Have Springfield XDE, took it out of package and used it. Added the pad later and it even felt better now want an OWB
David Keefe –
Best holster ever! So comfortable and so many position options
Njj –
Good quality holster with a ton of adjustability! Recommend!
TonyK –
My go to and favorite holster. Holds pistol at easy to access position, doesn’t print and very comfortable. So good I got one for my dad and he loves it to
Curtis McNeill –
The gear holster i purchased is the most comfortable holster I own ! I didn’t need to use the cushion it’s great without it ! Love it !
Ted G –
The most comfortable of my holsters fits perfectly with my canik tp9 sc and is very adjustable.
Alejandro –
Very Good
T Nantucket –
Bought this holster with the clinger cushion for my canik tp9sc, love the comfort and adjustability……well worth the money. Clinger would be my go to holders for my other handguns-
Tom –
This holster with the cushion makes for a very comfortable pairing. Not an issue with the holster itself which is excellent but carrying a full frame model in front can be challenging to bend and sit. The holster makes it as comfortable as it can be and it is very secure.
DeWayne Davenport –
Great retention holster and very comfortable. The clinger pad is a great addition to the kydex holster, makes it highly comfortable for all day carry. The size and versatility of the holster make it one of the best bargains out there for a kydex platform
William Gervavio –
Loved it, had a lot of holsters to choose from. Glad I chose a Clinger. I am looking to get one for each of my hand guns.
ray guthrie –
Love my holster. Easy on and off holds the gun securely. At a great price also
CP93 –
Despite needing a bit of sanding to chamfer around the drill holes for converting to LH, this is the most comfortable P365 holster I have found so far. I even canceled an order for a D* H* holster after trying this one. Easy on, easy off, holds securely, and you can almost forget you’re wearing it. Recommended.
MICHAEL –
This is my third Clinger holster. I tried several other holsters for my Sig 365 XL with Romeo Zero and none of them worked to my satisfaction, On one I had to cut the kydex to permit the the red dot and gun to fully seat in the holster. On another there was a big ledge where the belt clip mounted to the holster making it next to impossible to put the holster on without taking my pants off.
With the Clinger the holster’ sleek and slim design means I can slide in on and off quickly and easily. The new pad makes it comfortable to carry all day long.
I am a handgun instructor and carry permit instructor and I need to carry every day. I have recommended Clinger holsters to many of my students.
LD –
Great holster for my Glock 19. Love the in waist band fit. Used for two weeks, fantastic!
Peter A –
I find the gear holster to be one that is easy on and off, comfortable. Great value for the price.
John Thamm –
Simple secure and comfortable!
Todd C Tesch –
Phenomenal versatile product.
Frank –
I looked at a lot of holsters before I purchased the Gear Holster. Very comfortable in the appendix carry, and very adjustable. The price is great especially with the cushion.
Michael –
Did a lot of research before I purchased this holster for my Taurus G2c and I am so glad I did. Great quality and performance for a minimal price and the cushion makes it a joy to wear concealed.
Shane –
Quality is very good. No rough edges. Very positive lock to the firearm and the clinger pad is comfortable all day long. This is made for retention and comfort. Hands down the best holster I’ve had for EDC and comfort daily and I have tried a bunch of other holsters.
Keith –
Very good service, Holster is real comfortable and very good quality material.
Darell –
Very comfortable. Excellent quality.
DARIO STEVE DIAZ –
A most excellent product. I have a few
CJ Breay –
I’m one year into my CCW. My Clinger is by far my most used holster. I have three IWB and two OWB of various manufactures, but the Clinger IWB is my goto. It is very comfortable with my G43X. Thank-you!
John Moore –
Great holster very comfortable for all day wear
Matt –
Love this holster, especially combined with the cushion. Very comfortable and keeps good retention. I also had issues with delivery (all problems were with USPS). Clinger Holster’s customer service was fantastic. They worked with me, and got the issue resolved. I highly recommend Clinger Holsters.
John W –
Great holster. It fits my Walther PPS M2 perfect. I tried it for a day without the Clinger Cushion and I did not think it was uncomfortable. I added the Clinger cushion and it made a difference. I am pleased with the Clinger Gear holster and cushion combo.
Karl N –
Beautiful fit with the M&P Shield 9, adjustable, well-made, and comfortable. Works Apex and 4:00 o’clock positions. Only problem isn’t the holster’s fault. I need less of ME inside my waistband so I can fit the Gear IWB holster in there, too!
Kyle –
I really like this holster, the positions you can conceal it with “what I think is an ingenious clip design” is fantastic! It is also hard for me to find a holster for the weapon I carry “fns 9C” so when I found this one I ordered it right away. Holster feels good and secures the weapon nicely, I would buy this again in a heart beat!!
J.R.D. –
I just installed my tuckable low ride clip and clinger cushion to my IWB holster…. FANTASTIC! This makes the holster very hidden and comfortable. Thank you for taking concealed carry serious for us with CCW permits. Will recommend your holsters and products to others.
GERALD OBRIEN –
This is my second purchase from Clinger and could not be more satisfied. I had my doubts about a concealment rig for a full size 1911 but am quite pleased with both fit and function. My normal carry is sub compact 9mm but still favor the old .45
Every contact I have had with this company has been above expectations.
John W Ebert –
Great fit and very comfortable to wear. This is my new daily holster.
Bill W –
You guys hit it out of the park. Fully adjustable holster. I love it! Order the cushion. You will appreciate it. I gave it 5 stars because it beats the competition. I would like to see you offer a claw for the single clip version though.
GEORGE M SIANO –
Strong belt clip but easy to clip onto your belt. Did not purchase the cushion but still very comfortable under a T-shirt against bare skin. Lots of adjustments to cant and ride height to suit your carry preference. Highly recommended IWB holster.
Chuck W –
Worked well for a Canik TP9 Elite SC. Mag pouch is nice for pocket or even shirt pocket, at least for 12-rd mag. Holster was comfortable while driving – almost disappeared. Have worn driving, sitting, walking (chewing bubble gum?) – works well. Would order for another firearm and also recommend to others.
Klay Carper –
With the Clinger Cushion this is a very comfortable holster. Use it daily. I only wish I could tuck in my shirt.
Robb Meader –
Got this for my Hellcat OSP and I opted for the Clinger Cushion because I’m not a small person. The holster with the cushion is so comfortable I feel like I’m missing something when I do not conceal carry. Absolutely love this holster, comfortable, no visible print, which is saying something when you carry at 4 o’clock with love handles.
Phil McClarren –
Fit the gun well. Locks in tight. Comfortable to wear. Love it
Robert Eller –
I have a Kahr CT40 and I have tried a lotta different holsters for it. Hated them all. Too bulky, poor retention, way too expensive. Lots of issues. Took a chance with this one and love it. Does exactly what it should. Its comfortable, not bulky. You can’t tell that its there when you look at me. The adjustable cant allows me to fit it so it lays against me just right so the grip stays tucked close and doesnt bulge under my shirt. I wear a t-shirt, so I didn’t want the cushion. Nice, very nice.
Alan Lacquement –
This is Clinger holster number Eight. I gave this one to my daughter in law when
she purchased her new pistol. She had been carrying one of mine in a Clinger Gear
Holster and loved it. What can I say. Clinger Holsters are the best. Quality Holsters from
Quality People. Thanks Again.
Don W Curran –
real comfortable for my concealed carry wheel gun. Work real good too!
Cameron –
Like many who carry, I have a drawer full of unused holsters that simply didn’t work for me because they are uncomfortable, don’t adequately conceal, have fussy retention systems, or are difficult to draw quickly.
Enter the Clinger Gear Holster with the Clinger Cushion. Carrying my Glock 19 with RMR, Glock 43, or Taurus G2C, I almost forget the weapon is there. Comfort excellent, concealment excellent, adjustable retention excellent, adjustable cant for fast smooth draw excellent.
If you choose this holster, PLEASE put blue Locktite on the screws holding the inner gear to the holster body. Twice I’ve had holster and weapon fall to the ground while very physically active. Those two screws had worked loose, allowing the hook on the clip to release my belt and the holster then spit out. Locktite completely solved the problem. The center gear screw has never loosened.

This is the only holster I will use for all day concealed Carry.
Mike Smith –
So…four stars? Okay, this is a 5 star holster for a couple of reasons, which I’ll cover in a second. I dropped a star because they don’t offer a “claw” and the retention holes are not standard, meaning after-market claws don’t fit.
Now, with both the hinge and the gear holsters, and a comfort cushion, this is a very good rig. I bought the package deal originally, and have purchased two more holsters since (for different handguns). The new holsters work with all my existing products from the original package, awesome!
The holsters themselves are very good, I’ve had my original two holsters for many months now, and they look brand new, they work like brand new.
Offer a claw!
John Runfola –
Excellent and flexible product. Exceeded my expectations.
Vernon Dale Snelson –
it’s a great holster! Comfortable! Only issue i have is I have a large frame CZ 75 and it rides a little bit too high to conceal well when carrying appendix
Randy Johnson –
Great holster, I wear at 3 to 4 o’clock while sitting and driving and it’s the most comfortable holster I have found. If I had anything to criticize it would be the angle adjustments
Vodka1 –
Bought one and loved it’s adaptability. Due to physical problems, I decided on cross draw, after trying other carry positions. I highly recommend Clinger Holsters (the grippy holster holds my guns securely in pockets in jackets very well too).
Bought a second gear holster for my nephew. He liked his very much too, and wears it IWB at the 4 o’clock position. We both highly recommend Clinger Holsters.
John Pugh –
Very comfortable with the cushion.
Rodney Lacey –
Great holster, comfortable and with many options to carry.
Michael Matulonis –
This holster is the best holster out of all the other brands I’ve tried. It is comfortable, light, and secure. I am confident that my gun won’t fall out when adjusted correctly. Great product!
Chuck S. –
I haven’t been able to carry using my new Clinger holster yet because I’ve having trouble finding a belt of all things during these late stages of COVID-19. But I have worn it around the house tucked inside my waistband several times giving it a test run in short bursts. I am impressed with both the comfort and the ability to adjust my holster, I usually appendix carry and I can now carry off my hip with the same holster if I chose to. The retention from the factory was set well and I can only see the gun falling out should I really take a hard tumble. Overall I’m very pleased and I get a good belt I will be using my Clinger holster every day.
Jan –
Gun fits great, and very adjustable. Haven’t carried yet, so can’t speak for comfort.
Juan B –
Great ideas on this holster which works great.
C Erb –
Perfect fit. All day comfort with cushion.
Ron –
I haven’t had to adjust the Gear yet but I REALLY like the clip. Nice and stiff, helps keep it secure and straight. It does take a little extra effort to remove the holster from my belt but I consider that a plus.
Christopher Inghram –
So I’m changing my review about the holster. I like the holster. I like how simple it is and how the cushion works. I wore it without the cushion for 2 days and then I wore with the cushion. The cushion gives it a little extra comfort. I think they could have finished the holes a little better but other than that not a bad little holster.
Matt Hook –
I had bought one previously for my beretta apx carry. I like it so much I got another one. Great holster good durability and great comfort with the clinger cushion
Andrew Estes –
Just bought my 4th and 5th Clinger holster, of these 4 have been the Stringray’s. The first was just over 4 years ago , but the quality has remained the same, yet the selection has continued to expand. I would recommend this model to anyone. I conceals very well on my body type and is very comfortable. I hope Clinger continues to keep this holster type in their lineup.
Josh Norman –
This is the best holster I have ever used. It is durable, unbelievably comfortable,and fits my gun perfectly. My gun fits perfectly and the adjustable retention is perfect.
Nick Breunig –
Worn it around the the house, still waiting on my permit to carry but so far I like it
Henry –
I love my Gear Holster! It is the only holster I’ve found that is comfortable and conceals well. I have a ton of holsters in my garage that I tried to get along with. Each and every one of them fell short in one way or another.
Not my Clinger Holster. It’s absolutely perfect!
Cherry –
Dang this thing is good. It’s a very high quality holster! Perfect fit and function.
Adam Hall –
I like it with the cushion. It’s extremely comfortable. I bought an extra for my dad. He likes it even more than I do. It holds my Sig P365 and his Hellcat very very well.
Judge –
I have many Clinger Holsters. They never disappoint. They make high quality holsters. The best part is that it doesn’t take 2 weeks to get it in the mail like other holster companies do.
Arthur Raslauskas –
Most comfortable holster i have tried.
Tried two IWB holsters from other brands, this one stays with me!
Thomas Redd –
I have the Gear Clip that came with my IWB Hinge Holster. I used it to convert the holster into the Gear holster. For me it’s better because it goes on and off so much easier and faster.
Tim Smith –
Awesome holster, fits my gun perfectly, is very comfortable to wear even without the cushion. The cushion only makes it better.
Steven Cochran –
wonderful holster, not to mention how hard it is to find a holster for the str-9 by stoeger. Stoeger don’t even have a iwb holster for their own gun! I got the Gear hoslter, it is very comfortable, even without the gear cushion which also brings an astonishing level of comfort for conceal carry. Thanks for being so innovative Clinger holsters!
John Oravis –
Perfect fit holster at a great price for a hard-to-find/hard-to-fit handgun – a Walther CCP M2 9mm in my case. I also bought the Clinger cushion, and that was a plus. I’m glad that I did.
Regular USPS first class mail took its delivery time for it though, from just one state away.
Izzy –
Nobody can tell when I’m packing heat. For those of you in Rio Linda, that means carrying a pistola. This holster conceals very well. Get the cushion too. It’s well worth the upgrade.
constructiongus –
This is my 1st clinger holster and I love it. I ordered the Gear Holster for my Steyr M9-A1. Mold is perfect which makes for a great fit. I adjusted it so that it is tight enough to keep my Steyr extremely secure, yet easy to draw.
Ordered this holster with the Clinger Cushion. The Clinger Cushion is so worth the investment. Extremely comfortable. I highly recommend it.
This holster rides a bit higher than I wanted but still feels great. I am going to order the Low Ride Belt Clip to have more fitment options.
I’m so impressed by Clinger that I am also going to get the Comfort Cling holster. I highly recommend Clinger holsters!
Corey Callahan –
I have yet to purchase my holster but had the privilege of trying my son’s out and I loved it. I give five stars due to the obvious quality and comfort of the holster and because Clinger is one of the very few companies to make a holster that is worth having for my S&W 669/6906. I will be ordering one within the next several days. I think I’ll get two. My Canik TP9SF Elite deserves a great holster as well. Keep up the great work Clinger.
Terry B –
Very comfortable and the multiple adjustments are great.
Jose Torres –
This holster is precisely made with an attention to detail and it’s not as bulky as others I’ve had. My only complaint and it’s nothing major, is the clip which I think is a bit large and makes it hard to wear it just right in aiwb position. But all in all I’m very satisfied.
Cliff H Flanagan –
This is a very good holster. I was able to adjust the cant to my liking, which was extremely important to me. Wore it over 10 hrs and 450 miles the first day I had it and could not ask for a better product. Well pleased and highly recommend it.
Sean –
Simple, easy, no muss, no fuss-what more could you want! Definitely worth it to get the cushion included when you order the holster, you won’t regret it.
Charles Osterhout –
This is the first IWB holster that really feels comfortable to me. Price point is great. P238 fits like a glove and snaps in for perfect retention. I am very happy with my holster.
locksmith2 –
Fits gun really good!
Jim –
Bought this for use with a Walther PPS M2 w/Shield RMSc optical sight.
Holster has a nice cutout for the optical site and fits perfectly. It’s comfortable to wear and is designed with various adjustments for retention and fit.
I’ve always had a preference for leather holsters but I am very happy with the Kydex holster.
Mike –
Fits my Canik TP9SF perfectly. No slop, no rattling around, and is comfortable to wear all day. I’m not a holster expert, but the quality on this holster is exceptional. Very happy with my purchase, and will look to Clinger for my future needs.
Michael –
I’d bought a “low cost universal holster” before this one. To paraphrase the saying, “Good holsters aren’t cheap, cheap holsters aren’t good.” My previous holster was a soft side, sort of neoprene type thing. It held the weapon fine, but once removed from the holster, it was basically impossible to get it back in without having to look at where the holster was, and use two hands to do it. I bought two Clinger Holsters for myself, one for my Smith and Wesson M&P Shield 9 and one for my .40 S&W Kahr CT40. Both holsters are comfortable, easy to put on and remove and putting the weapon back into the holster can be accomplished with one hand without having to look at where it is. I was so happy with both of those, that I purchased a third one, for my partner’s Glock Model 42, with the comfort pad. She hasn’t used it yet, but I’m sure she’ll be just as satisfied with it as I am with both of mine. Great products all.
mwisely –
Got this about a month ago and wear it all the time. I love how well my gun is kept solid in it and will not come out. I would tell anyone that they should buy one. I will buy several more for my other conceal carry guns.
Cris Montoya –
Fits my sexy tp9sf like a glove! This holster also stopped me from balding and put hair on my chest!
bruce –
purchased about a month ago, totally happy. purchased the cushion at same time, better deal if you get both The gun clicks into place, its very lite weigh. but what i like the most, is the clip. you can position this holster any way you want. I haven’t found this type of clip on others. this clip has so many settings to fit your needs on how you wear your gun. And it gives you the option to wear, conceal and open on right, and the same thing for the left side. Awesome product, thank you guys.
Paul Gueness –
BEST HOLSTERS EVER MADE!
What you get for the price of this holster you would expect to pay at least $30 more. I have other holsters from reputable companies and they don’t come close this company at all!! I have three of the Gear Holsters, and will be purchasing more! One for my Springfield XD mod2 one is for Sig 227 and another for my Sig P226. Let’s start with the holster, it has everything you would expect to see in a $100 holster. There are no sharp edges to cut or pinch you, they were all rounded off. This holster has two retention screws to make sure your weapon is secured while holstered. Not one retention screw like some other companies! There are pre-drilled holes on the other side of the holster. This is where the clip comes in. So it
can be worn on either side, for a left or right hand draw. By simply removing the screws and clip then replacing them on the other side of the holster. The clip can also be set for different cant positions by completely removing the screw and clip then positioning it in one of the several different position options. Also you could adjust your ride height, again by removing the screw and clip then replacing it in one of the pre-drilled holes. Like I said I have to Sig sauer’s both full size guns and weigh 43oz. I could adjust my ride height and be comfortable all day long! I carry on a daily basis anywhere from 10 to 15 hours and not once am I painfully reminded that I’m carrying either of my full size guns in the appendix carry position. Next the Clinger cushion, what a great addition to this already amazingly comfortable holster. Not only does it help with comfort it also wicks the sweat from your body. I absolutely love love love this holster! I strongly recommend any of the Clinger holster products to anyone who is looking to purchase a holster.
ray guthrie –
This was my second holster from clinger. I’m very happy with the fit and wearing oh the holster. I would recommend to a friend for sure. Great service even during this pandemic. Ty. Clinger employees.
David Fisher –
Excellent holster, fit and function is great. This my 4th Clinger holster. The cushion is incredible I bought one for each holster! Great products, prices and service.
LARRY j MCINNIS –
Awsome holster. Got it for my g2c fits great. I love the fact that i can put the clip on either side of the holster,so i can use it iwb/owb. Now if yall could make one for my 605 taurus poly protector 357.
JJ –
First time buyer and will not be the last. I received my gear holster and was very impressed with the quality of the product and I purchase the cushion and it really does feel like you aren’t wearing it at all.
Keep up the good work.
David R –
I love my clinger holster. From the moment I put it on its so comfortable and you can hardly tell you are wearing it. The wecushion on the side is much better than feeling your weapon pinching you.
David R –

EJM –
Hands down the best holster there is. The big win is that is very comfortable. Specially while driving or sitting at church. I got the safety version. The other feedback ; the service from this company is the excellent. Fast communication. I had ordered the wrong holster (non safety) my mistake. Sent an email and I had the correct one unless than 3 days..
Rick –
Love it. Very comfortable and conceals well. Love all the adjustments so you can set it up so it’s right for you. Highly recommend getting the cushion.
Jared –
Most comfortable Kydex holster that I’ve ever tried only complaint that I could have why I didn’t give it five stars I wish it had belt loop snaps
Evan J Green –
I have several Kydex holsters from other makers. My Clinger holsters for my Government Model 1911 and a Colt LW Commander are a perfect fit for those guns. Pistols are held securely with no movement inside the holster, yet the draw is easy. I highly recommend Clinger holsters. Quick shipping too!
Frank –
Carefully molded to a precision fit. I like that and positive “click” that tells me the pistol is seated in the holster. The gear is an innovative way to allow so many customized angle options that make for comfortable EDC. Happy to recommend a great product from a heartland company that also provided me with solid customer Q&A and product support.
Randal Forbes –
This holster is great. and the price is outstanding, but best of all, the customer service is simple the best.
Ordered the IWB holster first, and because I couldnt get it to fit me the way I wanted, I had to return, and then get the gear holster. Kaylah made the return, and new order pain free.
I recommend this company, and recommend the gear holster.
Outstanding service all around.
Don –
Gear Holster is great, fits my gun perfectly. Comfortable to wear, smooth edges and Great Retention. Looking forward to purchasing more as I add to my gun collection
Steven –
After having one recommeded to me by a friend, I desided to buy one for for my Springfield Hellcat. This is a very comfortable and built tough. I will definitely be a repeat customer
Ricky –
This holster is extremely comfortable. I especially love the price. Great quality.
Ray Ephrata –
Week 3 with my holster. Works great…carries nicely. Nice job!
Barry Leeks –
Very very comfortable. If you need a holster that’s more comfortable than anything you’ve yet tried, this is it. Get the Clinger Cushion. It’s what makes it so comfortable.
Ted –
I love how well designed this holster is. It takes 10 seconds to change the cant. It takes 1 minute to change the ride height. Plus I can swap it from lefty to right hand whenever I feel like it. It’s the best holster I’ve ever bought.
Ray Guthrie –
I’ve had my holster only a week, but I love it.I ordered it for my Glock 43. For those who don”t have one, it’s hard trying to find a holster for the Glock 43 with the green laser.So glad Clinger makes them for the Glock 43… thank you . Delivery was faster than expected…again ty.
The gun fit like a glove right out of the package. Quality craftsmanship at a good price.
Todd Davis –
Wow. That’s how I’d describe the Gear Holster. My last holster cost $20 more from a different company. I tried Clinger because that other holster felt like it didn’t fit well at all. Seems like an amateur built it. You can tell the one from Clinger was built by professionals. The quality is top notch. The fit is the best I’ve seen. Like I said wow.
Hale Pinky –
The price is right. Fits the gun really good too. I like how configurable it is. The comfort is out of this world.
Adam –
It’s good. 5 stars.
Jerry Allston –
All of my CCW holsters are now Clingers. The new Ruger LCPII model is small and holds the gun perfectly. I do wish you offered the holster without the ambidextrous mounting holes. Would rather have a smooth surface against my skin vs. the three holes. Otherwise love it.
Rich P. –
I received my Gear holster today, and also I ordered with my holster the Clinger Cushion. I must say I’m very impressed with the quality that went into this Gear holster you get more than your monies worth. The holster edges are amazingly smooth and rounded, no sharp corners at all. The clip is just what i have been looking for in a kydex holster it gives me the aggressive cant i always desired, however you can adjust to what ever cant you wish, the wheel and teeth lock in, and has a wider mouth that snaps onto your belt with that sound of confidence that your holster will not go anywhere. I might add the holster is just as comfortable with the cushion on or off. Also thank you for the extra velcro dots and wipes, and the hardware that came with the cost of the holster. With the versatility the Gear holster has I’m surprised It don’t cost at least 15.00 dollars more than I paid. For those of you that like a kydex holster you can’t go wrong with the Gear holster, it’s all positive. You guys and gals check out the wheel clip. I have been concealed carrying now 43 years And this holster is one the finest on the market.

It’s a fine Kydex holster it is.
Jimmy C –
I love this holster!!! It’s the most comfortable rig I’ve EVER had. Gone are the days of peeling my holster off as soon as I get home. I don’t even notice this holster is even on. Buy it. You WILL NOT regret it.
K.B. –
I love my new holster. The quality is better than expected.
Thank you
Alan251 –
I received the holster and it fits my pistol perfectly.
Thank you,

Received holster on Friday. Very nice. I immediately started to use it. Fits the 365 with light perfect. Nice work. I will be a return customer.
J.M. –
Got it today. THANK YOU!! EXCELLENT holster, just what I needed. I will definitely order again. John
T.G. –
This holster is exactly as advertised. The M & P 2.0 4.25″ fits perfectly.
One slight adjustment on retension and I was good to go.
I really like its light weight and slim profile that makes it great for concealed carry of a full sized pistol.
The belt clip is well designed and is easy to use.
I am going to have to order one for my full-house 1911.
Nathaniel Reed –
This holster is perfect for my new Springfield 911 and the reason it is perfect and actually better than other holsters for this particular pistol is that the 911 has an ambidextrous safety. The FULL sweat shield covers the RIGHT SIDE (outside facing) safety lever which prevents it being accidentally kicked off. This gives some piece of mind since this SA pistol is carried the same as my 1911, cocked & locked. Also nice to have the mag release covered also.
Dale E Newsom –
I recieved my Stingray holster today around noon and put it right to work. It’s now almost 6pm and I have to say that this IS the most comfortable IWB holster I’ve ever worn. I’m extremely pleased.
My sincerest thanks to y’all at Clinger.
ROB –
WOW! My holster arrived 2 days earlier than expected! Took it out of the pack, put in my G2C, easily adjusted the retention screws, and I was off to the races! I looked at a more $$ holster with high ride, low ride, and a host of different cant adjustments before I bought the Clinger. Glad I waited! The cant on my holster is perfect for me. It’s a well constructed holster, and the belt clip is solid and feels good. This thing is everything Clinger says it is. Safety and mag release are covered as well.And most importantly it’s comfortable. Even with the belt clip design pulling the grip in a little tighter than most, it’s comfy to wear.
If you are on the fence, just order a Clinger, you won’t be disappointed!
Wish you had an OWB for my P97DC.
Greg T –
This holster is not just good. It’s amazing. I recommend it to all my friends. Very comfortable.
W.V. –
At first I was a bit reluctant to buy from this company, but I tried out this holster for my Bersa and it conceals it wonderfully!! Very low profile, solid construction, very reasonably priced, and quick turn around time! Purchased another on for my Canik TP9SF Elite and it fits like a glove! I carry IWB appendix and it conceals the Canik’s thick slide perfectly.
Yasarugurlu –
This Clinger holster is the best holster I’ve ever owned. It fits my pistol like a glove. Very comfortable and high quality. 5 star Holster!
Reggie Lassiter –
Listen, hands down this is the best holster I’ve ever owned. The customer service was excellent too. I ordered the wrong size of Clinger holster that didn’t fit my mp shield. So I sent it back and got the right one. Clinger sent me a replacement holster and it fit like Champ. It is easy to conceal and very comfortable. I am very pleased with my purchase. Five stars from me.
Joe –
I absolutely love this holster. I carry a CZ as my everyday carry in this holster. I appendix carry this gun with no problems. Great customer service too. WOW you don’t see customer service like that any more. By the way I love the feel of the new version. Clinger you have me as a customer for life.
Valita –
Absolutely gorgeous. My ruger fits perfect. Nice and tight. Excellent quality.
Brent –
First kydex holster. Won’t be my last. Super Comfortable. It holds my Taurus g2c securely. Hides well at 4 o’clock carry. Like that holster covers thumb safety & mag release. Well done Clinger, you have another loyal customer. 5 stars.
Wayne Obenauer –
One of the best holsters for FN509. They are scarce, but this one fills the bill. And priced right.
Curtis K –
1 little adjustment to set the retention where I want it, and it was ready for use.
Less than 10 minutes from delivery till I was out of the house with it on. IWB carry as comfortable as my OWB Hybrid. Love the snap in retention, the complete coverage of the trigger guard and that it was made custom for my CPX-2. Clinger is my 1st choice for all future holsters.
David –
Excellent holster, extremely well made. Fits my M & P perfectly.
TIMOTHY MEYERS –
I recieved my Clinger holster about a year ago and can’t say enough about it. Easy on or off,good retention and concealable. I’ve abandoned the hybrids completely. I just stopped in to buy one for a newly acquired Ruger. Thank you Clinger!
David Infantine –
I would buy this holster in a heart beat if you made it to fit my Springfield XDs 3.3 with a Crimson Trace laser guard laser sight on it. I already have one but I want one that fits my gun with the laser sight.. Pay attention Clinger, Make it I’ll buy it!
Steve Martini –
Being a Designer myself, I reviewed all aspects of this holster before making my choice. That, plus the fact that no one else makes a holster for my gun which is the SAR K2P, 9mm AND I’m a lefty. I’m quite sure this holster will fit another Brand I own. If not, I’ll order a second. I kind of wanted it to be done in Black Carbon Fiber to go with my mag holster from another company but black solid black is OK as it will be IWB. I’m going to give this an early rating of Five as I’m quite sure it’s going to be a good fit with great performance.
Cbrebar –
Wow. This is the holster of all holsters. So compact but functions so well. I have finally found a IWB holster that not only fits my pistol but it fits me. Retention is great and can be adjusted to your preference. Clinger is also a great company. I bought this for my Ruger American Compact. They have had a holster listed for this pistol for a while but it was listed for the model without a manual safety. I have the manual safety. I asked and they made my holster fit my pistol with the safety. I ordered it on a Thursday and it was delivered the next Monday.I have other holsters from Clinger and they are all great but this one is my favorite.
Kenneth Sorensen –
I have a Clinger for my SIG 365 and it works great. I actually bought tho OWB also and use both, depending on my day’s activities. I’m looking for a
holster for my SIG 938 with the SIG laser attached. A Clinger would be a great backup holster with my 938 w/laser in it.
Ruuzulu –
I am relatively new to concealed carry having only been carrying for a year or so. I have been on the search for the right holster for me for a long time now. I initially went with an alien gear cloak tuck 3.0 for my shield and while the quality was there, the comfort was lacking for me. I eventually tried my girlfriends kydex holster and liked it much better than a hybrid holster. I’ve looked into kydex holsters from vedder, tulster, rawdog, and so many more and while I’m sure they are great holsters I think I found my holster brand when I ordered from Clinger. I carry an HK P30 now so it’s quite a thick gun to carry. Having wore this holster for a month or so now on a pretty regular basis I can say the quality and comfort is beyond anything I have worn before. I liked this one so much I ordered another one for my Px4 storm compact and the Comfort Cling. A review for those will be coming soon but as for this one, the quality to price ratio is insane. Great quality kydex, fits the gun perfectly and I have even taken a nap with it on because I really didn’t realize I was wearing it. The kydex is very smooth and polished. All edges are rounded. The idea that it can be swapped for a left or right handed person is a nice plus. I am completely happy with this holster. Concealability is great, Customer service seems to respond quickly to any questions you may have and the shipping is fast once they fabricate your specific holster. Just buy one and don’t look back.
John Kistler –
As a 49 yr old new to supporting 2A, I purchased my first ccw and got some training and wanted a good iwb holster. I watched a ton of reviews and Clinger came highly recommended. So I took a chance and man is it comfortable. Retention is great, smooth in/out….fit and finish is great. I absolutely love it. So much so I then bought the mag holder… Then the comfort cling. Every pistol I own moving forward will have a clinger holster.
Joshua Dalrymple –
Love my Clinger! My Glock 19 disappeared under a t-shirt with it. If Clinger only offered it to fit my Inforce aplc, I’d carry with it regularly.
John Sultana –
The Clinger holster which I have just purchased for my Glock 19 pistol is extremely comfortable to wear. It offers strong support to the weapon, good purchase & draw angle. The user need not be concerned about concealing his/her firearm.
Wade –
I already have three that I have been using for over two years, I wear all day long and don’t think about my holster at all, they are so comfortable that you easily forget you have one on. I just ordered my fourth for my newest gun and am sure it will be the same. Thanks
holt –
I have searching for a couple of years for iwb for my sw40ve. Nobody had the gun on their list. I found Clinger Holsters. They had the gun on the list, gave it a shot and ordered it. I’m glad I did. I love it. I was worried that I would not be very comfortable to carry all day. So far, it’s more comfortable to carry than the glock 43. I love it. Thank you and I will be telling everyone I know about clinger holsters.
Zach –
I’ve bought 3 holsters this year from other manufacturers. 1 had play in it and wasn’t as tight as it should be. 1 wouldn’t click into place. The other one was a humongous monstrosity of a holster.
THIS HOLSTER is amazing!!!
It is very small. It fit’s my gun perfectly and it has a satisfying click when I holster it. It’s VERY comfortable to boot.
Wilson –
It’s a great holster. I don’t see anything bad to say about it. Been using it for a few weeks now. It’s flawless.
Ricky Howard –
If there’s a better holster out there, I haven’t found it. Clinger is also the only Kydex holster I could find for my Shield 2.0 with integrated laser. They really knocked it out of the park.
T Bone 12 –
Love it!!
Mike –
My uncle bought this holster for me for my B-day. I love it. It’s my first “good” ccw holster. I’ve been using a nylon piece of junk from Walmart. I’ve tried 3 so far and they were all junk. I’m so glad my uncle showed me the right holster to use. I don’t have to worry about the bulkiness or clumsiness of carrying anymore. The Stingray pulls the gun in so close that nobody ever sees my pistol. I carry the Sccy cpx. It’s not as big as my uncle’s pistol but it’s not tiny either. I have no problems concealing it now.
Tom S –
Couldn’t ask for a better holster. Period. My wife will even use it every now and then and she’s the pickiest person I know when it comes to IWB holsters. (I’ll be getting her one for her birthday so she’ll quit using mine).
Sam –
My new favorite holster! I keep it adjusted to 15 degrees for behind the hip. I sometimes adjust the cant to 0 so I can carry AIWB. Best holster I’ve ever seen. So versatile.
Alan –
I am very active throughout my day. I’m constantly bending over, sometimes jogging, climbing up ladders, etc.
This holster does not move. It stays put. I know when I reach my hand behind my back it’ll be where I put it on that morning. It doesn’t rub or pinch either. It is a well behaved holster.
Bobby Reese –
I bought a Clinger holster for my Shield a couple months back. Long story short, I now own 4 of them. All my pistols just ride better in them. Perfect Holsters.
Ronnie Thorpe –
This holster is my new favorite. I threw out a bunch of my old ones after I tried this one out for a week. This holster does everything I’ve wished my other holsters would do but never did. It conceals my Glock 17 comfortably.
Vincent L. –
I have owned and carried in the Original Stingray, the Atom, the V2 and now the latest Clinger. This holster is nothing short of the “Ultimate Transformer”. With it’s new ambidextrous feature and options for setting preferred “cant” on either carry side, this answered all the needs for practical functions. The extended sweat shield on both sides is magnificently formed and does not encumber anything. This Kydex IWB V3 with all its new appointments has set the new gold standard and may possibly never be surpassed.
Jim –
Can’t complain. Does what it is supposed to do. Conceals my Taurus nicely. Helps that I have a set of love handles that the full size grip molds into ;)
Steve –
Well made holster. I especially liked the extra spacers and screws of different lenghts so that you can adjust the fit and retention pressure exactly to your liking. Great idea to include these with the holsters.
Jacob –
I got my Clinger holster immediately after getting a new pistol. I have 3 of these now. I guess I’ll have 20 if I keep buying new pistols. This holster conceals really well. It’s very comfortable too.
Zx1977Wilson –
Clinger is my favorite holster maker. No doubt about it. I got tired of holsters that didn’t conceal well, weren’t comfortable, and that were frankly huge. I don’t need a holster that wraps from my hip to my spine. You talk about collecting some sweat. Clinger’s design is smarter, simpler, and easier to get on. I can get my holster on in 5 seconds now instead of 5 minutes.
Look no further. Clinger is as good as you’re going to find.
Phillip Kline –
I love it to the moon and back. It’s the perfect minimalist holster! This beats Vedder, Blade-tech, blackhawk, and all those other guys hands down. It just plain outclasses the other holster brands out there. I was a plain-clothes officer for a few years and 2 of those other brands were not at all conducive to a good concealment holster.
One of them did not have adjustable retention and was too difficult to remove quickly from the holster from concealment with a fast fluid motion. The other one would just not stay put where I wanted it to be. It constantly moved around my belt and wouldn’t stay in the cant it was supposed to have.
All in all, the Clinger does everything a great concealment holster should do and nothing more. It is small, goes on easy, unholsters easy, etc.
If you’re on the fence between which brand of concealment holster to buy, you should really save yourself some time and start with the Clinger.
Niko Pheonix –
I love it. Nuff said. It’s small, easy to get on, and tough. It has a great click and the fit is amazing.
Rick M –
I bought the holster a few months ago and thought I’d leave some feedback. It has a great belt clip. The sweat shield is perfect. I can get a full firing grip on my LC9 while it’s holstered. The customer service was great as well. I accidentally ordered the wrong holster. They got me fixed up right away with the right holster. I can’t recommend them enough. Half my family is now using solely Clinger holsters.
Johnny38 –
Gets the job done and then some. I have to have adjustable cant on my rigs. Somedays I carry appendix. Somedays I carry behind my right hip. I don’t want to buy 2 holsters to do one job 2 different ways. Plus, the adjustable retention is nice. I refuse to buy another holster with a stupid rivet that locks the retention in one place. I have a bad shoulder and can’t pull my Glock 19 out of those retarded designs. With the stingray, I just loosen the retention screws and I’m good to go.
TreeSmith3 –
I love my new Clinger Holster. I’ve tried too many to list here. What I’ve learned from buying Kydex holsters is that most of them use crappy molding processes that don’t show as much definition in the holster. A few companies have some kind of better process or fancier equipment that really gets a good mold.
There are only a small handful of Kydex holster makers I know of that can come close to Clinger’s quality. The only problem with those companies is they are WAY overpriced and their customer service plain sucks. I can’t believe I got this high of quality holster for under $60.
I refuse to buy from any holster company other than Clinger.
Lee12rx7 –
I have 20 holsters in my closet. They each had at least 1 or 2 flaws that I learned to live with. Some didn’t fit the gun 100%. Some didn’t click right. Some were too big. Most of them seemed to be uncomfortable. I swear there was always SOMETHING wrong with the dang things. I had no choice but to muscle through whatever issue the latest holster had because in the end it was worth it to have my gun on me all day long.
Somehow I lucked into finding Clinger Holsters. My pastor had one on at the shooting range and I asked him about it. He’s the second guy that told me about them. I had a new gen 5 Glock 19 so I figured I’d try yet another holster brand in my quest for concealed carry perfection. Or at the very least I thought maybe I’d find concealed carry mediocracy that might be better than my last attempt.
MY SEARCH FOR THE PERFECT HOLSTER IS OVER. I’ve finally found it. The Clinger Holster clicked off every box that I look for in a holster and even surprised the heck of me with a few other features and qualities. I look for 3 main qualities in a holster.
1) It has to be small. The smaller the better. Big holsters aggravate the crap out of my skin about 2 hours into the day.
2) It has to be comfortable. I’m not a Nancy or anything but I’ve tossed so many Kydex holsters into the back of the closet because it was too darned hard to make it a full day with it inside the waistband.
3) It has to conceal well. I’ve had some holsters that conceal my LC9 worse than another holster might conceal my CZ 75. The Clinger conceals better than my other holsters.
It’s incredibly comfortable. I have taken naps in my recliner with this holster on and it doesn’t bother me in the least. Also. This holster really is smaller than any of my other holsters. That really, really helps with comfort and concealment.
If you’re looking for the PERFECT holster. This is it. No BS just perfection. I’m relieved that my days of griping about holsters is behind me.
Lee Greene –
This holster is so small!!! I am smitten. It has high quality construction sure but the design is why I love it. Clinger doesn’t make a holster for my Makorov so I shopped elsewhere. What it boils down to is this: I can’t buy decent holster for it until Clinger supports it. (Are you listening Clinger folks? Please make a holster for the Makarov!!!). Other holster companies don’t have the features and quality that my Clinger has. It’s very small. It conceals better than I even knew was possible. On another note, the belt clip is flat out great. It is easy to clip on and holds tight.
I give it 5 stars.
Eddie Jackson –
It’s a small and very concealable holster.
I bought this holster because I wanted the smallest footprint holster I could find.
This is it.
The concealment blew my mind. And it’s comfortable. I’ve never seen better quality either. 5 stars.
