If you want a comparable sized Sig, check out the P938.
The Sig P290 is about 0.5" smaller than the Shield in height and length. I've never been a big fan of small frame sub-compacts that you can only fit at most 2 fingers on the grip.

The Kahr PM9 is closer in size to the Sig P290. I would go to a LGS and get a feel for these firearms and see which fits YOU better. Some places will even let you rent firearms with a box of ammo. Good luck finding a Shield in stock to try though.
The Kahr is the lightest of the 3, weighing only 15.9oz
