(Right, wrong or other wise, I have my reasons for wanting this) Where do I even begin looking for this holster?

Now, moving into more modern holsters, give me the top 5 or so holsters for OWB carry for the Shield. Whatever they may be.

I am not a troll and do not intend to cause problems, but I've heard the Shield was recalled (once?) for something. What was the problem, and has it been fixed? Thanks in advance for answers. I'm very excited. Picked the Shield over the G43. Better quality IMHO and $100 cheaper.
