I have two I can recommend without reservation.

I don't carry my LCP as my main gun, rather I bought it for those times when I can't carry a gun. If I am in long pants, the LCP is in a Renegade ankle holster (if you are not familiar with those great holsters, Google them).

If I am in shorts (after all, this IS Florida), the LCP is in a Recluse holster in my left rear pocket. Recluse has a number of different ones, and I got one that fit the CT grips and allowed me to carry the extra mag, too.

I still carry my 642-1 as my main gun, but there are just times when I can't carry it, so I have the LCP.

I researched the pocket holsters pretty thoroughly and settled on the Recluse. I've been using a Renegade for years and like it better than the Alessi it replaced as it is much "tighter" on the ankle and really shows no outline even with jeans. Yet, even with jeans, the leg slides up clearing the holster to access the gun with no problem.

DeSantis Nemesis or their Super Fly or Remora for pocket.
I would not belt holster such a small gun.

I carry mine without a holster and have had no issues with wear marks on my jeans or problems getting it out quickly.
I was not even aware that someone would make a holster for a gun that small.
Seems like it may slow down your draw. Thats just my 2 cents.
