Default IWB dilemma

Hey all,
I'm an Israeli Citizen living in Jerusalem and recently bought a new SD9ve. Sad to say that out here quality holsters are hard to come buy, and even if you find one the price is usually at least twice what you'd pay Stateside. I recently stumbled upon the "Stealth gear USA" IWB for 100$ and was intrigued. I'm looking for a lightweight concealed carry, and the breath-ability is extremely attractive seeing as it gets pretty hot around here. before buying, im wondering if theres anyone here who has already owned or owns that holster who can recommend if its a good choice for the SD9. I also have the option of the IWB "mini" for compact and under, or the full size "ONYX" and I was looking for opinions of people to see if the SD9 is light enough to be considered compact so I could save some coveted waist line realestate... Thanks

Have you considered contacting some of the members here that make holsters? It may be cheaper to have one made, if you can wait a couple of months, and pay the shipping from here in the states than buying one there. Plus, you can get exactly what you want.

Dear MS7th.
You might check AlienGearholsters.com and see what they have to offer. I heartily recommend them. I live in a desert area, in So. California. I have been carrying IWB for about 3 years. I have had my .40 SW MP Shield carried for sometimes 12 hours a day while driving temperatures here rise up into around 120 degrees during the some months. AlienGear offers some great guarantees. Good Luck and Stay Safe.
