Default Suggestions for a forward cant leather IWB for j frame

Hey all,

I am looking for suggestions for a leather IWB for a 442 with a forward cant. I carry about 4:30 and the other IWBs that I have that are dead straight vertical are a PIA to draw from and reholster. I am looking for any suggestions that you all may have. I am not worried about the price as long as it is a good holster, and I have even considered having one custom made but up until now I have just used what was out there already. I am not a fan of kydex at all, so I guess leather is my only other option. I have been looking at the De Santis inside heat as an option but it is vertical and not my first choice. Thanks in advance for the help.

Have you looked into Milt Sparks? Just tell them what you want when you call to order and they will likely make what you are looking for. Great company that makes some highly functional holsters.

Take a look at Galco's NSA. Obviously this photo does not show it
with a J Frame, but I'm fairly certain they make it for J Frame.

For more detail you can search this forum:

I use a Side Guard Holsters Quick Clip IWB holster. You can order it with the cant you want. Mine has a 15-degree cant. Price is very reasonable, IMO. The wait time can be long, though. I believe they're taking about 12 weeks last I heard.
