Default Lookining for a cross draw holster

I'm looking to buy a leather cross draw holster for my S&W Model 60 Pro, 3" BBL. I shoot left handed. My usual go to is El Paso Saddletry, bit he is saying orders are 24 weeks out. Anyone have a suggestion for a quality holster?

Skip the western holsters and go to concealment.

If you can't find a dedicated "cross draw" holster, maybe a "neutral cant" will work. I've been carrying a CA, Chiefs Special or 642 in a strong side "neutral cant" little old Hunter for years. It's a right hand strong side, and works great as a cross draw on my left side especially while driving.

I have several of his holsters, including one cross draw for a 1911. Quality work at a fair price.

While I've never used their crossdraw holster, I've used a Side Guard Holsters IWB for several years with my 642. It's excellent quality and has held up well.

Side Guard Holsters LLC - OWB Cross Draw Holster - Cross Guard

You can also specify the degree of cant you want.

Might be worth checking out.

I have bought a number of holsters, including cross draw., from Craft. Although they are in Eastern Europe, I have never waited more then 7 weeks and the quality is outstanding and the price is not over the top.

I've been using a Bullard crossdraw for 8-9 years now. It has about a 10 degree cant and I can use it strong side. I've been hard on it, lots of sweat.
