Default Appendix holster for Shield needed

I recently got a 9mm Shield and have been looking for a Kydex holster for it. What I want is a straight drop holster that fastens to the belt with a clip for easy on/off. I keep thinking of the type of clip that Alessi uses, but with a Kydex body instead of leather. I have looked through the holster threads about the Shield and have not seen what I want.

Am I dreaming or is there a similar holster out there? The type of clip is debatable and could be like the High Noon style or any other that fastens tightly but securely.

Thanks for any assistance.

For comfort, CrossBreed Appendix Carry will be the best choice IMO. I have tried too many holsters prior to it.

I have been using the PHLster Skeleton for several months now and I like it a lot. It has a single point of attachment for easy on and off.



Another holster I have been considering is from forum member Yardstick owner of MT Holsters. In his classified posting he has a "bare bones style" holster, shown on a XDs, that looks very nice.

PJ's has the answer for you. Lightest, fastest on and off, thinnest, and low cost to boot. I actually appendix carry using the FBI cant with no issues. 6'3" 200#
