Default Best Pocket and AIWB holster for Shield?

Just bought a Shield (9mm) last week and will shoot it for the first time tomorrow. Any suggestions for the best pocket holster and appendix inside-the-waistband holster?

Not sure what's the best, but I like Jason Winnie products, Don Hume and DeSantis for a lesser expensive choice.

IWB with Steel Clip - J201 - Jason Winnie Leathergoods

SMITH & WESSON M&P SHIELD 9/40 - available from DeSantis Holster

Couldn't find a Don Hume holster for the Shield though...

Default just got mine too

I just picked up my shield last fri (w/o the safety) whoo who and am going to the range this fri and im in the same boat looking for a holster too..

based on the reading iv been doing the N82 tactical pro has a high rating with alot of people also the aliangear holsters and crossbreed mini's have high reviews im looking for IWB, OWB and a pocket holster this one more than likely be a sticky holster... last one for just jumping to like the store or walking the dog to the mailbox... I plan on wearing the holster at the 3 to 5 position both I/OWB..

So im going to tag along with cityboys thread and see what recommendations pop up...

Pocket: Try DeSantis Nemesis.

AIWB: Don't try it.

If you want something that can do double duty for both Front Pocket and AIWB, you could check out Remora's Pocket holster.
I don't carry appendix, but it does work well IWB.

I run a desantis pocket tuk. Works as IWB or, remove the clip and it's a pocket holster. Ordered on Amazon for $20-$25
