I like the looks of that Lobo 442 IWB. Looks like it would work great for my little Ruger LCR 357. I have a similar looking holster (single leather,thin) from another holster maker but the revolver fits so tight it is hard to draw. I like the area the clip is placed on yours. I bet lowering that clip helped the new version 442 holster ride a little higher. I may have to try one. Thanks for posting.

I carry exclusively IWB. First started carrying my SR9c with a CB SuperTuck. Found it so comfortable I bought a second one for my M&P Shield. No I am not thin either. I am 50 lbs. overweight and have no trouble carrying IWB.

Hi Guys,
newer to the carry club I did a lot of reading prior to starting to fill my holster box.
I bought a holster similar to the CB called Theis Holster.(about 35 bucks cheaper by the time shipping is added )
I bought the one he made in horse leather(thinner and does not soak up the sweat like cow leather) and it has been great. I still know its there but with the kydex molded for my gun I can re-holster if i need to. and the adjustments made to cant its about as good as it gets for IWB. IMHO.

ColColt-I assume you are talking about a 1911, and if you are I highly recommend Gary Brommeland's Max Con V for IWB. I can draw and holster one handed, and it is so thin I don't even have to go to another notch in my belt with my 1911. When I carry my M&P 45C it rides in a CTAC MTAC, and also is one handed operation.
Give Gary a ring:

I don't like IWB either. I tried a bunch of good holsters including crossbreed. I am not skinny but I don't have any rolls or overhand, it just is not comfortable to me.
I use an OWB, a thin T shirt protects my skin and an open button up short sleeve shirt works in the hot summer time.
I also pocket carry a J frame or a little Kel-Tec around the house.
I carried a J frame AIWB with a barami Hip grip for many years so I am comfortable with that position also but a medium large gun will dig into you when you sit.

If you ever have to use a pistol in self-defense, you'd better have it holstered when the police arrive, or spectators once the threat is stopped. If it takes two hands, you are temporarily defenseless and definitely disorganized looking.
I have no problem reholstering in a VM2 or Summer Special with one hand. They have a steel band to keep the holster open under belt tension. It just takes a little practice.
