Thigh holster for Bodyguard 380?
Does anyone have a recommendation for some type of thigh holster with a weight support (clip to top of pants/belt?) for a Bodyguard 380?
I have a Remora "ankle holster" for another pistol that I can't stand. It was an experiment to try that never did work. I am not a fan of the Remora style holsters for any kind of concealed carry.
I have a chest holster with a shoulder strap that works well for several pistols - more universal fit with stretchy bands. It is not very comfortable, but I wear it for many hours at a time and it does "work". Id like to find a better option for a chest holster also, but Im.just not sure where to look.
In the case of the Bodyguard I need deeper concealment than a chest holster - and it would get in the way up there too much. Ankle position is possible, so maybe an option for both, although thigh would need an upper support to keep from sliding down.

How is a thigh holster going to allow…
…deeper concealment?
Wouldn’t you have to wear a trench coat or something akin to that?
Perhaps I am missing something. 🤷♂️
Be safe.

I'd recommend pocket carry in a DeSantis Nemesis pocket holster.

I normally carry the Bodyguard in a pocket holster. The issue in a scenario I am working to overcome is the bulge and printing. Most of the time thats not an issue. I actually carry a Kahr MK9 in the pocket like that more often, and prefer it. The cases for the Bodyguard are when I need a lower profile. And to that point I am not content with pocket carry. IWB at any position is too risky with my waistline getting exposed a lot - leaning over, reaching overhead, etc.
For the scenarios I am trying to cover - ankle position would work the majority of the time, but I do wear muck boots occasionally and switch in to them. Switching boots would be iffy and I would have to see if an ankle holster in my pants leg would even fit in the muck boot.
Just trying to cover all my bases.

Sounds more like a wardrobe problem than a holster problem. Dress around the gun.
