Andrews Leather in Florida. Great stuff. Kind of spendy and about a 60 day wait. Worth it..........
Another great choice is Alessi. Legendary.

I expect there will be any number of sources for lined shoulder holsters.
I don't know how many of those sources will share with you the simple fact that soft leather linings (suede or smooth leather) will readily absorb and retain moisture (perspiration is always a factor with shoulder holsters), and that combination of chemically-tanned soft leather and moisture wrapped around your handgun all day, every day, is very likely to result in more damage to the handgun finish than any amount of holster wear from an unlined holster will ever cause.
Just my $0.02 worth here. I've only been doing this for about 43 years or so.

That advice is worth much more than the 2 cents Lou mentioned. soft lined holsters, especially if pistol or revolver is left in them, will cause rust over time in certain weather conditions like high humidity areas, that time can be way to short. been there done that!!!sadly!!
