anyone use a sticky holster for their concealment holster ?
am planning on , more than likely , pocket carry for my sigp365 . i know that pokcet carry for the sig is very possible . have a holster for an other gun i pocket carry and the sig does not quite fit that holster , but it does go into my pocket w/ my 365 . just need the exact fit holster for the sig. have had good service from a desantis pocket rig. but the sticky holster claims to be good for pocket carry , AND they claim their holster sticks to inside of most fabrics , so it can also be an inside the waist band holster with out a clip ! great idea if it does work .
any experience with the sticky holster , used either way ? thanks

I had a Desantis pocket holster. I believe they called it a Nemesis?
I didn't care for pocket carry, but I don't remember ever having any
problem with it. I gave it to my great-grand-daughter a couple of
Christmas's ago along with a Ruger LCR.
 
I have used my Sticky holster a couple years now for my Springfield XDS .45. I use it as an IWB and works very very well. I have had no issues with it slipping/moving out of position. You do need to clean it every once in awhile with a very mild soap/water mixture to keep its "sticky" properties.
 
I have 3 different sizes of Sticky holsters that will accommodate about a dozen different handguns, I don't pocket carry any of them, but instead, I tuck them IWB at around 3:00 to 3:30. And they stay put, right where I put them, very comfortably I might add.

The smallest one is a 5 shot snubby l, and the largest is a 1076/4566 3rd generation semi-auto. They don't move around and I sometimes have to discreetly check to make sure it's still there.
 
I pocket carry my 442 in a Mika Pocket Holster. It works great.

Is "Sticky" holster a brand or a type of holster?

I have a Mika "sticky" IWB/pocket holster that works reasonably well IWB with a Walther CCP. I just have to remember to not let it sink beneath my waistband or it will slide down my leg onto the floor. The key is to keep the grip handle above the waistband. I much prefer it as a pocket holster and routinely carry the Walther that way.
 
Sticky Holsters is a brand, but I'm sure others are made very similar. The "sticky" portion of the holster is not really sticky, but it is a soft rubbery like material that uses the tension of your belt to hold it in place. This is a Shield 45 in a Sticky LG-6S holster.

I can carry an officer's or commander's size 1911, or an L frame S&W model 696 (a 5 shot 3" 44 special), or a Beretta PX4 9mm , all in the same holster. It also carries a 2.5'" model 66 six shooter and many others, very comfortably.

And they run about $30 bucks, give or take. I have no association with the company, other than being a highly satisfied customer.

I have a Soft Armor #3 sticky, for J frame. Works well in the pocket and works perfectly AIWB for cargo shorts when I don't like the pocket gun flopping around. Only takes a couple seconds to move it from one to the other.
 
I use a Mika for my light weight J frames in the pocket, and I have never had any problems with it. For the pistols slightly too large for pocket carry I use the De Santis micro holsters (S&W .45 Shield).
 
I use stickies to store a pistol in the car or when I just want the trigger covered, and have quite a few.

I don't pocket carry.

I can't use the sticky as I have medical issues that make overly frequent stops in the john a matter of life, and there is little option but to drop trow most of the time. That sticky isn't that sticky.

I don't like the fact that they don't maintain the shape of the pistol, which is a must to re-holster quickly.

All that said I do have half a dozen.
