Maybe he already had the holster for a prior gun. If it works well why spend more money

Fobus paddle holster for the Walther PPS works perfect.
They also make one specifically for the shield. I have one for my Sig Sauer 9mm. Fits and holds the pistol firmly.

I have a Shield .40. I picked up a Praetor Defense Holster, designed specifically for the Shield. It was only available by mail order online. Costs around $50.00. Fits nice and tight to the body, not even noticeable wearing a Tshirt. Check it out, I don't think you'll be disappointed!

I was going to buy one and almost commited. but then I looked closer and it said PPS on it, meaning its the same one. So, I found a cheaper one on Amazon, because the seller only specified it was for one pistol.

Yes a very high quality & style full Kydex holster. The builder is on You Tube, watch a few shorts. you can PM him on YT or email him at [email protected] . You will talk with AC to help you pick out style and color combinations. Usually takes a week to 10 days, you will be very happy!

Shield conceal holster
Purchased the Shield and the search was on for the perfect conceal holster. By far the best I found after months of research and going to every gun show, gun shop I could find is a company called K rounds. OWB tight fit to the body, you forget its on. It is the design, they placed the belt loops recessed back in the kydex to hold the holster close. Adjustable tension and just a company that actually took the time to design. Check out the website;
krounds.com I am in and out of my truck all day and does not pinch my side. I hope this helps someone.

OWB Shield Holster Recommendation
I recommend you look at the Wright Leatherworks Predator pancake holster, priced at $75.00. I carry my Shield in this holster, and find it very comfortable.
I’m carrying a bit more weight than I need, and found moving the holster back from my hip makes for easy pistol access and comfortable carry.

Difficult to beat from Comp-Tac their Minotaur Gladiator OWB holster
for comfort. I use it for winter wear here in southern Arizona (T-shirt and
a light cover. Pricey at ninety bucks ( LE discount available) but worth it.
I also use their IWB Neutral Carry holster. On the last you can switch out
the kydex shells for other pistols.

I got a Desantis mini-scabbard in black when i got my shield right away at the shop. Its simple and it looks really nice too
here:
I am looking for an IWB myself now. I got a whitehat maxtuk but I didn't care for it the first time I had it out... maybe needs more break in
I agree this is a great little holster. I got one for my Glock 26 and 19 also.

Yesterday, I bought a black Bulldog belt-slide (medium) for $22 at our LGS. It holds my 9mm Shield securely and tight at 3 o'clock. No printing even with the 8-round mag.

I have a cobra Hybrid on the way from them (if it ever gets here) that allows for similar OWB carry and optional IWB carry (clip or loop). Hopefully it will provide the best of both worlds. I just wish the manufacturing and lead time wasn't so long.
For now, I use a BlackHawk Serpa with a U-Mod clip for OWB and a Little Fox for IWB. They both work extremely well.
I second the K Rounds holster. It is far and away the best pancake holster I have ever seen. Super design and the tightest fit to the body of any holster out there. Melts away under a shirt. I getting one for my XD9 as well, and maybe some mag holders to boot.
I have a Blue Ridge Holster Discrete EDC. Fits great, contours close to the body and I do not know it is there. Took a couple of weeks to have it delivered, faster than most. Reasonably priced too.... $61

I plan to wear an OWB holster with my 9mm Shield. Concealed. Really want a paddle-style if I can find one that feels secure enough. I like the quick on-off a paddle gives me. I plan to use the holster under a shirt worn outside the pants.
The DeSantis model in the photo looks good to me. However, it also looks like it might carry the pistol high above the belt so that the grip would "flop out" a bit at the top, thus printing more than the holsters that carry the pistol more below the belt line. What's been your experience?
My DeSantis holds the grip very close.
I have tried and have a couple paddle holsters (Fobus) they are very convenient, but they don't hold the gun very close.

Thanks for that info. I will try to find one to try it out.
