Does anyone have a suggestion to stop the squeak of the parts of my X-15 shoulder holster. I have Neatsfoot but would rather not stain my shirts. The squeak is loud enough to me to compromise concealment. Thanks, Mark

Try Fiebings Saddle Oil, it doesn't bleed as bad as neats foot oil, and will wash out of cloth better.

That's why I usually wear a nylon holster when deer hunting I don't like my holsters squeeking like a rusty saddle.

I second the Baby powder suggestion. That is what we always put on the underskirt of our new saddles to keep them from squeaking.

Good question. I have a new x-15 holster for a 6" blue ruger gp 100. I have been using silicone spray until it breaks in. Is the silicone harmful to leather or okay to use?
Get some "Bick 4"..leather conditioner.

If the squeak is leather on leather take a white candle and rub it on the rubbing surfaces, problem solved.... This was told to me by Kramer holsters years ago, and it works.... When/if it comes back just use more white candle....
Just went through this with Bianchi belt scabbard and new belt. Mink oil wax ( leather shoe wax). Candle wax will probably work to. I tried baby powder first with poor results. Just make sure to wax where ever leather contacts leather. Works great.
