I've been looking for a new IWB holster for my SD9VE and seen several that I like online but they specify they are for a S&W M&P Shield 9mm. Will my SD9VE fit in a holster that says it's for a M&P Shield 9mm?

In general, no. The SIGMA series pistols are blocky as opposed to the Shield, tapered and short. I have a FOBUS holster marked HK-1 that fits the 9VE. The 9VE is far too large for my Safariland 567BL-1-2-150-175 that fits the Shield.
It is possible you might find something with enough adjustment, but I don't know what it would be. The nylon "sock" holsters that fit everything poorly are not suitable for EDC, IMHO.

I packed a VE Sigma for many years in holsters designed for other guns, just because there wasn't a good selection of holsters for it.

I have found that for most leather. If it fits a Glock 17/22, you can wet mould it to fit the Smith. Some Kydex holsters that fit the Glock 20/21 would fit the Smith as well.
 
I've been using a CYA IWB holster specifically made for the SD9VE. No complaints here at all.

Sent with some arcane communications device.
 
I have found and use a few of the cheaper kydex ones found online with some success. I have gone so far as to change-out the belt-clip to loops on the holsters. No complaints.

No. It will not.
 
I know of some shooters that used a Glock 19 holster successfully.

Take a look at HAWG Holsters, I like mine a lot. I have a Shield 9mm EZ. Had it sent to me in less than a week.
 
For an IWB I like the Galco Triton TR472. It's made for the full size M&P's but it is an excellent fit for the SD9VE/SD40VE.

Depends. My Desantis hybrid works for both M&P Double Stack and the SD9/SD40 current generation (2012 & newer?)

My On Your 6 Designs and Neptune Concealments are molded specifically to the SD series.

I ordered mine from Alien Gear in N. Idaho and have no complaints. kytec outer shell with leather hybrid. before that I used a fobus paddle holster owb.
I live in Spokane and was able to visit before I ordered.
 
Picked up a SD9 FDE This afternoon & went to my Holster Box looking for a holster..
No Glock Holster will work, Won't even go in at all = Galco & Fobus
I have several Hk USP Compact Holsters that do fit the SD9
Perfect Fit was a Gould & Goodrich for a Full Size Hk USP
Photo to come, I don't care for a thumb snap holster but it fits perfectly
I have a SIG-Tac Paddle holster somewhere for a Hk I will have to try as well
 
Just for grins and giggles I bought an SD9VE a few weeks ago. Then I decided to get a holster for it. I got a "We the People" IWB Kydex one. Gun seems to fit well. I don't think I've actually used it yet (I've got a couple other "carry" guns) but I think it will serve well, and was reasonably inexpensive. Will keep you posted.

I have a HK-2 Holster By Cy-Tac which I think it's made by Fobus being it says Made in Israel on the package & it will not fit the SD9, It has a button release.
It's for a Hk USP Compact 9/40, The Hk-1 Fits the Full Size Hk USP

I am going to go get the holster box & the SD9 & see what I can come up with, I'm Looking for Leather

In my experience, the Sigma, SD and M&P holsters are pretty much interchangeable. Maybe not a perfect fit, but close enough to work well.
