Jockstrap Holsters Are My Favorite Style. They have been for quite a number of years. I know that vintage makers Myres and Lawrence made them, and there were probably others, but Heiser wasn’t one of them. I know current makers produce them too. They can be very, very fancy or very plain.
I’ll start this thread by showing a couple of mine. It actually took me a while to find my first one, and it is very interesting because it is a unique uncatalogued one. Myres called that style a Ranger holster. This Myres Uncatalogued Ranger Threeperson Style Holster fits a Colt SAA with a 5 1/2 inch barrel.
My second example is what I think of when I see the words “jockstrap holster”. It is the traditional style, rather fancy because it’s very nicely floral carved. It fits a S&W K frame with a 6 inch barrel.
Show us what you have and tell us a little about them.

The second is my fanciest one, it is fully lined and laced. When I received the holster, I was amazed at the workmanship, and the thoughts of how time consuming it must have been to make, with all the lacing. After finding out that Myres sometimes etched their holsters like Heiser did, I looked under the holster and found "445 line + lace" etched on the back skirt. So it is a SD Myres Model 445.
