I have a CCW and currently carry a Model 60 Lady Smith .357

I’m using a Fobus holster which I’m pleased with. I’m considering an IWB-tuckable type from Crossbreed for total concealment as I don’t wear my shirts un-tucked.

Has anyone carried with one of these and if so, comments - pro or con?

I have two Super-Tucks and my wife has one. We both like them a lot, but we both carry with our shirts untucked.
It may be just me, but I have always felt that tucking the shirt in with these holsters makes the gun butt really print. I think it's because the shirt tail is tucked in and the shirt doesn't move with me when I turn/twist, like it does when untucked.
 
I use the Crossbreed Supertuck for my S&W M&P 45C, S&W M&P FS 9MM PRO, and My Bersa Thunder 9 Ultra Compact.
I wear it with an untucked t-shirt. No problem there.

However, I tried to do the 'tuck it in" when I wore fitted slacks and a dress shirt.
It was nearly impossible to conceal. So I ended up putting my Jennings 22 in my front pocket.
Better to have something then nothing....

So I guess my point is... the supertuck is still an IWB holster.
However, with the round handle on the Model 60 Lady Smith .357, you may get away with it.
 
I too use a Supertuck, for both full size and compact M&P's. Great holster for IWB. I tuck it on occasion when I'm wearing a jacket. I know that sounds backward, but the "lump" is beyond acceptable on my skinny frame, but an open jacket to break my physical outline & a tucked in shirt is very "unloaded" looking. I use the velcro clips alot for this same reason, but would not necessarily recommend them (not as handy as the metal clips). However, even with the wind blowing my jacket around, I don't think anyone could ever tell I might be carrying a full-size handgun!

For untucked under a t-shirt or such, the grip on the full-size prints. The compact is completely concealed though, and even pulling my shirt tight does not reveal a discernible outline.

I would certainly recommend either the Supertuck or the Comptac's Minotaur for a first IWB. The adjust-ability they offer is invaluable, and their guarantees are gold.
 
I have two. One for 1911 and one for a PPK.
Untucked they are awesome. With a dress shirt tucked, they are more than acceptable. As a public speaker, I regularly wear the PPK tucked without a jacket, and as far as I know no one has ever known.
MOST comfortable IWB I have ever worn.
Ugliest holsters I've ever owned ;)
 
I have deemed the Crossbreed the only holster I wear, carrying my 3913 lLadysmith. I am a big guy and this conceals very well. I usually always have my shirt out, but I have checked it out with shirt tucked and the concealment is still very good. Also, I can wear it all day long and not have any comfort issues, in fact, I forget I have it on. Hope this helps.
 
I don't have a Crossbreed holster, but I use a similar design (Kholster) and carry a Sigma everywhere I go. I've worn it with a tucked shirt to weddings, formal dinners, and funerals with no problems at all. Just make sure you "blouse" the shirt out a bit and even a large gun will disappear.
 
I had a Comp-Tac MTAC for my M&P40c and I absolutely loved it. I wish they made that for a revolver but they don't. They make the CTAC but I like the leather backing better.

I've never used a Supertuck but I have used the Kholster, and it is ok but I don't like the metal belt clips as they end up rubbing holes in my shirts (due to my girth I always end up next to something :p )

Jimmy offers the Kydex clips for the Kholster as well. I've switched to the Kydex and they are much easier on the shirts and the pants.
