Realize this is kind of a fluff thread and may have been done to death in the past but what are you all using to carry. I like what I have but am always looking for something more comfortable. Pics of what I have now are. 1. Winthrop owb. Least expensive and most comfortable. 2. Tucker gun leather snap on DDOO. 3. Garrett tuckable Silent thunder Fusion iwb

I have a comp-tac mtac and a pjholster kydex iwb option for my Shield. I was thinking about trying that Garrett Industries silent thunder fusion for my HK p2000sk. Right now I'm using a comp-tac that I added a suede backing to, but I've been eyeing the GI holster for a while. How do you like it with the shield?
 
I use a N82 for IWB carry of my Shield. Very comfortable. Conforms well to body, but can draw without issue. Little hard to reholster with the "original" version, but their "professional" version reholsters smoothly.
 
I use the MTR Custom Leather dual carry. It's form fitted to the Shield, reholsters easily, and is comfortable and tuckable. I usually carry IWB but have used the OWB option when dressed heavy for cold weather.

I have an aliengear. I like it. Price was right. It is a little difficult getting it on and in the right position at the start, but then it is good to go.

I don't carry all the time. I work at a university, so during the week, and am back and forth to work, I don't carry.
 
I have a ttgunleather coming next week. its the slim xc, I will let you know how it works

I like the Garrett, thought it was going to be to stiff with the Kydex but it is VERY comfortable for my body type once it is in. Super easy to re-holster. I do find it takes a little time and adjustment to get just right.

Thank you all for your posts. I have been Goggling like crazy your holster choices. I have a bookmark folder with at least 40 different makers and a lot of these are new to me.

I have 2 TT Gunleather holsters. 1 shown here for the shield and 1 for a 3" 1911. Super high quality, right up there with milt sparks. Have a 10 year old sparks for a 4" 1911 which still looks and carries great. The Winthrop is also nice. Not as fitted or as high quality but my most comfortable. both owb and iwb. Have one for a 642 that makes it completely disappear while wearing.

I have been very happy with N82 pro for my compact, turned a friend onto them and he loves it for his 40 shield. Top notch customer service too.

PJHolster.com Tuckable IWB Appendix Zero Cant. Only holster I have for it at the moment. I tend to prefer Appendix Carry but am interested in getting a Hybrid to try out, mostly in the mountains around camp and such when I care less if someone makes me.

Just got me a little foxx today. Helps they're a mile from my work...
After using an Old faithful from 2 to 6 o'clock, and everywhere inbetween, just not comfy.

Single jclip and this felt comfy standing, sitting and driving at 3 to 4 o clock....and not as bulky. 40c btw.
