Upload did not work in previous post. Treadstone and mag carrier from Overwatch.
That's a sweet picture, mind if I post it on the Facebook feed?

Another vote for the N82 Professional holster. Have been carrying my Shield in it for about a month now and I love it. Most comfortable holster I have ever worn...

I use the original Allien Gear holster, for my .40 Shield. Hardly know it's there. Price is right, quality is outstanding. Customer service is excellent. Only down side was the wait, and they were up front about that. I have since purchased another from them, and will continue to do so as my EDC firearms grows.

+1 for PJ Holsters. Paul's kydex holster's are made to order and can be custom built to your liking (different cants, belt clips and colors). I have one for my Shield and 9c and love um.
When I go belt-less, I use a Remora sticky.

I see that some are just Kydex. I'm wondering how comfortable that is with no barrier against the skin?

You'll hear a lot of opinion, it really is personal preference.
I fond it's no big deal and of the couple of hundred I've sold I haven't heard anyone have a problem, and a good chunk I've received very positive unsolicited feedback.
Also, I think most people wear underwear

I just strapped on my favorite holster, the Crossbreed super tuck. I have one for my full size 9 and my 3913. Couldn't see any option but getting one for my shield with the CT LG-489G attached. Really is nice. I tried a couple of other cheaper similar types but sent them back. Good old Cross Breed for me.
33 post and no one mentioned Milt Sparks, yes they are expensive, yes it takes 2 months to get one, these are valid points. Here are some more valid points, they will last your lifetime, No one makes a better holster, they are reinforced for easy one handed re-holsters, they will not collapse on you and lets face it nothing beats leather. I carry a M&P 40c as my EDC and it is very comfortable, waiting now on one for my shield.
about 4 more weeks of wait time that is more than worth it.

Search for Alien Gear wait times and do a search on this forum...
It's a mixed bag. Saying that, the only people I know with them like them.

I ordered the Alien Gear cloak tuck 2.0 but with the long wait time I also got a Desantis Sof-tuk from Amazon for like $18 to hold me over during the wait. I actually found that I like the cheap Desantis a lot, it's not bulky and comfortable to wear. The Alien Gear is awesome too and reasonable price at $36.

Raven Concealment Systems , and Contact Concealment are two great holsters. Love my RCS cause they are can be worn IWB or OWB.

second vote for N82. I use the professional model. You can seriously nap with one of these on and its incredibly secure with a proper belt
I'll second that. The PJ Holster is my favorite holster for my Shield.

I have the "Little Foxx" IWB for my XDS 3.3 and also for my Kahr C/M 9. Well made, comfortable, and reasonably priced. Good customer service and free shipping.

Gotta go a LONG way to beat an Andrews (Alachua, FL) Mac Daniel rig. Not too spendy, but delivery will take a while. Ritchie Holsters in Buffalo NY also makes a nice product. Their Nighthawk works really well for me. Tried kydex...not a fan really, but if you like the plastic, Tommy Theis makes an excellent IWB holster and is pretty quick on delivery.
