Which IWB holster for a Shield 9?

I carry both my shield and my compact in the milt sparks VMII IWB holster,and here is why. I like the fact that it has two points to attach to the belt and they are not stacked on top of the gun, this keeps the combination of gun and holster thinner than when the loops are on top of the gun. second the anchor points are spread out to make the holster more stable. And the fact that the mouth or opening of the holster is reinforced with metal so it does not collapse for re-holstering is a plus and it is comfortable or I would not own 2 of them. I also only own leather holsters, I bought the king tuck and used it for 3 days and ordered my 2nd milt sparks, if it is not comfortable it will stay home.
 
I can't believe how comfy the Stealthgear holster is , and it conceals really well nice and tight up against my side.

I must say I do really like the way the N82 pro keeps any part of the gun from touching you though.
I may order one for my shield and do a comparison as I really like the one I have for my FS .40.
 
Two work for me. The Remora with standard sweat shield is easy to use and very low profile. I carry about 4-4:30 when I use that one.

The other is a Tactipac Elite for deep concealment. That's actually become just about my 100% holster. The draw's a little slower than my IWB, but it's just over 2 seconds and as long as I can draw and put rounds on target in under 3 seconds that is combat capable for my humble self-defense needs.
 
DeSantis Sof-Tuck. Low cost.. wide adjustment range.. usable in many positions.. stable draw and re-holster.
