Slippery holster


Recommended Posts

I've got a couple of alien hear holsters that work great for me by providing the best low profile. Problem is they seem to shift a bit and I end up cranking down my belt. I'd like to add some non slip on the back to keep em more secure.

Any recommendations? I tried auto undercoating and while it works as desired, it doesn't seem to dry completely.

Unfortunately for you, the longer you wear that holster the more compressed and smooth the fibers are going to get on the back side of the leather. Usually, this is considered a good thing, since that broken-in feel is what people hope for. Maybe a piece of neoprene rubber and some contact cement will do the trick. I've seen some really thin sheets on McMaster-Carr (http://www.mcmaster.com/#9455k76/=sym5bh). It comes in 12"X12" sheets. It's gonna be hot as hell against your skin, but just about anything that adds a non-slip texture will be. Odd as this may sound, I don't wear my hybrid holsters between my pants and boxers. I wear them directly against my skin for the same reason you state. May not work if you're a "tighty whitey" guy, though.

I'm active so I usually wear supportive drawers, haven't done the righty whitey thing since boot camp though. These holsters have smooth leather on both sides, they don't look seemed and are thick, I think they finished the backside to be as smooth as the front.

I usually wear a wife beater for the sweat factor,( I sweat like a pig in this humidity)which makes it slide around too I guess. The spray I used is perfect except for the residue factor. It's thin and flexible. I'll keep an eye open for a thin sheet to adhere on in the meantime.
Thanks!
