Cardini Leather - for S&W J Frame - Concealed Carry - Inside the Waistband - IWB with Clip

Great addition to my daily carry. I have been using this holster for months now. Slim line enough to carry concealed with your normal wardrobe. No baggie long shirts required.It has a little extra leather towards the top to cover those sharp corner of the weapon to make sitting for extended periods of time comfortable. The quality of the leather is solid held together with strong stitching. Despite carrying for months the holster looks relatively new. The photos I posted were taken after about 4 months of moderate use. So far this has been a great purchase and am extremely happy with my overall experience. Thanks Cardini Leather.

This is a top of the line holster for $37 dollars I'd match it up against any same type holster any brand at any price. Mine didn't need any breaking in to fit my gun but it will need some as far as wearing it I noticed some people complain about difficulty reholstering pistol this would be difficult but it's a deep concealment holster and Personally I don't draw n reholster my weapon unless I need it. The complaints sounded as though they draw the firearm n attempt reholstering daily I never draw mine like I said unless needed so I don't see where this should be an issue with a deep I.T.W. concealment holster. It's a superb holster for it's intended purpose.

It's been about 8 months since I first clipped this onto my belt. I appendix carry a small 5 shot model 36 in it. It's very comfortable. The retention on the pistol is excellent! The belt clip is super solid and reinforced. I could actually use this without a belt, and still draw the pistol without the holster coming unclipped from my pants.The comfort got way better after the leather broke in. Warmth and sweat seem to have softened the leather and it feels better now than when it was new.

This is a good looking holster made from good quality leather. The leather is however, very rigid which I imagine is necessary in order to press it to create all of the outlines of a J-frame revolver. Looking at the holster right out of the bag it looks like it will function as well as a hard plastic (kydex) holster. And it does.... to an extent. My Ruger LCR snaps into the holster quickly and easily and is held snugly in place. Pulling the gun out is just as easy.The problem comes when you attempt to reholster the gun while wearing the holster IWB. The holster gets sandwiched flat so that the entire "opening" is completely closed. I found it impossible to force the gun in through the top. In fact, I found it impossible to insert the gun into the holster without taking the holster off, inserting the gun, then reattaching the IWB holster to your belt.This makes the holster pretty much useless.

Bought used from Amazon market. It came on time and was accurate as marketed. It is carrying a taurus 605 and fit is nice. Actually a bit tight but I imagine it will loosen up after repeated use. It conceals well and moderately comfortable for iwb carry.Quality of this holster appears to be top grade. Looks amazing and leather is nicely formed and stitched.

As an LEO, I have owned numerous holsters of various quality throughout my career. I am always hesitant buying one without seeing and feeling it first, but I took a chance on this since I had difficulty finding the exact one I was looking for. This holster did not disappoint. It is very secure, well stitched, and robust. It fit my Taurus .38 revolver perfectly. In fact, I just ordered another one for my Kimber 1911. It's right up there with my $100+ holsters, so for the price you can't go wrong.

S&W J Frame model 637-2 with Crimson Trace fits snug. You will need to knead the holster a bit, kind of like working with a new ball glove, to make it a little more pliable and form fitting especially if the temp is cooler/cold. Leather takes some work so don't expect it to be perfect until you put a little effort into making it perfect. Don't be stupid like many who think you should have the perfect fit of something leather right out of the box. I like the way it feels, very secure.

Holster is too large for my taste. Leather seems nice and holster seems to be well made, but the robust nature of the holster makes my J frame take up more room then my Glock 43 with tlr-6 in a kydex holster. I am returning this product. Keep in mind I am very particular about my carry choices, but this holster isn’t comfortable to me.
