OUTBAGS USA LS2G26 (Brown-Right) Full Grain Heavy Leather IWB Conceal Carry Gun Holster for Glock 26 G26 9mm / Glock 27 G27 .40 / Glock 33 G33 .357 / Glock 39 G39 .45GAP. Handcrafted in USA.

So I am rolling into my 29th year in law enforcement. Which is the same year my youngest kid decided it seemed like a good career for them too. And I decided if my kid wanted to be an idiot, I would at least make sure they were well equipped from the start. After trying various backup/off duty firearms, the kid chose a Glock 26. I have preached carrying a backup and carrying off duty, and I shopped for holsters that could work for both inside the uniform/vest strap attachment and iwb off-duty carry.I ordered two holsters, the other one was a Bianchi that looked identical to one I have owned for a half century. The Bianchi was a disappointment. This Outbags model was much better. It was well molded to the Glock, so fit was tight and retention was good. It seems well made and should be rigid enough to stay open for reholstering, even if used IWB. I would have preferred to have given him a holster with a thumb break (the Bianchi) but this one is snug enough I am comfortable with it retaining the weapon in a foot pursuit. And I can't exactly ding a holster for lacking a feature I knew it lacked when I ordered it.Overall, I think this is a solid old school leather holster. The manufacturer took time to mold it to its intended firearm well, the leather used seems to be quality, and the build appears to be solid. Only time will tell how long it last, but I would order another Outbags holster and I take my gear fairly seriously.

I love leather and really wanted something other than kydex to tote my gun around in but unfortunately this just doesn't work for me. No getting around it that kydex is much thinner and after wearing this all day it's just too thick for it not to let me know it's still there, digging into my hip. The quality certainly seems to be there, looks well made and has a very nice color to it. The belt clip however was the downfall for my situation. I have the thicker leather belts for carrying and this clip does not fit over them. The top curve of the clip is so narrow that it V's over the belt leaving a gap between the bottom of the clip and the holster. My cheapy thin belt is the only one that it fits over and that doesn't offer the support well enough for the size of the holster and the gun. This requires me to cinch the belt up uncomfortably tight or leave it loose enough that it rubs from shifting around and requires frequent pulling up or adjusting-neither is any good. I looked at these for a long time and once I got it I really wanted it to work-I wore it several times-but for me it looks like I've just got another holster for the drawer, hopefully I can find someone that can be happier with it than me. Nothing against the holster itself, just doesn't work for me and my setup. If I wanted to buy a thinner "tactical" belt it might work better but not with what I am currently using.

so no problem with the craftsmanship but the leather was a little dry so i saturated in ballistol and let it sit for around 10 hours and then wiped it down... now its as hydrated and SMOOTH as a new born's bottom.... BUT.... other than that it has GOT. TO. BE. be the absolute BEST leather IWB holster for a Glock 26 under $60 , seriously i cant sing the praises of this thing quite enough, i really was surprised... the over all craftsmanship and the fit and finish are wonderful tight, THICC stitching and fits a Glock 26 PERFECTLY, like a custom made glove even.... u really couldnt ask for any better (especially for the price, it's EASILY comparable in craftsmanship and over all look and feel as my $170 Galco "Royal Guard 2.0" leather holster and my $100 Kusiak "old fashioned" re-enforced leather holsters but i mostly just have those for when i'm wearing a suit or khakis and a polo at weddings and holidays things like that)... i really wanted a nice and simple looking, durable holster i could wear everyday and not be worried about scratching or creasing it or whatever... and kydex's are nice but idk.. they can get uncomfortable wearing ALL DAY sometimes ( kydex can leave deep-ish impressions on my skin and whatnot, also i had a "We The People" kydex that RUINED the finish on a satin stainless S&W 638 J frame with scratches... the holster wasnt even screwed that tight... so now its NOTHING but leather for ALL my wheel guns from then on so i would say i'm at least familiar with a solid quality leather holster by this point)... this one sits low (but not too low), nothing poking or digging into u and most importantly of all ITS SOFT (but not too flexible)... i really have NO patience for a holster that is just a thin sheet of soft leather wrapped around a gun, so its a MUST for all my leather holsters to have structural integrity, they need to be able to be nice and soft feeling but still stay rigid and hold their shape... this holster is pretty ridgid (for not being re-enforced) it DOES keep its shape pretty well while being worn the mouth stays open no matter how tight your pants are pretty much so its very easy to re-holster your weapon without pulling or tugging at the holster or your pant's waist to get it in (its probably easier for me to quickly get in and out of this holster than it is for me to get in and out my GF alot times... LOL) and the inside is formed PERFECTLY to a Glock comes out of the box with deep impressions of the slide controls and rear slide serrations in the soft side if the leather... so i absolutely love this holster so far and would give it 6 stars if i could but i will be posting an update in 60-90 days to let u all know how it holds up being carried all day, EVERY DAY for that amount of time....

So after break in this is a nice holster. Quality leather. However- for ME.... the "ear" of the holster digs in very hard. Been carrying for 20+ years. It may work for some, but I will be returning and looking for something more comfortable.

Received my Glock 26 last week. I was in need of a concealed holster and stumbled onto this one. All I can say is WOW...I'm beyond pleased. Stitching is top notch, it holds the gun in place very well. I cant believe it's the price it is. If your looking for a great quality holster look no further. AWESOME...

The only reason I’m giving one less star than max is because my gen5 g26 doesn’t slide into the holster the best. The trigger guard gets just slightly in the way. Other than that one small thing this holster is great. It’s comfortable, sturdy, and it covers the trigger completely. I feel very secure carrying this holster daily. Thanks for making a great product for a great price

Too hard. Thought leather would be softer. Could scratch gun.

nice holster. i dont use it alot, as i have several. it is nice quality and heavy leather, durable construction. clip is so so, not fancy, just a plain metal thin stamping. i expect it to last forever.
