When I first got my CHP I carried IWB.
I believe that IWB contributed to my Sciatica. I'm not a doctor but it's
my opinion that IWB focuses all the pressure on one point and this exacerbates Sciatica. So I carry OWB.
I'm not an expert on holsters so I asked some people who I thought were and quite a few of them recommend Kramer Leather. So that's what I use.
It seems that every time I slip on the ice and fall I land on my gun. Rather than forgo carrying my gun I invested in a pair of cleats

Which I find useful gun or not.
I used to
hate Glocks..... until I bought one. Similarly I used to
hate Kydex until my last security assessment when my employer required that I provide my own "retention" holster

When I took that assigly nment I knew I was going to retire within 6 months (turned out to be 3) and I wasn't willing to buy an actual duty type retention holster.
The Safariland Model 578 GLS™ Pro-Fit brings the unique GLS™ (Grip Lock System) and SafariSeven™ together in a holster designed to fit a wide variety of guns...

That said the Safariland GLS 578 is a good holster
for what it is. I most frequently use it when I'm going somewhere I know I'm going to have to lock my gun in my car.
It's surprisingly concealable and it does give at least
some level of retention but there's no way I'd use it in a position where I thought I
needed a retention holster
