Foxx Holsters

[Winkman822]

I just got my new P99 holster from Foxx Holsters, and my initial impression is: I'M IMPRESSED!!!! It's a leather and kydex hybrid type holster that's tuckable and attaches with polymer C-clips. The holster holds the gun well on its own and while wearing, it gives that last little bit of extra retention. All of the rivets are covered with studs (no sharp edges to poke into you), and best of all the pricing is great. The holster's start price is around $40.00. Mine came in at around $60 with the up charge for the comfort pad and the nylon c-clips. Turn around time was about a week from placing the order to the holster being delivered by the postman.

It also occurred to me that a pic would probably have been nice for y'all, so here it is.

Just a quick update on this holster after having lived with it on hip for about a week or so. I still really dig the quality of the holster, it's comfortable and wears easily all day, the gripe, however, is that it has a huge sweat shield that doesn't let me get as good a grip on the gun as I'd like. I'll try to get a picture of it up later.

A common complaint of that type of holster.

I don't have a great deal of experience with this type of IWB holster, but have always liked the idea since I'm a small guy and the design distributes weight across a larger area to help prevent the gun side of my belt and trousers from sagging. I also find it hilarious that if you get a CrossBreed and specify their "combat cut" for a reduced sweat shield, they charge you more money for less material. It's a bit like the Porsche 911 GT3RS, charge a boat load more money for a lot less stuff in the car...and people do it. Routinely. I suppose I'll be back to the Summer Comfort type holster until I can find an acceptable hybrid holster that doesn't do the ridiculous sweat shield. On the plus side, this type of holster is super comfortable to wear all day.
