IWB designs/brands.....
I'm not a big fan of the IWB series or the increased interest in polymer/hybrid IWB styles.
There are a few great picks in IWB for a full size M&P .40 pistol. I'd look at the Wright Leather Works holster(s). They look sharp & will hold up very well.
The "Summer Special"(a leather holster R&Ded by a CA DoJ narcotics agent; Bruce Nelson) was a standard thru most of the 1970s/1980s/1990s.
New Kydex & synthetic holsters offer a lot too.
Id highly suggest calling or contacting any holster shop prior to buying a rig to make sure they can send it or that you are happy with it.
Top vendors for IWB holsters include; Ted Blocker, Milt Sparks, Galco, Bianchi-intl, Blade-tech, Alessi, Don Hume, Mitch Rosen, Kirkpatrick Leather, Greg Kramer, Ken Null, Mernickle, Safariland, High Noon Holsters.

Alright, awesome! Thank you, for the other references, ima check em out. I was also looking at galcos summer comfort, just because I ain't real "fond" of kydex, it seems like, it might dig in a bit, were as, the all leather, will form over time, and make a better overall holster, "id think" just an opinion, I really have no exp with holsters yet so.

Check out our very own TAKtical http://www.thehighroad.org/showthread.php?t=737450. I bought a hybrid IWB holster and a hybrid IWB magazine carrier for a Glock 19 from him and both work really well. He is also a really good guy to deal with.
I agree - he's a great guy to deal with.

After discovering him years ago, this is the only conceal carry rig I use. With it not being a rigid holster, placing the weapon back in takes some practice, but lets be honest- getting it out is the most important. I have three of these for my different weapons and have purchased a few as gifts. Yes, you can but cheaper holsters, but I am VERY happy with the quality of the holster and the longer I own them the less I notice them when wearing one. I regularly carry my Glock 21 duty weapon, and then switch to my Kahr CW45 or my Taurus 905 when clothing dictates.
