Hi All
I am looking for a holster for a LCP. I would like a IWB one that I can wear with most anything. I spend most of my time in shorts or jeans.

Thanks
WB
 
I kinda like DeSantis' stuff - close / equal to custom stuff, but usually no waiting, and can be found below MSRP at places like Optics Planet (free shipping over $29.95, and 5% off coupon codes are easily found).
 
I know you want IWB; but I can vouch for Aholster's quality. I have their pocket holster for my LCP. Nice. IIRC, ordered on a Saturday received holster by the following Friday.....
 
Where are you located? I'll make one for you. I make crossbreed style hybrid holsters much cheaper. $40 per holster, $20 per mag carrier. You can see some of my work in the buy/sell/trade accessories section.
 
Not a recommendation per se or an IWB, but check out the Sneaky Pete. It's a cell phone style holster for the LCP. For some reason it fascinates me.

I don't have one for my LCP....yet. But I love this versatile little holster, I have one for my larger pistols and will be ordering one for my LCP.

I ditched the metal clip and stopped using it in that fashion. I now thread it onto my belt for my larger pistols. I think it will make the LCP disappear even better than the tiny little fobus holster I've started carrying it in.
 
I have a desantis supertuc for a 709 slim. Works perfectly. and for $18 from Midway, you can't go wrong.
 
I got a new UTG IWB holster off Ebay for $10 shipping and all. It fits my P11 like it was made for it. UTG is about the same quality as uncle Mikes. You will be served just as well by a pocket holster from your LGS or walmart.
 
I use an Uncle Mike's #3 pocket holster for mine. I like something softer and more pliant in my pocket so it doesn't rub my leg raw. With an IWB holster you can break the leather in by wearing it around a while. I do that a little at a time with my CrossBreed holsters. But I prefer carrying my LCP in my pocket mainly just because it fits and the UM holster works very well for $11. I like to fasten the holster to the bottom of my pocket so it doesn't come out with the gun though. It's not hard to do. But with my pocket holster I can get quick access to the Ruger and it looks like a billfold in my back pocket. I actually carry it in my front pocket most of the time though since my clothes rarely have back pockets these days.

I don't really carry that Ruger all that much though. I prefer something with a little more bite if you know what I mean. I generally carry a XDm in .40.

You mentioned carrying with any clothes with a IWB holster. That's the one thing I have a problem doing. That's why I sometimes carry the Ruger because some clothes just print with an IWB holster no matter what I do. And shorts generally won't stay up if I have an IWB holster on. I use suspenders most of the time so I can keep my pants up. Most of my shorts don't come with belts or belt loops.
