Shield Plus Holsters

[TarDevil]

I'm struggling to find them for this gun.
I'm looking for:

• OWB (preferably leather, not set in stone).
• Tuck capable IWB
• Pocket

Nylon only possible for pocket. Good passive retention a must.
What are you guys using?

In general, the leather holster makers don't do a very good job updating their websites for the guns available lists. The Shield Plus is fairly new, and holster makers may offer a holster for that gun, but just may not have gotten around to updating their websites.

I suspect the Shield Plus is a pretty popular pistol and most holster makers would be interested in covering a popular model like the Shield Plus. I'd find a holster you like and then email or call the holster maker to see if they cover the Shield Plus.

I don't know if they cover the Shield Plus, but for OWB the Mitch Rosen Upper Limit seems like a natural for a little gun like that. For tuckable IWB, I'd probably start at Tucker with their Cover Up model.

If I recall the Shield Plus will fit in regular Shield holsters.

Always liked those holsters. A little more than I wanted to pay, but I'll fork out the money when I have to for quality holster.
Just wish they spec'd the holsters before placing orders.

If I recall the Shield Plus will fit in regular Shield holsters.

Hope so!

Mitch Rosen has their Express Line, same holster, a little less expensive, with just a little less refinement.

For the most part the Shield plus will fit holsters made for the Shield 1.0/2.0. My Galco Combat master works for both equally. My Safariland 6377 ALS holster is a little snug due to the slightly wider grip area where it contacts the holster but is still very usable.

For IWB, I use an Amberide holster for my Shield Plus.

For OWB, I use a Don Hume 721OT for my Shield Plus.

While the Don Hume 721 says it’s for a Shield, it fits my Shield Plus perfectly.

I know for certain that the Plus fits the same holsters as the original Shield.
I’ve made a couple of leather holsters for my Plus using the original Shield “Blue Gun”.
My IWB is a JM Custom Kydex https://www.jmcustomkydex.com/p/IWB3-SW-MP-M2-0-M2-0-C.html
And I really like it a lot.
My leather holsters are coming along but not quite there yet with my design and stitch lines.

Doesn't look like it tucks.

They look great!

Thanks everyone for commonality info on the holsters. Great information.

Sorry, I missed the tuckable part in the original post. I haven’t tried Kusiak holsters yet, but their website offers a tuckable option, and they also make them for the Shield Plus

I have a HiddenHybrid for my LC9. it's actually an Appendix holster but I carry it at 4 o'clock. They make one for the Shield Plus, so got that one covered.

Guys order these slowly... she and the UPS driver are buddies.

JM Custom Kydex is always my go to. Their 2.0 is tuckable. And their OWB fits very close, one of the best I have used.

As for pocket, Alabama Pocket Holster is always what I reach for. I have one for e G26 and it actually is thin enough to allow me to carry it in certain bibs and work pants. I don’t see how you are going to carry a Shield in your pocket, but I wish you the best at it! Being a striker fired, I alway like a good Kydex holster to cover the trigger area on them.
