I am in the market for a Kydex IWB. Here are the options I have found so far:

http://www.desantisholster.com/038.html

http://www.comp-tac.com/catalog/product ... ucts_id=61 (they have a ton of kydex IWB, but this one was my favorite I saw)

http://crossbreedholsters.com/beltslide.html

Right now I am leaning towards the comp-tac CTAC. If anyone has any other options, please post them. I have searched plenty and these seemed to be my only options for IWB kydex holsters.

What ever you buy, you'll wish it was the crossbreed, (unless it's the crossbreed)

I like my Comp-tac MTAC IWB holster that I carry my P30 in.

I just purchased an MTAC from Comp-Tac - hasn't arrived yet.

I went that route after reading the comments on IWB kydex holster on a different (much larger, national) forum, where a large majority of folks who, recommending this type of holster, spoke most highly of the MTAC. The Crossbreed was probably the 2nd most popular, but sheer numbers wise, was no where near as popular as the MTAC. And, there were a number of folks who had both, most of which preferred the MTAC.

Having said that, everyone who had one said they liked their Crossbreed as well, so I don't think you'll be unhappy with that one either.

I don't know anything about the DeSantis, so I can't speak to that one.

As I said, I have ordered an MTAC, but can't yet review it personally. I'm just summarizing the results of my research. Good luck, let us know what you choose, and how you like it!

I've gone completely over to the C-T.A.C. holster.

I think I have 5. I can conceal a full size Glock or Para-Ord on my 5'5" frame under only a t-shirt. My 642 just disappears. There are no comfort issues (although some prefer the version with a leather body panel). It is tuckable, secure, and lightening fast to draw from. TMK, I've never been "made."

IMHO, the C-T.A.C. can't be beat.

My M-TAC holster arrived today from Comp-Tac, for my Glock. I'm extremely pleased so far. Comfortable and secure.

I have to agree with Selurcspi.

Kydex has it's time and place. It's very thin, completely weather resistant, and provides a quick presentation. Below - a BearClaw Holster's "Hidden Asset" IWB.

I don't wear it as much as I used to know that Srigs made me an IWB that conceals very well and is comfortable.

Kydex has it's time and place ... it's a good thing to have in the collection. You might want to consider:

RM Kydex - http://www.rmholsters.com

Consider a Blade-Tech Ultimate Concealment Holster. I know a few folks that have 'em and like 'em a lot. The 1-1/2" belt slot works for both carry, and classes. 20% off this month, too.

I have a Bravehart from http://www.kytac.com/ that I really like. I use it to carry a Para P-12.

I really like the Infidel series from Comp-Tac. Not a large guy, but none too small either and I can comfortably carry my G22 or HK USP all day with no trouble.
