Inside the Waistband Holsters

I am extremely close to introducing my first IWB style holster. The first model released will be a non-tuckable version, with other models soon to follow. Here are some photos of my personal P7 test model.

It is a smooth-in, rough-out design to help it stay in place. The back rough out is pasted, so it is "rough", but not abrasive. The front is only sanded, so it is a little more aggressive to help keep it in place. The belt loops are replaceable and interchangeable, so other colors, hides and sizes will be an option down the road. The rear loop is secured to a double thickness of leather, so the butt of the pistol will stay tight to your body. The front loop is attached to a single thickness of leather so it can bend and conform to your body which ever position you wear the holster. The Shark skin reinforcement aids in keeping the mouth of the holster open, plus it just looks cool. This model has extra material to the rear of the muzzle to help support the top-heavy P7. It will be an option for other models in a single or double thickness format. The final version will also feature directional snaps as an option, and they will be available as a post purchase upgrade as well.

Please let me know what you guys think. Critiques are very welcome as they help me provide the best service possible to you all.

Tuckable IWB Holsters

I have had several IWB designs in the works for some time now, and everyone has been more than patient with me waiting on their release. I would like to apologize for making you all wait. This has taken a lot more time and money than I originaIly anticipated. I am much closer now, and I need your help in deciding what to focus my efforts on the most.

What I need  to know now, is how you prefer to carry concerning IWB, and what features you find most important for an IWB holster. Please feel free to voice any and all opinions about what is most important to you, so I can focus my efforts on releasing the holster style that's most relative to the majority of IWB carriers first (with other variations to follow). Here are a few examples for what kind of topics you might have opnions on, but please don't limit your comments to just those. If it is important enough for you to have formed an opinion about, it is important enough for me to consider when choosing what holster style to release first.

How high do you like your pistol to ride in relation to your pants and belt?

What cant do you find most comfortable in relation to where you carry?

How important is it for you to have a reinforced mouth on your IWB holsters?

Do you have a stronger preference towards extreme comfort, or maximum concealability?

Do you prefer a tuckable IWB holster, or a standard style IWB?

What attachment method do you favor to secure the holster to your belt?

How many times a day do you put on or remove your holster?

I have already posted these questions on one forum, and I plan to post on others as well. Please let me know what you need the most in an IWB so I can at least get one model introduced in the very near future (the one with the features in the highest demand). Thanks everybody for all the help.

Here is a look at a couple of tuckable IWB prototypes I have made. Please let me know if there are any changes you would prefer, or additions you would like.
