    TT gun leather Slim XC.
    The Shield and it’s competitors are all about thinness (~1 inch thick).
    A holster like the Slim XC or other holsters with the clips to the sides of the holster body keeps the clips from “stacking” on top of holster/gun adding to overall thickness.

        I recently purchased a CYA with the single fat clip and I don't like it very much. The problem I have with it is that the clip gets in the way when you want to draw your firearm. You can't get a good grip on the gun because you have nowhere to place your index finger while drawing because the clip is in the way. I'm searching for another holster, one that has two clips.

          Q-Series Stealth Holster, it is a tiny "minimalist" holster with a very strong and secure steel clip that is also tuckable. Only thing about it is that it has no sweat-guard so you need to wear and undershirt/wife-beater with this.

            Try an offset single clip like the RCS clip. The Zorn Skinny Rig design comes to mind. I also dislike the giant single clip in the center.

The thing I find awkward about this style of holster -- with no clips at all -- is using public restrooms. Where do you put your weapon when you have to sit down? And then trying to get your t-shirt tucked in and pants zipped up while holding your pistol is like a juggling act. There is typically no place to set your pistol down; you can't put it on the floor for risk of someone seeing it under the wall of he stall. The last time I went through that juggling act I heard a faint "click" and was unsure where it came from. But after I got everything back together I checked the magazine and sure enough, somehow I had hit the mag release (its the stock version).
                Anyway I really like the Sticky, but I think I would prefer a soft holster with one belt clip to help keep things in place. What do the rest of you do with a sticky when you have to use a public restroom?


                I like Sticky/Clinger for casual use, but changed to the new AlienGear Grip Tuck recently for my G26 cuz it has the clip you are looking for......grippy, softer holster with a clip....comfortable, works fine

                    For what: Concealed carry or open carry?

                    I use an old Bianchi Tuxedo shoulder holster for my Shield. It has a holster for a 1911 Officers. It fits good enough. I did a lot of hiking in the mountains and it never fell out.

                    DeSantis makes a nice one (Sof Tuck) for inside the waistband carry.

                        Versa-carry

                        I picked up a Versa-Carry (yeah a Facebook ad) for occasional concealed carry on my trips to AZ. So far it's been pretty successful. Comfortable, doesn't print under t-shirts, both when I weighed over 325 pounds and now when I'm down to 230.

                        Not sure how durable for EDC all the time.

                        Didn't feel like getting a whiz-bang does everything IWB, Seemed a little bit much for something the size and weight of a Shield.

                        Going to put a TLR-6 on it and will need to look for a holster that will accommodate a mounted light.
