I have seen a few guys using them at a few clubs I shoot at, I'm not impressed with them myself. I have carried a pistol for well over thirty plus years and I would never consider using a holster that I had to use both hands to pull out my pistol.
It looks difficult to get to, in a struggle.
Even if I used one hand with a G3 it is not a fluid movement to place my carry pistol in my hand.
I use a simple IWB horsehide Galco. It looks like a oval product trying to reinvent the round wheel.

the "two hands" aspect definitely concerns me. I was more wondering how the wear comfort compared to conventional iwb holsters.
It really brings new meaning to the old "Is that a pistol in your pocket or are you just glad to see me?"

Can anyone honestly say "So comfortable, I forget it's there" for ANY holster/model combo? I want a chest rig. THAT might be OK.

Ha...funny you mention that. I have two different shoulder holster rigs that I like a lot. And not (yet) a single IWB holster.

I love my thigh rig but it ain't much for...low profile.

I can honestly say with any of my iwb horsehide Galco's you easily tend to forget it's on your side until I bump my pistol against the door frame getting into my car or truck ( I'm left handed ) in most cases I carry a Sig 226, so a full sized handgun.
If I'm going out for a dressed up evening I tend to carry a sub-compact Glock.
Most folks that I know that carry everyday for personal or work eventually don't know its there, it's different when it's not there.
It's also very important that you use a quality holster along with a belt designed to carry a firearm on it. A crappy nylon Uncle Mike's holster and a regular belt is ok for around the property but not for everyday use.
With quality you get long life along with comfort and safety.
This Galco is everybody of 20 years old, and has always been my normal go to carry pistol.

You just need a pair of 9-11 tactical pants, and you would fit in with the tactical Timmy open carry crowd in the Midwest.

That I don't know, most of my leather is horsehide, it's always comfortable and wears like iron. I'm not big on any style of deep concealment in the front next to the twig and berries. But I would guess it would mold to where you carry it.
Plus with my jelly roll alittle over my belt, it just looks like a struggle to retrieve in the heat of the moment, and if at all with one hand.
I have tried a few different kydex holsters in the past few years, and for any of the action pistol shoots my son and I both use kydex but for CC it's just not as comfortable to me. It just doesn't break in like a leather holster.

I'm an original. I'd wear with gym shorts and a butt bag.

I'm no expert but Kydex is strictly open carry in my limited view.

Kydex is available for both inside and outside of the waistband.
You also can get " Hybrid " holsters that are leather where it touches skin and kydex for the firearm.
