Find the Perfect Gun Holster: Why Kydex Is the Top Choice
Choosing the right gun holster is one of the most important decisions a firearm owner can make. The ideal holster keeps your handgun secure, accessible, comfortable, and protected from damage—whether you carry daily, train regularly, or use your firearm professionally. Among the many materials available, Kydex holsters have become the leading choice for reliability, customization, and long-term performance.
At Just Holster It, we design and manufacture high-quality Kydex holsters built for both experienced shooters and new concealed carry holders. With hundreds of customization options, light and laser accommodations, optics-ready designs, adjustable retention, and multiple carry configurations, we help every customer find the perfect holster for their exact firearm and lifestyle.
Why Kydex Holsters Stand Out
Durability That Lasts
Kydex is a heat-molded thermoplastic designed to withstand daily use without wearing out. Unlike leather, it doesn’t stretch, absorb moisture, warp, or collapse, making it ideal for long-term concealed carry and harsh conditions. Whether a holster is worn inside the waistband during summer heat or mounted on a duty belt, a Kydex holster retains its shape and performance day after day.
Superior Retention and Draw
A major advantage of Kydex is its precise molding. Since each holster is formed to a specific firearm model, retention is secure without relying solely on friction. This ensures:
- A reliable “click” when reholstering
- Smooth and consistent draw
- Protection from accidental dislodging
At Just Holster It, many models come with adjustable retention screws, giving the shooter full control over how tight or loose the draw should be.
Consistency in Every Condition
Rain, sweat, humidity, or cold—Kydex remains stable. Holsters made from this material don’t soften, crack, rot, or distort due to daily wear. This makes it a favorite among military, law enforcement, competition shooters, and concealed carriers who need dependable performance every time.
Choosing the Right Kydex Holster for Your Carry Style
Inside the Waistband (IWB) – Ideal for Concealed Carry
IWB holsters offer deep concealment without sacrificing speed. Our IWB Kydex holsters are available with:
- Adjustable ride height
- Adjustable cant
- UltiClip, soft loops, or steel belt clips
- Single or dual clip configurations
Whether you prefer appendix carry, strong side, or cross-draw, these holsters mold close to the body and provide comfort for all-day wear.
Outside the Waistband (OWB) – Comfort and Quick Access
OWB carry is popular for range days, duty use, larger firearms, or anyone wanting a faster draw. Our OWB Kydex holsters offer:
- A secure but smooth draw cycle
- Multiple belt mount options
- Durable shell construction
- Light-bearing and optic-ready models
These holsters ride tight against the hip, giving a stable feel while still maintaining concealability with the right clothing.
Custom Options for Lights, Lasers, and Optics
More gun owners today run attachments, and not all holster brands are able to accommodate them. Just Holster It is known for offering:
- Light-bearing Kydex holsters
- Laser-compatible designs
- Red-dot and optic-ready cuts
- Holsters built to order for specific configurations
Whether it’s a Glock with a Streamlight TLR-1, a Smith & Wesson M&P with a Viridian laser, or a Byrna launcher with accessories, we build holsters that fit your gear exactly—and securely.
