What’s your carry position?

The concealed-carry mavens at CrossBreed Holsters are venturing into one of the hottest debates in the world of self-defense: Rear draw versus appendix carry. There are those of us who argue that the rear draw is tougher to learn than the appendix draw. Others among us like to point out the parts of our anatomy that we are muzzling every time we holster and reholster our appendix-carry gun. The fact of the matter is that everyone has a preferred draw and a preferred gun … and CrossBreed Holsters has you covered either way.

For you 4:00 folks:

The revolutionary CrossBreed SuperTuck is the most comfortable and concealable inside the waistband (IWB) holster you’ll ever wear. Designed exclusively and patented by CrossBreed Holsters, the flagship SuperTuck Deluxe is hand-molded to fit each specific firearm listed. It features a premium leather backing with a molded and mounted Kydex pocket. Versatile for carry options, the SuperTuck may be worn comfortably with or without your shirt tucked in, based on your personal carry style. The SuperTuck is designed to be carried towards the rear of your draw side – 3:30 to 5 o’clock for a right-hand draw or 7 to 8:30 for a left-hand draw. The SnapLok powder-coated steel belt clips are modular, enabling you to adjust cant and ride height. Two different leather choices, optional combat cut, and additional clip choices allow each individual to choose the combination of options that they prefer for their personalized, handcrafted holster.

More of an appendix/strong-side hip person?

The Freedom-Carry is the most versatile holster in the CrossBreed lineup. The slim design of this holster gives you the freedom of a comfortable carry, while being supported by the locking clip design. The Freedom-Carry holster will accommodate full size firearms, allowing you to carry in many positions from the Appendix, Cross draw, and strong side. The leather shape of the Freedom-Carry has just the right amount of leather to be very comfortable while keeping the frame and slide of the pistol from contacting your body. The pocket of the Freedom-Carry is mounted in a straight draw position and boasts an adjustable cant clip allowing the holster to be moved to the various carry positions. The Freedom-Carry also accepts firearms equipped with various weapon lights, lasers, and slide-mounted Micro Red Dot sights.
