Unlike the previous holster I reviewed, this one Review: Zorn Skinny Rig IWB Kydex Holster I ordered the normal style center mounted clip. They also make one with an offset clip, but it uses a thinner kydex sheet. What is interesting to note is the holster is lined with leather! To aid in maintaining the firearm's finish and the makes drawing and reholstering quiet and smooth.

Expected Lead Time: 7-10 Days

Actual: Ordered March 16, Shipped April 4th, Arrived April 6th

Starting Price: $85

Standard Sweat Shield.

Fit and Finish: Excellent no defects and no sharp edges

Warranty: 1 Year

It's offered in a wide array of mount options, I chose the standard, which is an adjustable cant. The clips are fantastic. The clip is curved which doesn't make sense at first until you need to take it off. The little gap in the center makes this effortless to take on and off.

With the standard clip the ride is low, if you need to sit in a car some adjustment may be needed.

I'm also not sure how the leather will hold up, I'm thinking the oil from the firearm may make it so it won't need any conditioner.

So far this holster has been extremely comfortable and conceals my VP9 fairly well even with the added width vs the Zorn holster

I've had one for several years and mainly use it when I need to carry my P938 tucked inside a dress shirt. The belt clip is barely noticeable to the mainstream zombies you run into on a day to day basis so there's little to no chance of being outed as carrying a concealed firearm. The low ride feature is great when carrying tucked inside a shirt as the grip rides just above your belt which is great for concealment. You're not going to quick draw when carrying in this manner but it's nice to know you have your firearm if needed. Great holster and like yanici said, nice people to deal with.
