Holsters for S&W SW1911 4.25 inch

The 1911 has a legacy of reliability and innovation. We pay homage to that with every comfortable holster we make for the S&W SW1911 4.25 inch.

You'll find that every Alien Gear holster is designed to be as functional as it is comfortable, and as utilitarian as it is reliable. This is evidenced in the two IWB holsters, two OWB holsters, mag carriers and holster shells we engineered for this handgun.

Every aspect of the Cloak Tuck 3.0 IWB hybrid holster has utility. The backer features four cohesive textiles (neoprene, ballistic nylon, spring steel and thermo elastomer) that function together to wick sweat from the holster, provide support, improve retention and lend durability.

This IWB holster also has adjustable passive retention, cant and ride height. This allows the concealed carrier to control not only when they draw their firearm, but how accessible it is and how personalized their draw is.

This idea of personalization is seen in the Cloak Mod OWB paddle holster as well. It's a modular unit, given that the paddle clip may be swapped out for a belt slide attachment, and its cant and retention may be modified to personal preference.

Our other OWB holster for this Smith & Wesson handgun is the Cloak Slide — an OWB belt slide holster with an immensely durable leather backer. The Cloak Slide IWB holster, with its leather backer, has the archetypical form factor of a classic IWB holster.

These holsters, each of which are made on American soil, are secured by Alien Gear's Iron Clad Guarantee — including its Forever Warranty, 30-day test drive and free shell trades for life.

There are single and double mag carriers in either OWB or IWB configurations.
