- Great buy Review by Nelson
-
I bought the Sport Tuck Belly Band holster, it is the best buy I've made. I have been CCW for a couple of years now. I could no longer wear sweats or sport shorts. Their was not a safe way to carry in these type of clothes. Alien Gear has now provided a safe and secure way to carry while wearing sweatpants or sport shorts. I can now go back to wearing something comfortable on my off days. I had the belly band for about three weeks and have used it several times, it works great. It is comfortable to wear and is completely concealable. I highly recommend this holster. (Posted on 7/5/2019)Quality Price Value - Fantastic product. Perfect for hiking, running, or walking Review by Matthew

Prior to purchasing this product I owned and used a competing belly band product (the most popular one, you've probably seen it). I use a more traditional IWB holster most of the time, but in the morning I take my dog for long walks (sometimes full-on hikes), and on those I am often wearing shorts or sweatpants without any belt from which to suspend a more traditional holster. The belly band is perfect for that. However, I didn't like that on the competitors product didn't have anything securing the trigger other than some stiff cloth. In fact, I found that I was able to stick my finger into the trigger area on that product and pull the trigger. Not cool.Quality Price Value
So when I saw the video on AlienGear's upcoming belly band holster, I immediately placed an order for it. I've used AlienGear products before, so I was comfortable ordering sight unseen because I know they are an ethical company that takes pride in their products.
Today the Sport Tuck Belly Band showed up. It took me a little while to figure everything out, because I was not familiar with their new ShapeShift product line, and I was a little confused about how to adjust the retention (I had to adjust it quite a bit, as it was completely loose when I got it). But once that was done, I put on the holster, and I couldn't be happier with it.
Here are some things I like about it over the competition:
- The trigger is completely covered by hard plastic (kydex?)
- The holster can be adjusted to whatever amount of retention you want. There is no cumbersome strap to pop loose and potentially get in the way when drawing or reholstering.
- To band loops back through a metal buckle on the end and then holds down with Velcro. This gives it a two-to-one mechanical advantage over the competition's design, which means the band can be narrower and still be able to adjust as tight as you want it.
- The band is about half the width of the competitor's product. This means on hot days you will sweat less.
- The band fits in with their modular system. You can switch holster types, or even gun types (assuming you completely switch to a new gun, otherwise better to buy another).
The Sport Tuck shares the positive attributes of the other belly band I've been using. Specifically, it's very comfortable, and works with a wide range of clothing, even gym shorts and t-shirt.
Great product. If a belly band is what you're looking for, I can recommend this product without reservation. (Posted on 6/29/2019)
