Kimber 1911 Holsters

Engineered to match the distinct profiles of Kimber 1911 handguns, Alien Gear Holsters offer secure fitment for models like the Compact 4-inch, Custom 5-inch, Pro TLE/RL railed 4-inch, TLE/RL 5-inch railed, and Ultra 3-inch frames. Designed with both traditional and railed configurations in mind, these holsters are available in IWB and OWB formats, including options like the Cloak Tuck 3.5, ShapeShift Core Carry Pack, OWB paddle holster, appendix carry, drop leg, and chest holster.  

 

All-Day Comfort, Even During Long Carry Sessions

Kimber 1911 holsters from Alien Gear prioritize ergonomic support and breathable construction to handle long shifts or extended range days. Whether you’re wearing a cloak IWB holster under a fitted T-shirt, a chest rig for backcountry defense, or an appendix setup for city carry, each design reduces hot spots and minimizes pressure points. 

Contoured shells and flexible backing materials keep your Kimber 1911 stable without sacrificing airflow or mobility.

Advanced Concealment and Printing Control

Effective concealed carry demands more than just a slim profile—it requires precision positioning. Our IWB and appendix Kimber 1911 holsters feature adjustable cant and ride height, allowing you to fine-tune for minimal print under lightweight clothing or layered outerwear. 

Even when seated in a vehicle or moving through crowded environments, your outline remains smooth and discreet.

Confident Retention and Smooth Draw

Every Kimber 1911 holster in the Cloak and ShapeShift lines offers customizable retention systems to match your preferred level of draw resistance. Whether practicing rapid draws at the range or carrying in an appendix position during daily life, you can count on consistent lock-up and a natural, intuitive drawstroke that supports real-world defensive scenarios.

Modular Adaptability for Every Scenario

From paddle OWB holsters for open carry to drop leg platforms for tactical setups, Alien Gear’s modular approach lets you adjust to any environment. ShapeShift configurations allow seamless transitions between carry types—appendix, IWB, chest rig, or drop leg—without changing your core holster shell. Adjust cant and ride height to suit your body type, movement style, and preferred engagement angle.

Ready for Optics and Aftermarket Accessories

Your Kimber 1911 deserves a holster that works with optics and upgraded sights. Our designs include generous sight channels and optic cutouts, preventing snagging and maintaining smooth reholstering, even with taller aftermarket sights or slide-mounted red dots. Sweat guards and reinforced edges further protect your firearm in dynamic conditions.

Superior Materials for Consistent Performance

Unlike traditional leather or nylon options, Alien Gear’s advanced polymer and hybrid backer construction resist sweat, heat, and shape loss over time. This ensures reliable retention and secure positioning after thousands of draws and everyday wear. 

Your Kimber 1911 holster stays dependable from range drills to duty rotations to long-haul field missions.
