Kimber Solo Holsters – IWB, OWB, and Belt Carry Options for the 9mm and CDP
The Kimber Solo 9mm is built for precision concealment and defensive reliability. Designed around a compact stainless-steel slide and lightweight aluminum frame, it combines smooth recoil control with rapid target reacquisition.
Every Kimber Solo holster in this collection is shaped to complement the pistol’s dimensions, ensuring a perfect balance of retention, comfort, and accessibility.
Each configuration—from inside-the-waistband concealment to OWB or belt carry—is purpose-built to keep the Solo stable, discreet, and ready for use in everyday or professional settings.
Discreet Everyday Carry: IWB Kimber Solo Holster
An IWB Kimber Solo holster provides optimal concealment while maintaining quick access and control. The compact frame and 3-inch barrel of the Solo make it ideal for inside-the-waistband carry, allowing users to conceal under light clothing without printing.
Precision-molded retention shells lock securely around the trigger guard, offering dependable retention while ensuring a smooth, consistent draw. Adjustable cant and ride height settings let carriers tailor the draw angle for personal comfort and speed.
Soft, breathable backers distribute pressure evenly, reducing friction during long wear. This configuration is especially effective for concealed carry permit holders who prioritize discreet, all-day comfort without sacrificing draw reliability.
Confident Open Carry: OWB Paddle Kimber Solo Holster
The OWB paddle Kimber Solo holster enhances draw accessibility while maintaining a secure, low-profile fit. Its contoured paddle base anchors firmly to the beltline, balancing the Solo’s all-metal frame to prevent shifting during movement.
This holster design is ideal for open carry, range practice, or professional training. The rigid polymer body maintains shape under stress, and adjustable retention screws allow fine-tuning of draw tension for consistent reholstering.
The open-muzzle design supports both standard and CDP configurations, preserving the Solo’s sleek lines and allowing rapid presentation without obstruction. Its ergonomics promote a smooth, natural drawstroke that aligns seamlessly with the pistol’s low bore axis and compact balance.
Classic Carry Versatility: Belt Kimber Solo Holster
A belt Kimber Solo holster offers traditional dependability and even weight distribution for everyday carry. The holster’s reinforced belt slots hold the firearm securely against the waistline, maintaining stability whether the user is standing, seated, or moving.
Designed to follow the Solo’s slim frame contour, it reduces outward projection while maintaining clean access to the grip. The holster’s retention system protects the trigger area completely, ensuring safety while drawing or reholstering.
This configuration is particularly well-suited for those who prefer consistent, visible carry options or who rotate between concealed and open carry setups depending on context.
Engineered for Kimber Solo Performance
Every Kimber Solo holster is crafted to fit the pistol’s distinctive engineering and precision components:
- 3-inch barrel and striker-fired mechanism: Compact and efficient, requiring minimal space while enabling fast target reacquisition.
- Lightweight aluminum frame: Keeps carry weight low without compromising structural integrity.
- Match-grade trigger: Protected by molded trigger guard coverage to ensure safety in all positions.
- Low bore axis: Aligns naturally with the holster’s retention geometry, minimizing muzzle rise and draw friction.
- Ambidextrous safety levers: Accommodated by the holster’s precision cutouts for intuitive use on either side.
- Compact profile: Allows seamless concealment, especially when paired with IWB or belt holster configurations.
This precision fit ensures the holster enhances the pistol’s performance rather than restricting it—providing confidence, consistency, and safety in every draw.
Kimber Solo CDP and 9mm Holster Compatibility
The same high-quality retention and ergonomic design extend to both the Kimber Solo 9mm and Kimber Solo CDP variants. Whether carried for personal defense or professional duty, each holster option preserves consistent alignment and retention across these closely related models.
OWB and belt configurations deliver fast, unhindered draw access, while IWB holsters maintain concealment under daily clothing. Together, they offer the flexibility to transition between on-body and range use seamlessly—without compromising comfort or firearm security.
Built for Precision, Designed for Everyday Confidence
From discreet inside-the-waistband carry to the durability of paddle and belt configurations, every Kimber Solo holster supports the pistol’s natural balance and reliability. Each option is molded to ensure a secure lockup and fluid draw motion, maximizing the Solo’s strengths in defensive and concealed applications.
Kimber designed the Solo for those who value craftsmanship and control in a compact format—and these Kimber holsters continue that standard, delivering the retention, comfort, and readiness professionals demand.
