Alien Gear Holsters Reviews

I've only had it for a couple weeks, but this holster is definitely all it's cracked up to to be. Once I got it adjusted to fit the way I like for IWB,,it makes carrying my XDE feel as natural as a wallet with no printing. It's the holster to get. The amount of stuff that it comes with makes the price seem like a bargain.

This is my first purchase from Alien Gear and it will not be my last. I am very pleased with my IWB 4.0 holster. It is by far the most comfortable holster i have ever worn. My personal set retention on my 4.0 holsters keeps my Glock safely secured and easy to draw. I am impressed with the quality craftsmanship and features this holster provides. WELL DONE!

I just purchased the, "Cloak Hook & Loop Holster! This is not my first purchase at Alien. I also have the Shape Shift Kit! Also a Great system to own! This system I Purchased because as a CCW Licensed carrier I Live in the Chicagoland Area. Here there are too many Troubled people who go about to be trouble to others who are just trying to live and enjoy Life! When You are driving it is very hard to retrieve Your weapon when needed! Then it is too obvious to take Your holster off to put it within reach then to put it back on when You leave your vehicle! But with this system all I do is remove my weapon put it in the Cloak system under my steering wheel! If needed to retrieve Quickly I can! Then when You leave the vehicle You can re-holster without notice! Keep up the Good Work! I will always buy from Alien!

I have two Alien Gear holsters and will buy more. So comfortable that during a day of rangemaster duty, carrying a Glock 30S, I almost forgot that I was wearing it. Customer service has been excellent, very fast, knowledgeable and helpful. I highly recommend these people and their products. I wish their backlog wasn't so long ( a testimony to their desirability) so I could get my holsters faster.

I purchased this after watching several YouTube videos demonstrating and rating it. I really couldn't be happier. Highly adjustable, secure, perfect fit and it stays in place. Really, if you've ever carried and been the least bit uncomfortable or not 100% pleased with the holster GET THIS ONE!

It came the expected date, the material that the holster is made feels great and best of all now I can carry my concealed carry weapon inside my waist.

I've held off on my review of this holster for a year now, and after that year of daily use, I can say this holster is awesome! Conceals at the 8:00 position like a dream. The backing is extremely comfortable to wear, although I do prefer to wear an undershirt with it. No visible wear other that a slight "curve" that actually flattens back out over night. Great work on this setup AG! Cant wait to see what comes out next!

Great holster. Received my products after only 5 days in a European country. Excellent follow up and service!

I wear this holster for twelve or more hours a day and it is very comfortable! There was no break-in time and it has worked with everything I have worn so far.

A bit of background... I am short, sorta thin, new to conceal carry (but not to firearms) and unemployed. Money is not something I have a lot of and finding a holster that would allow me to carry my RAP in a reasonably comfortable manner while concealed was of utmost importance. I bought this holster, I don't like it, I LOVE IT!!! Carrying went from being a literal pain to being comfortable and easy. Sometimes I forget that I am wearing it. Buy this holster. It is worth it.

I have had the shapeshift core since Christmas of 2017 and carry every day, at home or away. My firearm is always with me. The option to carry based on how I dress or what I am doing makes this starter kit great. I have added a few more shells and just ordered the shoulder holster. The quality is there and I can attest to the security of my firearm. Today I was just starting to hang up Christmas lights on my house today. I was on the ladder and I missed a rung and fell off. I was wearing the Owb Shapeshift paddle holster with my Shield. I hit the ground , my ankle bent ninety degrees and I rolled backwards. The impact of me hitting the ground and then rolling over my weapon was pretty hard. My gun stayed right in its holster and the holster had no damage. The only retention I had was passive, no thumb release. I was very surprised because my gun belt took some damage. Great product! I knew your holsters were good but that made me a permanent customer.

comfortable,awesome,well built. Sometimes i totally forget that im carrying my firearm and fell asleep on the couch.

This is the most comfortable holster ive owned and i highly recommend this product.

My coworker gave me the holster set up for glock 19. Just got the shell for my cz75b. Customer service was great getting it ordered and answering my questions. I can already tell an improvement from my other iwb holster.

Great product, great service, good prices, good people!

I have had it for about ten months, I am very pleased with this product. It is everything you said it would be, I like the fact that it is four in one, whatever I need it to be it is and it only take seconds to go from one to the other. Thanks for doing what you said you were going to do, and making me think I got my money wroth.

Bought the shapeshift core pack back in June and absolutley love it! It's super comfortable and keeps printing to a bare minimum (if at all) . I just bought another pistol I plan on carrying and wasted money on other holsters only to eventually come back to alien gear! Trust me when I say these are some of the best holsters out there! I reccomend these holsters to anyone in the market for a comfortable, versatile, and well made holster!

As my first holster, I have to say I am very satisfied. After hearing great things before my purchase I had known I had to give it a try. This is for sure a quality product, forms great to my waist, and will be back to purchase alien gear products again!

I finally settled on a carry gun and didn't really expect that shells for life warranty to be so easy to work with. I have a Walther PPQ M2 Navy 9mm. Alien Gear doesn't make a shell for this gun but they make one for the M2. I contacted their support via email and they told me they didn't mind if I modified the shell to work with this gun. I sent them my shell and within a few days, the new one arrived. It ALMOST fit. About 2 seconds with the Dremel tool and it was perfect. Thanks for such a quality product and such a great attitude. I will definitely purchase again.

I'll start off with saying excellent holster and excellent company. As a relatively new everyday carrier, I did a lot of research before settling on Aliengear and when I ordered the IWB Tuck 3.5 (Right hand) it did not disappoint. Very comfortable and conceals the weapon well. The only learning point here for me was that like we hear about all new carriers, I tried IWB right hip and that didn't sit well for me, then IWB Abdomen and didn't like that. I ended up trying IWB small of back which I didn't think I would like and turns out it is the most comfortable place for me to carry. Unfortunately, I'm right handed with a right handed holster drawing from small of the back which makes the draw awkward. I'm telling any other new carrier because it took me three months to figure this out and if I had tried this inside of a 30 day window Aliengear was more than willing to work with me to swap out the holster. Not a big deal to me, I'll hold on to the spare holster. Just wanted to share in case someone else might benefit from it. Great company, great product!

Very nice mag carrier. I like the adjustable cant. My only gripe is the one size fits all body side pad. I bought this for a Springfield XD-S and it looks like this one could also be used for a glock 17. It's way too long for a little XD-S mag.

Fantastic holster! You can wear this all day and forget you're wearing it. Pistol stays securely in place. My only criticisms: 1) Getting it adjusted is difficult and instructions are sub par. You should have your own video on setting the holster up. I had to go to Youtube to find a third party review who demonstrated exactly how to set up (Thanks "Tactical Black Guy") without him I never would have figured this out on my own; 2) There needs to be an adapter or some sort of height adjustment for those who wear boots. If you wear boots over 4" you'll have to leave them partially unlaced as the holster will not fit properly with boots. Overall, a great product. If you work in an environment where waist carry is difficult to conceal, this is an excellent option. Conceals well. Comfortable. Cannot slide down. Gun stays securely in place. And the wrap around velcro cover gives an added layer of concealment. What more could you ask for?

This holster is perfect for my CZ PCR! Right out of the bag this holster fit my firearm without any fitment or adjustment. This holster fits my body comfortably in the five o clock position. I am very happy with the holster and will be buying another for my CZ Phantom and one for my wife's new Springfield XD-E very soon!

comfortable-versatile-very cool

I was unsure about purchasing an IWB holster, but after using it I love it. It is so comfortable, the majority of the time I don't even know it is there. I would recommend these holsters to anyone.

I have PPK and PPS m2 inside the waistband holsters. The best I've ever used by far and you literally do forget you're wearing them. However, to suggest now, as I read, that 6 is frowned upon because of an injury that could occur if you fell backwards you're silly in my opinion. I always carry at 6. A lot to be said about the speed of pull from A 3 or A 4 vs. A 6. Or, maybe we go appendix? They all have their pros and cons. Short answer, don't fall down. I got to ambidextrous pull and if you're in good shape, the gun sits between your muscle and you got maybe a half an inch protrusion. Perfect place.

IWB is awesome, OWB eventually you will have to use 2 hands to get your weapon in the holster, The back need to be higher and once on your side it pushes in making it very difficult to get back into your holster.

Excellent holster, well made, once on it virtually disappears. Can't tell I am wearing it. Forms perfectly to my Para Ordinance LDA 7.45. Retention is perfect

Too long of a story to tell, buy needless to say AGs warranty is beyond any that I know of. My IWB was run over a few times. The shell survived with just a few scratches, but the clips and weld nuts were ruined. I sent it back to AG and was informed a few days later that it was covered! Thank you AG, I can't imagine doing business with any other company.

Have been using this holster for almost 2 years and is holding very well. I have worn it while traveling and as much as a continuous 10 hours.

This is my second Alien Gear purchase and I am all the more impressed and satisfied with AG's customer service and product. Well worth the price. Quality 5 Star: A rugged sleek design which fits the piece so perfectly. Doesn't rattle around but sits firmly in each holster type. No mold remnants, very clean. Price 5 Star: Now if you want a solid holster, you cannot go cheap. Alien Gear is not cheap, but also not overpriced. They put hard work into their products to help you better carry to protect yourself. And with the price of this package.. man you cannot get a better deal. If you are thinking about getting this, go for it you won't regret it! Value 5 Star: This kind of goes along with Price, but with the price of this package it is well worth it. Not only does it come with several ways to carry your piece, but also the ease to change it around and not having to have multiple holsters. This 4 + 1 in one combo is worth about $200 separately. I recommend Alien Gear to anyone and everyone who does, wants to, or is looking into carrying.

I have been extremely impressed with this holster since I bought it. I bought it a couple of months ago and have worn it a lot since I got it. I have had no problems at all with it, and I have been very impressed with the quality of the holster. It rides comfortably on my leg, and is very easy to adjust. There are several things I really like about it, but I would say my favorite is that when I go hunting with it my gun does not get buried under clothes like it would if you had a shoulder holster or a hip holster. Always readily available as your hand naturally hangs right beside the gun. I also like the audible click when you holster the gun, and also how easy it is to change the angle at which the gun sits on your leg. If I was going to change one thing about the gun, I would make it so the gun stays closer to your leg. The design of the holster has the gun stick out further from your leg than necessary. It makes it more likely for the gun to catch on something. I have not had any problems with this, but the closer it stays to your leg the less likely there is to be problems. The holster was a little more expensive than I was hoping, but it was worth every penny. Great holster. Will definitely be buying through AlienGear again.

This mag carrier has been on my wishlist since it became available, and it does not disappoint! Complete customizable: adjustable cant, IWB or OWB, singe or double, paddle or belt slide (double). So many options all in one kit!

I currently own multiple Alien Gear holsters and shells for my various fire arms. Like most minded carriers, we never have enough holsters. I have purchased holsters from various other manufacturers but have settled on one manufacturer, Alien Gear. Every complete holster and shell I have purchased is outstanding it its quality and thought to detail. I currently have a holster for the Sig Sauer P365 which I love and use daily. I anxiously await the manufacturer of the P365 shell for the Crimson Trace laser. Thank you for a great product and service.

The degree of engineering that went through the design and function is exceedingly extra ordinary. From first tinkering with the mag carrier, you really see how much thought process went to the design. Although they do not ship to Philippines, but I still got one from a friend. You can compare to mag carriers that is in the market and you can really see the mile difference. You really get what you pay for. I am satisfied on my purchase. Good job alien gear!

I've been using this holster (almost) everyday for a few months now. Super comfortable. I don't even notice it's there anymore. By far, best IWB holster I've ever used. Lifetime warranty is hard to beat. I can totally get behind this company and product. Still waiting for the shell that allows me to carry my Springfield XDs with crimson trace laser tho. That would be my one complaint.

Friend of mine told me about this company, checked it out and was impressed. bought for my kahr cw45 and could not be happier, ordered late on a friday not scheduled to arrive until following thursday but arrived well ahead of schedule. plan on on getting mag carrier in near future.

At 70 I have tried so many leather holsters that were good holsters. I wear them and beat them up over time. Leather breaks down and is costly so I started looking for something new and high tech that was cheap. Men coming back from the Middle East told me about the Kydex holster the military uses. So I started doing research on YouTube and found Alien Gear Holsters. Not wanting to spend a lot of cash I purchased there entry level Cloak Mod OWB holster. I knew after a couple of hours that my Cloak Mod holster wasn't going to break down no matter how many times I accidentally caught the seat belt lock or door jam when carrying in the groceries. I knew that I made a good choice. The only thing that the Cloak Mod needs is a sweat barrier to protect that part of the hand gun that sticks up above the holster. If your looking for a rugged holster that gives you options then look to Alien Gear Holsters. I guess that I'll just have to save and up grade to the kit. My wife will love that.

Dont get me wrong, this is great for concealing, but as a female with larger hips, I have to be extremely cautious when wearing this. It's not comfortable if you will be sitting and wearing this a lot. Outstanding quality. I know I will have this for years and it will stand the test of time. Shipping was fast and service was wonderful. I would definitely recommend to anyone. I bought the one specific to the Springfield Xds 9mm.

I just received the Shape Shift ankle holster and just would like to let you know how much I like it. It is without a doubt the best ankle holster on the market. I carry a Glock 27 and the holster keeps it tight and it is the most comfortable ankle holster I have worn.

When I first got my concealed carry permit I ordered the shape-shift modular system as my first holster so I would have different options to see how I like to carry . I am glad it was the first one that I bought because it is very comfortable. I bought another firearm and wanted the shell for that one which Alien Gear does not make it this time so had to find somebody that did have it and I really don't like the way it sits or the retention of the firearm. They are the only ones that make the holster for that firearm with the laser that I have on it. So hopefully Alien Gear will come out with that shell configuration soon so I can switch between firearms and carry comfortably

I make my own IWB holsters and carry my p938 all day everyday. I recently got a RIA 1911 5 inch 9mm and the size is a little large for my to carry in one of my holsters. I decided I wanted to try a shoulder rig and the options with this one great. The only thing that I really DO NOT like it the elastic on the shoulder of the firearm side. I know this is going to wear out over time with the weight of this firearm. I did like the quality of theirs shells so much I just ordered the seat mount for my wifes Rav4 to carry her LC9 and a shell for my p938 for when I am in her SUv. Also ordered a pair of paddles just to have.

All around this is an amazing product. I have had trouble concealing my Taurus PT 92 w/ rail because of it's large size. I've tried some holsters out there and all concealed holsters just didn't work for comfortably, location or a tight feel. This holster all around solved all those problems it feels good, holds the firearm right almost to a click sound, and does not point the firearm at any parts you may not want it pointing... I will continue to expand my firearms and with so will always be buying a aliengear holster. Thanks for the quality, with a great price!! Tim

I tried my father's cloak alien gear holster and decided to buy the newer one (shapeshift iwb). It feels even better and can be changed in so many different ways. 10/10 would buy again.

This holster met my expectations and is truly comfortable. I will probably be back if I buy another concealed carry gun.

Good holster quality comfortable

I bought this holster for in the video it looked comfy and not too bulky. Upon arrival I put it on using different positions as recommended, but no matter what it rode to high so when I sat down I just get stabbed in the appendix (no pun intended). The holster is not very concealed either for its bulkier than it looks and I wanted it to be for a concealed weapon. I would not recommend this holster for anyone that is looking to conceal a weapon.

I've carried a Full size Smith and Wesson M&P on duty for 7 years. After I decided it was time to leave my local Sheriff Office and I needed to get my CC licence I wanted to carry something i was familiar with and knew I could use if the situation called for it.. This product is everything I can asked for being finely made and comfortable to wear.

I recently purchased the appendix carry expansion pack and i love how easy it is to take the shell off my 4.0 IWB and transfer it to the appendix carry expansion. Its so comfortable and i can do my everyday routine with no problems. Would recommend to anyone looking to get a concealed carry holster. Price is great and the way the holsters and the shells are made is just a dream. I will be a forever customer of Alien Gear. Thanks guys.

The only issues that I have with this product is that it rubs my side raw and it really digs into my skin when I'm sitting down. An undershirt would more than likely alleviate these issues but I can't stand wearing one so this holster is not for me. I highly recommend it, great quality and very durable
