Alien Gear Holsters Reviews

Great quality and very comfortable. Awesome value for the price.

I ordered this holster soon after it became available. I soon discovered that it was the incorrect model and the model that I needed was not yet available. After a quick chat with Angie in CS. She refunded the full amount and apologized for the oversight. A couple of weeks later I received a call from Angie explaining that they were now offering the holster for the model of pistol I needed. Not only did she take not of what I needed and follow up when available, They shipped me the new shell at no cost to me. Absolutely incredible customer service! I will most defiantly recommend AGH to anyone in need of a quality holster.

I found these guys from searching online for a holster for my dinosaur Ruger P94. Found out they're in my area. I went to the retail shop, ordered my holster, they made it and had it to me in less than 2 hours. Quality is amazing, fit and feel is superior to any other holster I've owned for my pistol. Thank you, thank you, thank you. You guys are amazing and the quality is excellent along with your amazing customer service.

Im not real pleased with the quality of the design. Raw rough leather with sharp metal hardware doesnt go well against skin. Perhaps I was looking at things wrong when i ordered, but never the less no holsters are worth a damn in this condition. At any rate, I was looking for comfort in this holster and didnt find it. I do however have an idea.. Taking it to a shoe shop and having them redesign the back so its wearable and not slicing me up. Wish I could share a photo. Consumers need a 360 view of this item so they're not mislead. Sry

After a few weeks of wearing the Alien Gear I'm proud to say its comfortable and easy to conceal. I have shells for 4 now. I love how versatile they are. Easy to break down and set up a new holster. Highly recommend it.

The new dual-mag holder is exactly as advertised. Versatile, well made, and very functional. The engineering of this holder is far superior to others I looked at. With all the options and the adjustable tension, this makes a great holder. Two single IWB holders, a dual holder, and rigid belt holder + extra parts. The price is VERy reasonable when compared to other holders (especially when considering the options). I am a proud owner of multiple AG products and this new mag holder is so good that I just ordered one for my son.

Bought this holster at a suggestion from other IWB carriers. While the IWB didn't feel super comfortable to sit with, I figured I would just move it to OWB. I found out the hard way the thumb release shell doesn't lock my glock 19 in, and the pistol can just fall out of the "holster". So now, have a holster that isn't comfortable IWB and is slop OWB with a failed thumb release mechanism. Be careful what you buy. This is probably one to pass on. Will be returning this immediately.

Not much to say, great product and would highly recommend. VERY comfortable and keeps the magazine where you put it. Been over a year and haven't had a single issue with it shifting while wearing.

I use this holster on a regular bases on duty and it's one of the most comfortable and easy to use I've ever had i would highly recommend especially when similar one's from other brands are alot more expensive

I have been searching for a concealed carry holster for my S&W 380 Bodyguard for awhile now and then came across the Cloak Tuck. It is just as advertised. Fits perfect, distributes the weight perfectly across the belt, and has eliminated the issue of printing. I highly recommended it,

First ,Alien Gear is my go to in a holster! This is the first inside the waist band holster and it so awesome that it comes with accessories and tools to make sure it is going to fit the way you want it. The holster is perfect plastic that is molded perfectly to my pistol. The screws do not back out and my pistol can be angled to my liking. Thank you

Very disappointed in the holster . Had high hopes for it but the paddle attachment is useless and fit is only so-so . Firearm rides too high with belt attachment and is really noticeable when concealed . Would not recommend .

First, off I just want to say that I love the whole shapeshift idea, buy one holster, and use it for many different carry positions just brilliant! Secondly, I've owned many different holsters and have never been able to successfully pull off the appendix carry without it looking like I've got a gun in my waistband. That is until I purchased the Alien Gear ShapeShift Appendix Carry Holster. This holster is amazingly comfortable, very concealable, and will have you wanting to carry your firearm more. Which in my opinion is very important. Oh did I mention they also back up their holsters with a lifetime warranty? No, well they do and I will not buy any other holster than Alien Gear from here on out. Great job guys!!

I had to exchange my original size M for a L.. It was easy and fast. The best exchange I had for anything.

I am impressed with the quality of this holster. It came with many spare parts and a nice Alien key fob logo. Nice touch.

I bought one of these for each vehicle and I use them with the ShapeShift shell. Works great!

Wore it a few times and it broke getting out of the car... Its pretty bulky as well for a concealed accessorie..

The core carry pack is a great bundle very versatile, the holster fits my Glock model 19 perfectly. The instructions are easy to follow to switch platforms that come in the core set. I am very happy with Alien Gear.

I placed my order at 10am on Monday. And had it in my hands 945 on tuesday. Unbeatable. Me being inpatient with my orders. I paid for the 1 day shipping. But I still expected at least a 5 days lead time minimum. I have had it on for the past hour and a half. And after 5 minutes. I forgot I was wearing it. Mobility and comfort are out of this world. I will be ordering the ShapeShift for this gun in the future. Thank you. Absolutely incredible

Love the cloak shoulder, it is very comfortable to wear, in the summer i wear an iwb conceal holster in my shorts but in the winter i almost always wear bib overalls so i needed a nice shoulder holster for my CZ Po7 9mm so i can carry under my jacket, this works perfect. Easy to adjust. Leather is great quality and is a little stiff when you get it but breaks in well after a few days. I will be buying another one for my 1911 45 acp

got this holster a few months back for my glock 17. first look it seems large but simple and secure. very glad they included different size levers and thumb buttons. after some use it still seems incredibly bulky and the mount for the belt is very loose even when tightened all the way. this was my fault for ordering the low mount but it is very unstable and insecure (at the belt) due to how low it is compared to the belt. hand gun is very secure and fist perfectly into the holster. level 3 retention is extremely easy to use for the shooter and feels much safer than level 2. overall glad i own the holster but could use some improvements at the end of the day.

This OWB is great quality but prints horribly. No matter what I try to do it is obvious I am carrying. Very disappointed. I had very high hopes but I do not recommend.

When I received the ShapeShift Core Carry Pack I never expected I would use all the different combinations.. My favorite is the IWB Cloak tuck, l wear this everyday possible. I like having the ability to switch it up with the appendix and the paddle holster. I have bought other ShapeShift shells so I can carry any of my guns by making a few quick changes.. This is the best holster I have ever purchased! It is very comfortable and durable, I never leave home with out it! Now I'm waiting for the ShapeShift shoulder holster to get here.

I have had outside the waistband and inside the waistband conceal carry holsters for most of my adult life. This is by far the most comfortable inside the waistband holster. I was able to adjust the tightness of the holster to secure the weapon better with the spacers they provide. I have had the holster now about a month so I cannot speak on durability. The only complaint i have is the time it took me to get the holster. Other than that I am completely satisfied.

This is truly a very comfortable holster. It can be adjusted to fit just the way you want it. It also secures the firearm well so I don't have to worry about it falling out. I also love how it is easily interchangable with the pocket holster so I can switch back and forth at will.

Very well pleased with my Holster, well worth the price, and lead time. It fits very comfortably, and secures the firearm properly. Adjustment is simple, and easily accomplished. Perfect all around. Thanks A.G. !

I have had two other pocket holsters, a leather one, and a cloth padded one. This exceeds the others by leaps and bounds. I never felt safe with the other ones but the design on this one makes me feel very safe. It still prints a little but not as bad as the cloth holster. It's easy to adjust, easy to draw and stays in the pocket as it should upon the draw. I highly recommend it.

Two main complaints, The first one has to do with one of the screws seem to screw in much tighter than the other 3 stand-offs. It does not seem to affect the threads of the screw, might be a bur or something. the second had to do with customer service info. I asked the rep if one type of sights would fit with the holster, I was told no. After I received the holster not only could I use the sights I asked about I could use a red dot. I don't blame the person because I assume they don't assume responsibility if your sights don't fit compared to stock sights. Is it comfortable? Yes Is it worth the money? Probably, time with tell but from the first month, it's worth the price. Good retention? Yup, I changed out 2 of the bushings to get a tighter grip on the trigger guard. I'll probably be looking at their shoulder holster in the future.

I was a little upset when my order didn't ship at the expected time. I contacted customer service via the chat feature and was told I would have to wait a few more months due to a backlog in production. I then called customer service to speak to someone and learned there was a tweak in the design for safety purposes. The customer service agent was very helpful. My order was sped up and I received my holster about a week later. Well, this week my department had qualifications and the holster worked like a champ with very little carry time or practice. It was worth the wait and I highly recommend the holster. The only thing I need to work on is re-holstering. I run a light and the first holster was a hand me down from a partner. I'm glad I made the switch. I look forward to carrying this for the foreseeable future.

I am on my second shell and I still cannot get my gun into the holster or out of it, without a huge amount of pressure. The one I have for my Shield works perfect, they cannot get my Smith and Wesson 9mm MP 2.0 to work. Unless I take the clips off the shell but then it comes apart Not impressed!

I one of the best holsters I've gotten. And for a large frame M&P 40 it feels perfect.

I have had this OWB holster for about 3-4 years now and its the most comfortable one I've had. I now need to buy another one because the leather is starting to wear pretty bad, but its been on my hip probably 350 days every year.

I love the design, but it sticks out way to far for me. I like to have an owb but close to me. this has almost 2" of space between my body and the actual holster.

I am really a fan of Alien Gear holsters. I have paid a lot more money for a holster, that has a lot less craftsmanship involved. Best value I've seen. I really wanted to try the shapeshift but my Hellcat wasn't available when I ordered. The 3.5 is a nice upgrade from the 3.0 version IWB so I am not disappointed.

I bought my iwb on my sons advice and he was right I wear mine all day never a problem. Great people work with and its made in USA.

Very comfortable holster. Well made and easy to adjust for custom fit. Horrible pistol release. If I were to ever need to draw the pistol in any semblance of a hurry, I would be dead. It almost takes two hands due to the catch not releasing correctly. I thought I had it figured out, but it still sucks. No matter how the thumb button is pressed, the hook doesn't fully retract and the pistol needs violently jerked.

Very impressed with this holster. Very comfortable and like the click it does to let you know my pistol is secured.

was well worth the wait , totally satisfied . also ordered one for my wife and will be getting shoulder holster as well

I love my drop leg for my VP9 However, the thumb release needs work. My Safariland for my 509 is very easy to use and quick release. My release on this holster needs some type of reinforcement to keep the release from bending so its easier to draw from the holster

Glock Fits like a Glove inside Chest Holster. For me, I can wear Holster over either shoulder. There are many Details that I Like about this Rig, but I only have 1 issue with the Stitching on the Nylon Strap with the plastic buckle, that goes under my Right Arm (Right handed Holster).

I bought this product on the recommendation of a friend back in 2015. I wear it almost everyday esp. at work ( towing cars) where I'm constantly moving in every direction. It's very comfortable and secure. I just had to deal with Alien Gears customer service WOW was my experience. Nayeema B took care of everything quickly and efficiently. I'm happy to push Alien Gear products in all of my classes, as I'm an NRA Instructor. At the end of my class I have my students guess the number of weapons on me. Rarely do they see my Alien Gear holster and only one has mentioned the pen sticking out of my pocket (Bic by the way). Stay safe and carry my fellow 2A patriots.

I have had my iwb holster for about two years now and I wear it every day. I could not be any happier with the quality and fit of the holster. Most of the time I wear it in front of the right hip and almost forget it is there. I used a Dremel tool to modify the shell to accomodate a Crimson Trace CMR 206 laser on the rail and it worked like a dream. The same shell works for my Springfield XD45, XD40 and my EAA Witness 10mm. I am thinking about buying another one.

This holster is Fantastic, it does what I need it to do. The only complaint i have is a small detail which is in my eyes an easy fix. Printing from the handle, I'm using the Taurus G2C and I still get a little printing from the handle. Most holster manufactures incorporate a stem on the belt clip that pushes the belt out and the weapon into the body, eliminating the printing you see from the handle. The reason why I believe this to be an easy fix is because the parts on this great device are interchangeable. Redesign the clip for the appendix holster and I'll be the first to buy it, That's a Guarantee!

Ordered this product about a month ago was informed that could be possible 4 to 6 weeks for shipping was not upset about that at all. When I finally did receive the product the product is Bar None above other holster companies because I have several other holsters, still getting used to it but definitely love the fact that it fits on me so perfectly so smug and nice my firearm fits in their beautifully don't have to worry about it ever fallen out or getting caught up or or misfiring or anything like that product Bar None the best on the market couldn't be happier

Purchased this holster for the Sarsilmaz ST9, 9MM. Holds the hand gun quite well throughout the day. Even has survived Tucson AZ extreme summer heat. Recently purchased a Sarsilmaz ST45 .45 ACP. Lo and behold it also fits the same holster. My EDC has gone from 9MM to .45 ACP. Thanks Aliengearholsters. Excellent Product, Superior Craftmanship, Veratility and Reliability. Thumbs way high!

The stitching, the molded Kydex, the adjustable tension on the holster, smooth exit and entry into the holster, the fit around my waist with the adjustable buckle retentioner and it come in my favorite color, Black!! Just a quality piece from start to finish, I couldn't be any happier with my purchase!

Black Leather is much better than Tan. Fit is good. Not sure if it is worth the wait though.

I purchased the ankle holster in 2018 and I've worn it almost everyday. It has certainly held up to the wear and tear. I recently misplaced my ankle strap (weekend camp trip) and I messaged Alien Gear. FREE replacement to my door in just a couple days. What an awesome company. Will do business again soon.

Love this set up. Easy to install and transport from vehicle to vehicle and I don't have to drill holes in my truck! The retention is spot on, and I really like the thumb release button. Would highly recommend this Shape Shift Driver Defense Holster
