We look at all different types of concealed carry holsters. People sometimes swear to have found “the best concealed carry holster ever!” However, as the infamous “drawer of holsters” grows, opinions can sometimes change.
We all have the big box of holsters that we've tried. No 1 holster is perfect for everyone, and it's hard to sort through all the different websites and reviews out there. That is why we have compiled a comprehensive list of the top industry Concealed Carry Holsters below. Each will link to either our own internal review of that holster or the very best quality review we could find on the internet for that holster.
Have we found The Best Concealed Carry Holster?
Of course not. We have found some we've liked (such as the KSG Armory Lexington) and some that leave a bit to be desired. Everyone may have certain preferences in a holster. Here are some holsters to check out as you head down the path of finding the best for your needs. Remember, part of making a holster selection is trial and error.
*We will continue to update this list as we add more holster reviews. If you are a holster manufacturer who feels awful we did not include you, please contact us.

PHLster Enigma
The Enigma is not a holster per-se. It is better explained as a chassis that your holster mounts to. The Enigma is a great option because you don't need to wear a belt. I think it's the best alternative for those who like the idea of a belly band, but want the comfort and security of a traditional holster.
Key Strengths: Comfortable, concealable, works with any clothing
