Here are the main benefits of the LockLeather IWB:
VERSATILE - The cut of this IWB (Inside WaistBand / Inside the Pants) leather holster works great with Kimber as a concealed carry holster. Holster your firearm anywear on your waistline. Great for Appendix Carry, Strong Side Draw or Cross Draw; before, on or after the hip. Right and Left-handed versions available. Strong side or Cross-draw would use your dominate hand version (e.g. if you're right-handed a right-handed version would work for both).
SECURE - Jump, move around, ride a motorcycle, run, or lean back. The LockLeather retention clip has you covered! No extra moves needed each time to secure your firearm. Simply slide the Rapide (Black Ice) into the holster to lock, pull to release. A standard Phillips screwdriver can adjust the retention if preferred. Along with the 25,000 pound pressed form-fitted leather this IWB keeps your Kimber Rapide (Black Ice) in place making it perfect for everyday carry.
COMFORT - Right away this adaptable leather is comfortable and begins curving to your body. We also designed this IWB with an extended sweat guard to absorb any pressure from the back of the firearm's slide or hammer keeping it off of your skin as you sit or move around. After a few days of the leather breaking-in you’ll find this IWB to be even more comfortable!
QUALITY - Proudly 100% American Made Premium Leather. The leather is tanned with a quality black finish.
DRAW - As traditional for most IWBs the clip is positioned at a strait draw zero degree cant for your Kimber. The grip will remain at the ideal zero degree angle on the appendix draw. While clasped over the belt there is typically a little extra room in the clip to allow for a slight shift during the draw from either hip which will generally rotate the entire holster about 10 - 20 degrees for an idea draw from either hip.
SAFE - We not only reinforced the opening to make sure the leather doesn't bend when inserting the firearm, we also use thick steer-hide and designed the retention clip to cover most of the open area inside the trigger guard. Anchored in place by six separate points this holster and retention clip passed multiple fail tests.
CONCEALED - Our ultra-thin profile keeps your firearm hugged tight to your body without any unnecessary bulk or visible logos.
ACCOMMODATING - Fits any standard belt or heavy-duty gun belt up to 1.75" wide!
GUARANTEED - Use it every day. You have a full 10 Year Warranty backed by Urban Carry Holsters!
