Still like Leather especially Lou Alessi's work. Horsehide from Rusy Sherrick. In the Hot humid NE Summer's stick with Kydex but here the quality of construction REALLY varies. Therefore limit Kydex to KY-TAC, Cen-Dex & Mad Dog. These three Kydex makers all build their gear to the exact gun, not an aluminum slug, out of the thinnest Kydex practicable, making for a very compact holster with very little bulk especially compared to lesser makes. Also you won't find any sharp unfinished edges unlike others, the thick & bulky synthetic belt loops & snaps that allow their IWB's to change position while wearing or the thick sharp edged integral belt loops the "Stamped" appearing one-piece Kydex makers use. Both Cen-Dex & Mad Dog use very high strength SS rivits, opposed to the much weaker aluminum, and their holsters can be ordered specifing the level/strength of draw-retention you want. David Elderton's Ky-Tac uses tension screw adjustments with fine threads allowing true fine/micro adjustment that will not work loose once adjusted or require locktite to keep from losing the adj. screws unlike some of the other lesser brands.
