The “Inside the Waistband” (IWB) holster is another excellent selection for the concealment solution. If you prefer your shirt tucked in and intend to only wear perhaps a short leather jacket or something similar, These holsters ride inside your pants with only straps or a retention clip visible outside your waistband. Typically this holster is worn slightly back just behind the crest of the hip on the strong side. This style provides excellent concealment and holds the firearm very securely. A short windbreaker or jacket will completely cover this type of holster. The tension of your belt pulls the gun in toward your body, enhancing concealment and rendering holster retention snaps unnecessary. The negative side of these holsters is that they are not quite as comfortable as the belt holster. In my experience, they tend to be a bit harder on the finish of your sidearm. The IWB holster also requires that you use a belt that is approximately 2" longer than you would normally wear. Tomorrow‘s installment, I indent to write about the shoulder holster.
