3 Best OWB/ IWB Holster Fits for Fall
Sep 22nd 2018
Fall doesn't play ball. The waning months of summer/early fall can be a little unpredictable weather-wise Crisp cool weather requires a light jacket or a heavier shirt, but things don't always work out that way. This time of year, summer has a way of barging in like an unwanted nephew from Jersey. Sure, you like the kid, but his presence creates some inconvenience and requires a change of plans.
Likewise, personal defense isn't something you just "throw together." Concealed carry requires planning and tactical considerations to be effective. But given unpredictable conditions, how do settle on the right concealed carry holster? Erratic fall weather can make your decision tougher, because temperature and precipitation can fluctuate wildly - sometimes on the same day. Imagine heading out with your belt holster and a jacket on a cool morning, when the sun pops out and temperatures climb into the seventies. You're walking around sweating like a fourth quarter linebacker because you can't dress down without revealing you're concealing. What you really need is a belt holster that can easily convert to an IWB holster on the fly.
Master Holster Designer, Gene DeSantis, is way ahead of you. IWB/OWB holsters aren't a recent development at DeSantis Gunhide; they've been an integral part of the product line for a long time now.
