    Best holster out there!

    It's great to do business with a company that delivers exactly what they promise. Shipping was fast and quality is excellent. I have 3 of their holsters.

    This holster is phenomenal! It is very well built, the backing is high quality and looks great. It is also one of the only holsters that my hellcat pro with a tlr7 sub fits. This company’s customer service is fantastic, extremely fast response times and very nice,
    I will be purchasing another soon!

    A great holster for the Glock 43x. After adding a mounted flashlight, my options for a leather-backed holster became very limited. It is bulkier than my previous holster(Crossbreed Reckoning) but that's expected with more kydex. Still easy for me to conceal. The leather backer keeps the gun slide and a RMRcc off my skin. Would highly recommend this comfortable holster.

    I own several Black Arch holsters and love them all! Hands down the most comfortable holsters on the market. The gradient hybrid is the best model I own! Zero printing with this even with a light and red dot on my weapon. Highly recommend this company! Great customer service, fast shipping, and products that are second to none!

    Good quality holsters, as always. The full shell, however, adds quite a bit of bulk to it compared to the Protos. Definitely not as concealable as the protos was.

    what holster is right for you?

    Protos Heritage

    Designed with comfort and quality in mind, the Protos Heritage boasts a thin and comfortable full leather backer. Unlike our standard Protos-M backer, the backer on this model is even thinner, providing a remarkable level of comfort without compromising on durability. It molds to your body seamlessly, making it easy to carry your firearm throughout the day.
