Featuring a 3/4 shell construction, giving you full trigger guard coverage and adjustable retention. The Protos-M provides rigid protection where it matters most while maintaining a slim, flexible fit for all-day carry. Combined with a single-clip attachment, this holster offers quick, easy use and secure stability.

The Protos-M shell is also designed for flexibility and modularity—allowing you to swap it seamlessly onto our Dual Clip, Protos Heritage or OWB Protos-M backers, giving you multiple carry options without purchasing a completely new holster.

  • Comfort-Focused Fit: Lightweight, ergonomic design with absorbent mesh backer for all-day wear.
  • Adjustable Cant & Ride Height: Customize the holster position for the perfect draw angle and depth.
  • Exceptional Concealability: Slim, low-profile design eliminates printing for discreet carry.
  • Secure Retention: Precision-molded 3/4 shell keeps your firearm securely in place.
  • Smooth, Consistent Draw: Engineered for reliable, rapid access when seconds count most.
  • Adjustable Retention: Fine-tune the fit for the perfect balance of security and draw speed.
  • Versatile Carry Positions: Optimized for IWB carry at the appendix, hip, or strong-side position.
  • Sweat Guard: Protects your firearm while enhancing comfort during extended wear.

The Protos-M Single Clip IWB Holster is the ultimate minimalist solution for carrying both large and small firearms. Its lightweight, low-profile design makes it ideal for hot summer days when every ounce matters, while its 3/4 shell ensures durability and firearm protection in any condition. Its lightweight, breathable design ensures you stay cool and concealed, even in the hottest conditions. Whether you’re braving the heat and need to keep moisture off your body and gun or layering up for cooler weather, the Protos-M keeps you comfortable, concealed, and ready for whatever comes your way.

The

Single Clip Protos-M®

Our single clip Protos-M® now features a mesh backed, leather backer for added comfort, but please note this is not the same as our Dri-Matrix™ 2.0 breathable backer. In order to protect your pistol from moisture damage, we never allow for any ventilation directly underneath the pistol or the plastic shell. Since the backer on our single clip holster is so small, there was nowhere to vent that wasn’t directly underneath the gun or plastic shell.

Great Holster

Really awesome holster, looks great and is very comfortable.

Grip module printing CZ shadow 2 carry.

This holster with the Shadow 2 carry at appendix is extremely comfortable. I mean comfort that you don't really expect being that the weapon is on the heavy side and has the kind of pointed beaver tail that can stab you. The stabbing doesn't happen with this leather backing and the retention at first was so tight I had to go work out to get my gun out. With a few adjustments to the screws the retention is perfect now. My only issue is it needs a claw mod to keep the grip module from printing when carrying appendix. I ordered a claw from you guys hoping I can add it on. I read on the description (after I order it of course) in bold letters that it does not use a claw or accept a claw. I hope what looks to be an easy fix isn't impossible? Again I want to make clear this holster is extremely well made and comfortable beyond expectations. I just need a claw to prevent the printing. I'm a customer for life regardless , which is why it gets 5 stars.
