I used one when I first started carrying. It definitely wasn't for me. It felt like I was wearing a belt under my clothes all of the time. I'm guessing this is what a girdle must feel like. :wink:
It also was really uncomfortable when I went out to eat because I could feel the grip dig into me. I ended up going with Mexican carry for years and years with no holster. I switched to a small of back Kydex holster and now am using a Crossbreed MiniTuck.
I recently bought an Ultra Carry Soft Shoulder Holster. It's like a 4" belly band worn above the belly held by elastic straps and an elastic shoulder strap. The holster has a retention strap and it has 2 slots for mag carry. It was $32 online at DeepConceal.com.
I wear it around the house when in sweats or shorts and it is very comfortable. It conceals very well so can be worn anywhere. So for me, I like this one.
I have the Galco Underwraps bellyband with the leather holsters and it really isn't too bad when I wear my Kahr CW9. It will probably be sweaty and itchy on really hot days, but for use with sweat pants or gym shorts I really like it.
I have used mine with my Glock 30, but switched to a Galco royal guard years ago. I don't like the belly band for a double stack or other somewhat heavy gun. Now I'm using the same belly band with my LCR, but only until my Supertuck shows up ! The LCR rides ok in the BB in cross draw, just behind my left hip.
Don't liked them. For about 30 min maybe but no longer for me
