Am I the only guy that wears appendix holsters with tied sweatpants? I first started out with the bellybands and the like but, Houston Summer's steered me away from that. Just ordered a clinger and in the mean time I use a Desantis Insider for my P99c in sweats(which I'm in 90% of the time). I slide the holster on, tighten the drawstring, and swoop the waistband under to expose the grip since the insider rides hella low like I like. I'll post pics to explain later. It's actually more comfortable because while it's secure, the flex of the sweats allow the gun and holster to move with me as I sit and is never exposed when I get back up. Also, does not look like a morning wood like some other deep carry holsters I've tried in the past. No problem with retention either. Post your thoughts and concerns.
I agree with the post above. I see people every day with button up shirts untucked. And I know they are not carrying. And I also know people who don't put away their flannel until temps hit 80, and I know they don't carry.
Likewise, I wear a vest a lot. And that started many years ago, long before I could carry.
This exactly. Only time my shirts get tucked in are if i need to look the part: meetings, formal dinners/parties, church (the 2x a year i go...), etc. Basically any shirt that goes to the dry cleaners gets tucked in, i'd never wear them untucked as it just looks funny because i have my dry cleaned button up shirts lightly starched and pressed.
I actually wish more people would wear their shirts untucked, to me there is nothing more awkward looking clothing wise than a guy w/ a good sized spare tire looking like he's bursting at the seams because his shirt is tucked in lol. Personally what i find laughable is that for all the hub bub about how nice your clothes are and how put together you look, how your body itself looks tends to make a far bigger impression on people than those things. Speaking from experience as someone who let himself go for a few years and ballooned up to ~185 lbs and then got back down to ~135. The man makes the clothes not the other way around.
No Fritz, the mall ninja's all demand digicamo or if they are really with it Tiger Stripe in pink and black.
