I recieved an order from Eric a few weeks back and I finally got around to getting a few pics. I needed something a little prettier so I ordered some black cherry and shark for my G19. Then I was persuaded into a shark belt (thanks Eric) and I also had to have a pocket holster for the P32.
Eric's black cherry is pretty cool. It's mostly black but with a slight purple hint. It shows thru more as the leather wears. As for comfort, it's about the most comfortable style of holster I've worn. A pancake conceals a wee bit better but I've got plenty of those. A real surprise is the pocket holster. It's thin, conforms to my leg and makes that thing disappear in my front pocket. My first shark belt and I love the thing.
Can't say enough good things about Eric and his work. He delivered exactly what I wanted and was great to deal with.

I'm so jealous! I'm still waiting on mine to arrive. I ordered a DC Tuckable in cordovan with a reinforced open top and shark trim. My shark/bullhide belt will be coming from The Beltman.
I bought the IWB for the XDM that Eric had on his sight already built and ready to sell and LOVE it. It has a 25 degree cant which helps hide the grip perfectly on my frame. I am 5'8", 175# and 31 inch waist. I can hide the relatively large XDM over a large t-shirt.
Getting new leather is like and any time you get one this nice it's so I say to you and I know when you wear it, your face will be all and you will feel like a
