Your favorite OWB holster and why?

For those that carry OWB, what is your favorite OWB holster and why?

I'm looking for an OWB holster that fits close to the body and conceals easy with a cover garment. Money is not that big of a factor but I would like to keep it below $120.

K&D's Laredo Defender or Comp Tac's combo belt slide/ paddle Kydex.

Both well under $100, hold tight to body & secure.

I carry an N frame revolver exposed sometimes. I use a Fist for it:

Good quality, secure holster with nice craftsmanship. Also great customer service and nice people. $60 plus shipping.

I like my Galco Concealable. Pancaked flat curve on the inside, gun specific molded on the outer side makes it hug your body pretty well. Open top and bottom, slots to fit a belt up to 1½ wide, and FBI rake/tilt. Around $80-$85, and well made for a "non-custom" holster, IMO.
Personal note: Although the FBI tilt helps in concealability, my personal preference would be for it to be just a few degrees less. For me I know it would make it just a tad easier drawing/reholstering. Nothing practice can't cure, though.

My current EDC - and for last 2 1/2 years is K&D Eagle Defender. Great comfort, ideal cant for me and - holds gun in as tight as any IWB in my opinion.

I feel gun just on lower ribs all the time - but not uncomfortably so.

Alessi CQC/S or 5Shot SAP, both attach to the belt with snaps on both ends making them easy to take on/off and conceal a full size gun easily. I carry a S&W 1006 in one and it disappears under a shirt!

Galco Side Snap Scabbard.

Fits close to the body and is easy on and off.

Milt Sparks EX-Companion

I love the Sparks excutive-companion. You can wear it all day and forget you have a gun on. The mouth is supported so you can reholster as easy as you drew it. I have been carring daily for 15 yrs. I have worn them to training classes and competitions. They are well made and priced around $90.
