Thank you Crossbreed!!!!

Took just 19 days from order to delivery to receive my supertuck today. Messed with the different adjustable holes for an hour or so in front of the mirror before i found the perfect combination. Great holster. Even though it's not broken in yet, this thing is incredibly comfortable. I was carrying a kahr mk40 until today. Now as of today, I will be carrying an xd subcompact. Despite my xd being bigger and heavier than my kahr, it actually conceals better and carries more comfortably in my new supertuck than my smaller lighter kahr did in a different brand holster. Unfortunately I am still using my Dickies belt so I don't feel that i can give an accurate review until i get a good quality belt to go with my holster. I have a wilderness instructors belt, but I find that unless I cinch that belt so tight I can barely breathe, the belt is pretty useless. Incredibly my walmart dickies belt works better than my wilderness. Luckily I am awaiting my Beltman belt. I ordered the beltman belt the same day (Feb. 22nd) so it shoukd be here any day now. The combo of the 2 should be outstanding, I really can't wait. I will post a review with pics of my new carry combination soon enough.

I'm insanely jealous. I'm still going to be looking for mine, even though it's only been five days

It's not the prettiest horshide holster I use, but it sure is the most comfortable. With the velcro clips (which I shortened a bit to fit under my belt) the 1911 is totally invisible with the shirt tucked or bloused over the grip. I don't think the belt is as much of an issue with this IWB as it is with OWB holsters. I've cut the leather and trimmed the kydex so nothing touches my fingers or thumb in a full grip, and when (if) summer comes, all I need to do is pad the bare skin from checkering on the Ultra CDP grip. Thanks, Mark at Crossbreed for the great service, too.

Yeah, +1 Crossbreed. People that have not purchased a Crossbreed does not realize just how comfortable it is. I was concerned when I ordered with the generic looks of the holster. But since I had already tried a few other holster makers I thought one more would not hurt. I was shocked at the comfort of this simple designed holster. Short on looks, but excellent on comfort.

Yea Crossbreed

+2 on the Crossbreed. I carried my Hi-Power to the range today. With several friends we setup several IDPA stages, shot for two hours, ate lunch on the range, shot for another two hours and last broke down the targets and stands. During this six hours of fun I was unaware of the weight of this 32 ounce pistol. Thank you Mark, for your excellent comfortable holster.

I spent an entire Saturday walking around at home with mine on to break it in. The comfort level is amazing.
