I've been using Brommeland Leather for the last few years with my 1911 and G19. Good quality and very comfortable.

Welcome! I've got a DW CBOB and use a Crossbreed Super Tuck. Ditto on needing a holster with 2 points to connect to the belt. The other good thing about the Crossbreed (and I presume others like it) is that it fits my 5" Springfield MilSpec and 3" Kimber as well.

Right now, I am split between a VM 2 and a Crossbreed. If I go the route of a VM 2 style, I don't know how much I like the idea of the belt loops and may decide on a different maker that offers that style with belt clips(HBE Leatherworks or UBG Holsters). Give me your opinion of the 'loops.' Also, how does the comfort compare between the two? When I look at the crossbreed, it doesn't look like it could be very comfortable, but everything i have read says otherwise. |

You might want to consider Spark's Watch-Six, I have found it to be a great holster for the 1911.

I carry a 1911 IWB most of the time and I am very happy with my Milt Sparks VersaMax-II.
 Similar models can also be found with less of a wait.  Milt Sparks Holsters www.purekustomholsters.com TT GunLeather High Quality Leather Gun Holsters UBG Holsters

There is no best. Pick what you like. You may do like quite a few of us have done. Buy a few to get what "you" like, what works for "you".
Good luck.
