Crossbreed Super Tuck IWB -
Links

or

Comp Tac ... M-Tac IWB -
Comp-Tac : Products

The M-Tac seems to have an extra layer of leather of support on the back. I have read good things about both but I seem to favor the M-Tac. I am buying one for my XD 45 compact.

If anyone has had experience with either I really would like your input. Thanks.

They are both good IMO. I had a hard time deciding myself, but finally went with the CrossBreed.

I went MTAC - fast shipping, awesome product, and easy to buy an additional gun paddle if you want to use it for a different gun later. Did I mention that it is very comfortable to wear as well. The same can be said about the Crossbreed but the extra peice of leather was the selling point for me. Glad I made the decision I did.

The Mtac has that extra leather piece that covers the heads. This is supposed to be more comfortable if you are wearing it against bare skin.

I would be concerned that the big seam where this second piece of leather is sewn would be more irritating than the smooth one-piece back of the crossbreed. I've carried my crossbreed on bare skin and the heads don't bother me at all. They are flush.

I know that neither holster will be as comfortable against bare skin as they would against a tucked in t-shirt.

I also wonder about the second piece of leather being finished. I don't care for leather holsters that are smooth on the backside, as they tend to slide down or shift easier. The suede type finish of the crossbreed stays in place much better than a couple of other high end IWB's I've carried.

Just some food for thought...
