Which IWB from Pistol Gear? - XDTalk Forums - Your HS2000/SA-XD Information Source!

Pistol gear has two IWB holsters that look like they have similar features but one is priced almost $40 more than the other. The two I am looking at are:

Blade-Tech "UCH" Holster for XD
Details
The Blade-Tech Ultimate Concealment Holster (UCH) is fully adjustable for FBI Cant or Straight Drop, allowing for the shirt to be tucked into the pants, completely concealing the firearm and holster. This holster is perfect for warm-weather carry. The s-hook attachment allows you to put-on and take-off without loosening your belt. The s-hook will support a belt up to 1.50" wide.
Model & Hip:Please Select...Subcompact, Left Hip Subcompact, Right Hip Service, Left Hip Service, Right Hip
List Price: $64.95
Price: $59.95

OR

Hume 715-M for XD
Details
This brown, inside the waistband holster is made of lightweight leather and form molded. The top opening of the holster is reinforced to aid in reholstering the weapon. The design works well strong side, cross-draw or behind the hip. This holster is compatible with all XD calibers.

Model & Hip:Please Select...XDSC - Right XDSC - Left Service - Right Service - Left
List Price: $27.00
Price: $21.95

I am looking for feedback from guys who have and use these. Is the $60 much better and worth the extra dough?

I have the Hume 715-M and use it daily. The holster is very well made and for the cost it's a great holster and rides very well.

No, I'm certainly open to suggestions. Thanks for the link and the advice. I know now I am also looking for something "tuckable."

Same here for my XD-SC sub 9MM. I like it and for the $$ it is a steal.
Hume 715-M for XD

I'd also look at www.comp-tac.com
yes, some of those holsters are a little pricey...depends on what you're after. most of theirs are tuckable.

I absolutely not recommend the Blade Tech UCH. I would have to look up my receipt from when I bought it, but it's been almost a year, and I can't stand it.

I'm also too cheap to buy another holster, so maybe I should't complain.
