Black Flat-Side Leather Paddle Holster with Thumb Break

A paddle holster is usually chosen for one reason: it balances daily comfort with quick on/off convenience. This flat-side leather paddle holster with thumb break is designed for users who want a stable OWB carry option that doesn’t feel bulky at the waistband.

Real-World Use Cases

• Daily OWB carry when frequent removal is needed (office-to-vehicle, range trips, property work)
• Training and qualification days where repeated draw cycles demand a consistent presentation
• Open carry or concealed OWB under a cover garment, depending on fit, belt, and clothing

Carry Comfort and “Flat-Side” Profile

This holster’s “flat-side” concept is intended to keep the holster’s formed pocket from pressing into the body the way some OWB designs can. In practical terms, that can mean:

• Less hot-spot pressure at the hip
• A cleaner ride when seated
• A closer-to-body feel for improved concealment under a jacket

Retention and Draw Control

Retention is managed through two systems working together

• Thumb break strap for added security during movement
• Adjustable tension screw near the trigger guard area to fine-tune hold and help control draw resistance

Paddle Attachment Stability

The paddle platform is designed to anchor at the waistband so the holster resists shifting during normal movement. This matters for:

• Consistent grip acquisition
• Reduced “roll” during draw
• More predictable positioning through the day

Sight Protection and Reholstering

Inside the holster, a molded sight channel helps protect the front sight path for a smoother draw. The design also supports controlled, one-handed reholstering when used with a proper belt setup and safe handling practices.

Materials and Build

• Leather: premium vegetable-tanned cowhide (molded for fit)
• Construction: molded leather body with hardware-supported retention adjustment
• Color: Black

Compatibility Notes

• Not compatible with red dot optics (as configured)
• Designed around standard handgun configurations. If a firearm has an attached light/laser or non-standard controls, fit should be confirmed before ordering.

What’s Included

• 1 × Flat-side leather paddle holster (Black)
• Integrated thumb break strap
• Adjustable tension hardware

Care and Longevity

Leather performs best with basic care:

• Keep dry; air-dry naturally if exposed to moisture
• Clean gently and condition occasionally with leather-appropriate products
• Expect a normal break-in period as the leather settles to the firearm’s profile
