Brown Leather Cross-Chest Bandolier Holster for Revolvers (Cartridge Loops)

Designed for field carry where belt holsters get blocked by packs, waders, or heavy outerwear, the Brown Leather Cross-Chest Bandolier Holster for Revolvers positions your revolver high across the torso in an off-center, cross-chest bandolier layout. The carry position supports a consistent draw while helping keep the handgun accessible when seated, climbing, glassing, or moving through brush.

Carry style and fit

• Cross-chest bandolier (off-center) carry: Worn diagonally across the body with the holster stabilized by adjustable straps.
• Pack-friendly placement: Intended to clear backpack hip belts, waders, and bulky layers so access is not competing with waist-worn gear.
• Stabilized movement: An adjustable chest strap plus stabilizing waist/belt strap helps reduce bounce and keeps the holster from shifting during movement.

Build and materials

• Leather construction: Crafted from brown leather with a structured holster body designed to support repeatable positioning.
• Reinforced stitching and finished edges: Built for field use with attention to durability at high-stress points.

Retention and draw

• Thumb-break retention strap: Adds a deliberate, secure retention step while keeping the release intuitive during the draw.
• Frame-based sizing for retention: Sized by revolver frame category (snub / medium / large) to support a more positive fit and smoother presentation.

Cartridge loops on the shoulder strap

• Integrated cartridge loops: Located on the shoulder band to keep spare rounds organized and within reach without adding a separate belt carrier.
• Load-spreading shoulder band: Helps distribute weight across the upper torso for more comfortable carry over time.

What’s included

• Brown leather revolver holster (frame fit)

Best use cases

Sizing and ordering notes

• Body size: Select your chest measurement for strap range and fit.
• Hand orientation: Choose left or right to match your draw hand.
• Gun make & model: Provide the revolver details for proper patterning and fit.
• Fit expectations: Leather holsters may require a short break-in period for the best balance of retention and draw feel.

Care and maintenance (leather)

• Wipe down after use with a clean, dry cloth—especially after sweat, rain, or dust.
• If the leather gets wet, allow it to air-dry naturally away from direct heat.
• Use a leather conditioner sparingly as needed to keep the leather from drying out (avoid over-oiling, which can soften retention).
