    Default Open carry holster $100 budget

    Like the post says. I'm looking for a good open carry holster for $100 or less for a new sig P365 xl. Parameters as follows.
    Leather, kydex or hybrid.
    Semi concealable with a t-shirt.
    Something with some kind of retention ( kydex click is.enough).
    No thumb break.
    No paddle.
    Fits up to 1.75" belt.
    Would like something that can pass when somewhat dressed up or in shorts.
    Needs to be comfortable to wear all day.
    I've been researching like crazy and can't decide. Really looking for others opinions because normally I just buy cheap kydex and live with it. Finally decided I'm going for something nice.
    Thanks in advanced.

    Never used it, but the Safariland ALS is usually the go-to suggestion.

    In a perfect world the LGS would let you try on the holsters and not end up with a box of holsters that did not fit my requirement.Again I have several of the Mini Scabbards work well for all your described needs also.

    This is my recommendation as well. I have 7-8 DeSantis leather OWB holsters, but with a thumb break.

    I bought this for my FN 509 Tactical and don't like it at all. The"retention" button is so flimsy and doesn't always let me draw the gun in a timely fashion.

    I have one for my glock 19. Its my favorite holster for it. Unfortunately it is not very concealable.

    I personally would not want anything locking around or in front of the trigger.

    Bravo concealment makes excellent molded kydex holsters with great retention for most popular carry handguns. They can be worn tight enough to the body and still be concealed by your shirt if you don't want it exposed.

    I agree I have them for a number of firearms and use them in matches as well as in a number of self defense classes and never had an issue. I have also added the ALS guard to a few of them and still never had an issue drawing the firearm smoothly and quickly.
