Cross-draw carry is very comfortable for those who have the abs to pull it off. Can be a retention threat, though. I don't carry cross-draw (ahem), but if I were to do so, I think I might want a holster with a retention strap and a solid belt loop rather than a single clip.

We need many more women CHLers. Good on ya!

1. Yes, XD9 Sub compact, Slide is shiny due to holster wear. It shows i always carry. Since that picture last summer I have installed Truglo TFOs and that is a major advantage at night. Also got some pearce grip extensions for the carry magazines.

2. No retention issues. That is a picture of my back. It is in the 5 o'clock position and i use my right hand. No cross draw. I run, jump, and have tumbled a few times with no issues of slippage. NONE.

3. Retention strap is extra time that is not wanted when trying to unholster in a in a life or death situation. Single clip works great for me. Best holster for the buck in my opion. Highnoons Split Decision Holster

I also have a Highnoons Topless holster that is lined. Used it once or twice. its an OWB and while more comfy, only my winter jacket will conceal it.

This is the summer time setup. Under Armor shirt is to keep sweat off the me and the XD. Has an added bonus. Incase of a accidental exposure caused by wind ect. Blends in with the slide.
