Re: IWB vs OWB

Post by No Bama Man »

I've always carried IWB. Started with a bottom line nylon holster which worked fine but just had to buy a leather Simply Rugged OWB holster which converts to a IWB holster with the addition of leather loops for the belt. Fine holster but when used as a IWB it keeps riding up too much. So, ended up with a IWB High Noon Bare Assets holster. Love it. http://www.highnoonholsters.com/Merchan ... ct_Code=BA" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

When I started carrying IWB I started wearing a wife beater undershirt tucked in to overcome the rubbing problem. Dont even think about the fact that I'm carrying anymore.

OWB would be fine in the winter when wearing a jacket or sweat shirt but I would be too self concious of the printing in the warmer months when wearing a t-shirt.
