Kydex Size


Good CCW holster for a 1911 Commander?

Im looking for a good holster for a Commander sized 1911. I not sure about iwb vs owb, j hook, Kydex vs leather…

It’s a very personal preference and the only real answer is you need to try some and see what works for you.
IWB can be uncomfortable if you don’t regularly wear an undershirt and you need to have your waistband bigger than you normally would to accommodate the extra inch or so it creates. OWB obviously needs a jacket to cover things from view. I wear a 46 jacket and 35 waist and wear an OWB leather belt slide with my Hi Power and an IWB with my small revolver and small auto, with either my jacket or my shirttail worn out. The OWB needs to have the belt taken off to remove it and the IWB just snaps off quickly, which is very convenient. I like a good leather and Bianchi is the one I usually buy.
