I've only ever owned cheap holsters and they've always been uncomfortable. I finally pulled the trigger and bought this little guy. It's worth every single cent. I can't recommend this holster enough and I can't imagine that any holster works better in terms of concealment, retention, and sex appeal. Buy one, dummy.

Fantastic holster. I would recommend spending the little extra for the elite or AGIS. Overall I’m very happy with mine for the hellcat. I plan to order 2 or 3 more for my others.

I have waited to write my review because I wanted to be as honest about the product as possible. I can honestly say after a month of using it daily, it’s the most comfortable and access friendly means of concealed carry I have ever used and I’ve tried them all. It will take some getting used to, but I can wear my EDC all day with zero issues. Driving, standing, sitting, bending this rig handles it all and performs well. I have two kids under two and I’m constantly on the move with them and m...

The holster is incredibly comfortable. Surprisingly so, given its size. There is always that comfortable click when holstering. Allows you to purchase the handle securely every time and with the index finger in the precise place needed. No exceptions. Been wearing it all day every day in the tropics. 90+ temp high humidity and it’s comfortable for all day wear. Even driving for long periods of time are not a problem. I can honestly say I sometimes forget I have it with me. Prints a ...

Thanks Tier1 for making this upgrade possible. I’ve tried many holsters, and very few can match a true fit of a gun+light / gun only option. I’ve already put in hours of wearing it with no concerns or issues yet; long times of sitting/standing/walking. I hope other people take the chance to experience the quality and comfort of these holsters. (Tested: axis elite, glock48 with and without light)

By far the best holsters I’ve ever used. Borrowed a buddy of mines when I first started shooting/carrying. I have 2 axis elites and one msp. I train with all 3. The plan was for the msp to be the last holster I buy but…… we shall see. I bought all 3 of my holsters this year. I have a Glock 17 and Glock 45.

This is my second Tier 1 holster. I got a new concealed carry firearm, and I heard amazing things about the APX holster, and it very much lived up to the hype. I am 5'10" 180 lbs and can comfortably conceal my Glock 19x MOS with the 19 round mag without printing. Fairly convinced at this point there is witchcraft involved over there at Tier 1. My only complaint is that I am not sure why you cannot order this holster with DCC clips. I installed them from a different holster I had lying around, an...

Better fit and customization over the Axis Elite. It forms to the body well and I notice it less that the Axis Elite. Perfect fit for the 43x with Surefire XSC-A. Highly recommended.

undefined review of T1-M image 1 out of 1

Steve

By far the most concealable holster I have ever tried (and like most people I tried quite a few) I originally purchased the T1-M with the ulticlip for my Sig p365 and was instantly hooked. Ended up purchasing one for each of my other handguns. The clip sitting next to the slide portion and not on top of it, drastically reduces the width (and any printing) of the holster compared to other holsters I've tried. Also the ability to change the height of the clip and the wing/claw (independently of ea...

Been using this for over a year and I love it. The wedge and the wing make the grip and extra mag disappear. Very comfortable when paired with a Kore belt that I can discreetly loosen when I sit down.

Skip B.

This is my first experience with a Kore belt, let alone anything from Tier 1 and I have tp say I'm extremely pleased. This belt has been one of the better belts I use everyday if not the best, it has zero flex holding my edc firearm with sidecar (staccato-p with 20 round spare) . I've got a holster ordered from Tier1 the Agis Elite, im excited to try it out for a few days and compare it to my current holster by LAS Concealment. The kore belt is awesome though, I've read reviews about the T1c bu...

T1C x KORE - EDC Belt

Matt

I wish I would have bought this holster two years ago! I carry a S&W M&P 2.0 compact and it disappears. The Axis Elite holster is the most comfortable holster I’ve used yet.. ( and I’ve gone through a handful) I was hesitant to buy initially because of the price, but I can now say it’s worth every penny. I had been struggling to find a good fit at the appendix position, but Tier 1 knocked it out of the park. I would recommend for anyone who carries appendix!

Shadow Systems MR918. Great fit! The APX is an added treat. I didn’t have to move it much from the way it came. It is a great design by far. So many options to adjust. Very comfortable indeed. Great work !!!

Worth every dollar. Worth the lead time. T1C again and again knocks it out of the park! If it's a IWB holster, I wont go anywhere else. Switching from a X300U to a TLR-7A Flex makes a world of difference. Now partner that with a T1c Holster, and WOW. Gun conceals extremely well, and the comfort is off the charts. Thank you!

XIPHOS ELITE

Paul S.

This is Xiphos Elite #4. For my S&W M&P 2.0 4.25. I bought this holster without a a light. Few adjustments on clip height to my previous Xiphos Elites. This one in FDE color. I love the feel and no print this holster delivers. The best holster in the market. Thank you Tier 1. You have a customer for life.

This holster is amazing! I was kinda worried they wouldn't be able to do this holster for the primary machine CZ compensator but they came through! This is my 4th holster from this company I recommend them 100%

All I have to say is WHAT AN AMAZING HOLSTER. I was hoping it would be everything I thought it would be after reading so many reviews on Tier 1 and this holster in general. I could not be happier with this design and even the extras that Tier 1 did to the holster to make it truly fit like a glove for my xmacro and the additions I have on it. If you are second guessing yourself due to the amount of money you will spend, stop second guessing and hit that place order button. I will be purchasing mo...

I’m 5’ 10” 145lbs so concealing a full sized handgun has always been a struggle. But I purchased the axis elite now I carry a Glock 19x with a comp and it conceals amazingly. It’s also the most comfortable holster I own if you are needing a holster these are the best hands down!

Justin D.

I was always cautious with purchasing a holster that was $100+, I’ve purchased holsters in the past and sent them back for a refund because of being uncomfortable. I went ahead and pulled the trigger with an Axis Elite. There’s so many modifications that come with this holster it’s incredible! With any holster, you have to get used to it, but I believe I’m a T1C customer for life!

Sadly like many others I've wasted so much cash on trash over the years. It's also sad that I found my first tier 1 maybe 5 years ago and I still attempt to find its equal to no avail. I just ordered my 3rd tier 1 and the only regret I have are the other various 20 holsters I've tried. The only time I'm not carrying is when I'm sleeping so my holsters get hella wear and I've never owned a more comfortable setup than any of my t1's. Actually I recently ordered an update kit and brought my very ...

Incredible product, but even better customer service. Changes the carrying game. Highly recommend upgrading to the DCC belt clips and absolutely no question about it, you need the EDC-S belt. Worth every penny and has completely eliminated back pain from carrying.

Best holsters! I will never go back from this rig. It’s super comfortable to wear all day when using the right belt and It stays put! Also does a good job of hugging your body so you don’t print !

Finally pulled the “trigger” and bought this beautiful work of art, for being a guy that has a 5 star dad bod.. it’s perfect so comfortable I haven’t been able to sit while carrying with this slim I’ve been able to drive for hours and it’s so comfortable!

I just got my dream gun, the SIG P226 XFIVE Legion. Got this holster for it, was worried it wouldn't fit with the gas pedal....but fits like a glove! Tier 1 did there greatness yet again...this is my third holster from them, always very impressed 💯 of a perfect holster company!!! Pull the "trigger" if you are on the fence, you will be pleased!

I wanted a holster that held my edc and a spare mag, stumbled onto T1C and read reviews. Happy that I now have the hands down most comfortable holster I've ever worn. A little pricey, sure. Worth it, definitely!

Robert E.

If you’re on the fence just do it. I can conceal a Glock 45 mos with an sro, and a radian afterburner/ramjet comp setup and a stream light TLR1-HL better then I can conceal my Glock 43x in the dinosaur holster. Been running this setup everyday for the past few months and am loving it. For reference, I’m 5’9 and weigh 165-170ish and have a small gut but that isn’t an issue. Will continue to run Tier 1 holsters moving forward.

Got the wrong color shock cord but all in all the holster is on point. Got a P226 with a RDO and a TLR-1hL and out the box it had good retention. Can honestly say i CANT feel the full weight of the gun since the holster and nexbelt make a good combo. Been using it since yesterday when i got it. road my Harley and the holster never bugged me. Wish i would of jumped on to your holsters sooner gonna order a few more soon as gifts.

This is the 5th holster I have ordered for T1C. I absolutely love the APX. I ordered it for my Sig P365 XMacro Comp with a Streamlight TLR-7 X Sub. It’s my favorite by far and will be ordering one for my FN 509C Tactical.

This is my 3rd Tier 1 holster. I have drawers full of other holsters and these are by far the best I have ever carried! So comfortable and concealable! Little bit pricey but you definitely get what you pay for and these holsters are top quality! Sometimes they take a little time to receive it after ordering but well worth the wait!

I’ve always wanted a T1C holster but was skeptical because of the cost and now I’m mad I didn’t hop on this train sooner. Amazing holsters that are super comfortable. I’m a large guy and can easily carry my M&P Carry Comp Metal and it doesn’t show at all. I love the adjustability you get with the mag carrier on this model and only want to use this holster moving forward for my CCW needs. Highly recommend! If you’re on the fence, I assure you if you’ve been carrying appendix for a while you won’t...

Wow… was skeptical of this holster from total price but after receiving and wearing every day for 2 weeks now this holster is joke. Have tried the Safariland incogx, four brothers stand alone, and old Gen trex sidecar and this one takes the cake by far checking every box. Comfort is by far the best and sometimes it feels like I don’t even have it. The elastic shock cord keeping the sidecar attached makes it mold under the belt for best possible fit. The wing built into side car helps as well. I ...

Best concealed carry holster I have ever purchased! It literally fits every handgun I own that I can mount a Streamlight TLR-1 HL on like a glove. Kimber 1911, Sig 1911, FN 509 Tactical, Glock 17, Glock 19, Springfield Echelon, Sig P226, Staccato P, CZ Shadow 2 to name a few I tried it out with. Awesome work guys!

This was a Birthday gift from my wife!! Excellent fit and comfort, plus just the versatility. I switch between my Glock 17 cut to a 19 grip and a 2011 4.25" This is my 5th holster from Tier 1 and this is my favorite thus far!!

Quality-made kydex holster.. can’t be happier with how comfortable and versatile it is. The wedge pack was essential to get a good fit as I had to try out a few sizes for a little while with different pants and outfits. Overall I ended up going with the double wide size small to get better padded coverage against my body and to give the holster a little muzzle tilt away from my pishadeel. Great job fellas!

Contacted tier 1 support about an axis elite I had. I Had questions about me trying to replace and purchase just the pistol portion of an axis elite holster due to a crack. Support came through like no other and sent me an entire new holster. Brady was amazing. These guys aren’t lying when they say you’re not just getting a holster. The support team is next level.

Got this holster today and threw it on right away. Wore it for about 6-7 hours. Very comfortable to wear for long periods of time. I’m probably going to loctite all the screws, but so far I’m very happy. I’ve owned a few other top-rated holsters and T1C is right up there for a reason. I’m very impressed and would have no problem ordering another one of these or recommending it. I decided to switch back to side carry instead of appendix for work days, simply for comfort. The Echo is something tha...

Great holster. Well worth every penny. Retention is good enough for my day to day activities where I can sit stand squat bend lean all comfortably and without printing. Will be upgrading to the metal clips to see how those fare.

Reginald S.

Definitely helps with comfort, I use to hate sitting down for long periods while driving or just as of late all day events walking around, after seeing about it on instagram with other users on multiple styles of holsters it is a great deal of relief for where the tip of my Glock17 sits. I'm not super fit, so it helps with ultimate comfort with my semi dad bod posture while moving around.

The Axis Elite IWB holster is awesome! It is made really well. I love the sound when re-holstering...retention is superb! For me, it's more comfortable if I wear an undershirt first. I say that because I carry a G17 with a Streamlight TLR-1 (I can hear the comments now). With two full mags its quite heavy, but hey, it alright with me! The belt clips and claw does its job really well, but there is still some printing...slightly. But I think its because of my pandemic belly... I didn't need to adj...
