Carry Options for Canik Mete SFT holsters
Canik Mete SFT Leather Holsters
Leather holsters offer excellent comfort and durability, molding to your body and firearm over time for a snug, glove-like fit. Made from premium full‑grain or Italian leather, they provide natural retention and protection while softening with use—often becoming comfier than synthetic options.
Canik Mete SFT Kydex Holsters
Kydex holsters are ultra‑lightweight and rigid, offering precise, custom molding that securely retains your firearm—even under demanding conditions—without needing a break‑in period. Their material resists chemicals and weather, provides adjustable retention (often reaching Level II–III), and delivers a satisfying “click” on draw and reholstering.
Canik Mete SFT Nylon Holsters
Nylon holsters are lightweight and cost-effective, made from durable, breathable materials like ballistic or Cordura nylon, making them ideal for concealed carry without adding bulk. Semi-universal designs molded around your firearm—and often compatible with similar-size guns—offer decent retention through body and belt pressure, especially for IWB use.

Will a Canik Mete SFT fit in a TP9SF holster?
The Canik Mete SFT will often fit into a TP9SF holster, because both pistols share a similar overall profile and dimensions. However, the Mete SFT has updated ergonomics, slightly different slide geometry, and an extended beavertail, which can affect the precision of the fit—especially in tightly molded holsters.
For everyday carry, a holster molded specifically to your exact pistol model is the safer choice. Since we produce every holster in special, model-specific dimensions, it’s always possible to choose the right holster designed precisely for your Mete SFT.
Summary
Choosing the best holster for Canik Mete SFT starts with understanding how the pistol’s refined shape and controls affect daily carry. Proper Canik Mete SFT holster compatibility ensures the fit is precise, retention stays consistent, and the draw feels natural whether you’re training or carrying day to day. With the right holster, the Mete SFT rides securely, stays protected, and performs with the confidence the design is known for.

I think that I will like my new holster, if I ever get to use it. It arrived with a thumb break that was an inch too short to get it snapped. I'm still trying to stretch it, using denatured alcohol, as the included instructions call for. I don't understand why it was made that way. Custom made holsters should fit perfectly!
