Your preferred carry position and lifestyle should guide whether you select an IWB, shoulder, chest, or other type of holster.

Best Chiappa Rhino OWB Holster

This holster is not only practical but also extremely comfortable for daily wear.
Best Chiappa Rhino Shoulder Holster
Shoulder Holster System – $215. For shoulder holster fans, the Shoulder Holster System is the best option for the Chiappa Rhino.

Carry Options for Chiappa Rhino holsters
Concealed Carry
A Chiappa Rhino concealed carry holster offers low-profile carry without compromising draw speed. Due to the revolver’s unique shape, concealment holsters must be designed specifically for its profile. Choose minimalist designs or holsters with deeper cant for optimal concealment under clothing.
IWB Holsters
A Chiappa Rhino IWB holster sits inside the waistband, offering maximum concealment for everyday carry. These holsters typically feature adjustable cant, retention screws, and comfort padding. They are ideal for users who prefer discreet carry without sacrificing draw efficiency.
OWB Holsters
Outside the waistband options provide comfort and faster access. A holster for Chiappa Rhino worn OWB can work well under jackets or for open carry scenarios. Look for OWB holsters with molded contours and dual belt loops to maintain position during movement.
Shoulder Holsters
A Chiappa Rhino shoulder holster is an excellent solution for those who sit for long periods or prefer jacket-based carry. These rigs distribute weight evenly across the shoulders and allow for horizontal or vertical orientation, making them both comfortable and accessible.
Material Options for Chiappa Rhino Holsters
Chiappa Rhino Leather Holsters
A Chiappa Rhino leather holster offers great comfort and durability. Made from premium leather, it molds to your gun and body over time for a snug fit. It provides natural retention, protection, and becomes more comfortable with use.
Chiappa Rhino Kydex Holsters
A Chiappa Rhino Kydex holster is lightweight, rigid, and custom-molded for secure retention. It requires no break-in, resists chemicals and weather, and offers adjustable retention with a crisp draw and reholstering “click.”

Summary
Carrying the Chiappa Rhino 20DS calls for a holster that respects its unique design while keeping it secure and comfortable throughout the day. Because the Rhino’s low-bore-axis frame and unconventional profile differ from traditional revolvers, the holster needs precise molding to hold the gun steady and provide a smooth, predictable draw. With the right fit, the 20DS carries surprisingly well—balanced, protected, and always ready to perform the moment you reach for it.
