I am really satisfied with the craftsmanship and materials in this holster. It’s one of others I have purchased from Craftholsters. I won’t shop anywhere else. I bought this holster for my wife for concealed carry and it was a good fit once we adjusted straps.

Not at all happy with this holster. Supposedly built & fitted for a SIG P229 but it took quite an effort to get my SIG into the holster after using the entire bottle of break in liquid. Putting my SIG into a plastic bag & then getting it holstered, letting it sit for about 3 days I can only pull the pistol out of this holster after much yanking, tugging & pulling. Feels almost as if somewhat glued in !! Very disappointed & unhappy with holster & the $100 plus I paid for it. Will never buy anything again from this company. I will contact them but don’t really expect any help!
