How to choose the best holster for your Ruger LCP

A good start would be by thinking about how, where and how often you plan to carry your Ruger LCP. This lightweight, compact pistol is naturally very well suited and purpose made for everyday carry, so comfort and concealability should top your list. Especially if you plan on conceal carrying. Choose a Ruger LCP holster that gives you solid retention, keeps printing low, and lets you draw easily when needed. Material plays a big role too, leather holsters feel classic and break in over time, while Kydex models hold their shape and provide a smooth draw. Whether you’re looking for a low-profile option for daily use or something for the range, the right LCP Ruger holster should feel like an extension of you.

The steel clip design is perfect for those who dislike removing their belt when attaching or detaching the holster. It also features a reinforced thumb break strap, adding extra durability and increasing the holster’s natural retention, making it a highly secure option.

Best Ruger LCP OWB Holster

Open Top Belt Holster – $89.  The Open Top Belt Holster is an excellent choice for those seeking easy access and a quick draw. Its pancake design provides a slim, low-profile fit, ensuring that your Ruger LCP remains concealed even in an OWB carry position. This holster is not only practical but also extremely comfortable for daily wear.

Best Ruger LCP Shoulder Holster

Shoulder Holster System – $215. For shoulder holster fans, the Shoulder Holster System is the best option for the Ruger LCP. This leather shoulder system allows you to carry your gun in a horizontal position, secured with a thumb break strap for added safety. The system includes a double ammo holder and tie-down straps that attach to your belt, offering excellent balance and security. As a bonus, the holster can also be used as a regular belt holster, giving you two carry options in one.

Carry Options for Ruger LCP holsters

Concealed Carry

The Ruger LCP is built for concealed carry. It’s small enough to disappear under a shirt but powerful enough to give you peace of mind. A good Ruger LCP concealed holster hugs your body and keeps your pistol secure without getting in the way. Whether you prefer IWB, pocket, or even ankle carry, the goal is always the same, keep it hidden, keep it comfortable.

IWB Holsters

Inside-the-waistband holsters are a go-to for many Ruger LCP owners. These holsters keep your pistol tucked in and out of sight. A well-made Ruger LCP IWB holster should offer a snug fit, solid clip, and sweat guard to keep things comfortable even on long days.

OWB Holsters

OWB holsters sit outside your waistband and offer quicker access, especially at the range or when open carrying. A properly fitted Ruger LCP OWB holster  stays close to your body, reducing printing while still giving you fast access when it counts.

Shoulder Holsters

Shoulder holsters work great for folks who spend a lot of time seated or driving. A Ruger LCP shoulder holster lets you carry under a jacket, distributes weight evenly, and keeps your firearm close and accessible.

Pocket Holsters

Pocket holsters are perfect for keeping things simple and low-profile. A Ruger LCP pocket holster covers the trigger, anchors itself in your pocket, and lets you draw cleanly without the holster coming out too. Look for grippy exteriors to keep everything in place.

Ankle Holsters

Need a backup gun or deep concealment option? A Ruger LCP ankle holster can ride unnoticed all day long. Choose one with soft padding and a secure strap, so it stays comfortable and doesn't shift around while you move.

Appendix Holsters

Appendix carry is fast and close to your centerline. A Ruger LCP appendix holster should be slim, ride at the right height, and let you adjust the angle for your ideal draw. It’s a favorite for quick access and low-profile carry.

Laser Holsters

If your LCP has a laser, make sure your holster fits it perfectly. A Ruger LCP laser holster is molded to fit the added bulk of the laser sight without losing retention or comfort. It keeps your setup secure and your draw smooth.

Purse Holsters

Carrying off-body? A Ruger LCP purse holster keeps your pistol secure and properly positioned inside your bag. Look for holsters with Velcro or anchor points that stop shifting and make sure your firearm stays ready.

Cross Draw Holsters

Cross draw setups are handy for seated carry or folks with mobility concerns. A Ruger LCP cross draw holster gives you quick access without reaching across your body awkwardly. It’s an efficient setup for many users.

Holsters for Women

Women’s carry needs often vary based on clothing and lifestyle. A Ruger LCP holster for women should offer flexible carry methods, discreet design, and all-day comfort. Whether worn on the body or carried in a bag, it should always feel secure and intuitive.

Paddle Holsters

Paddle holsters are great when you need to gear up or down fast. A Ruger LCP paddle holster slides on easily, stays secure, and removes without taking off your belt. Ideal for those on the move or switching between roles.

This holster just showed up the other day. Don’t have much time with it but from brand new the fit is perfect, no stretching to make it fit. Feels good on the back and hides so easily compared to a hip holster . This is one of 5 I have from this company and can’t complain about any of the holsters

My third of these -- best leather work, most secure, closest ride for concealability. I've tried many brands of holster, but these Slovakian dudes beat every other one hollow. This one replaces a less secure holster for my Ruger LCP.
