A Ruger SR22 holster IWB tucks the pistol between your waistband and body, which keeps things nice low-profile and out of sight. Look for one with adjustable ride height and adjustable cant so you can tweak the fit just how you like it. Breathable materials and a strong clip help keep it comfortable all day and sweat guards help protect both you and your gun. Definitely look for those feature is your holster.

After trying lots of different type holsters, the small of the back holster is the best, for nearly any application where a fast draw (and reholster) is not imperative. It's more comfortable (even when seated or driving) than other alternatives, very covert, and provides a super accessible and confident draw. I now own three.

This is the third holster I have purchased from Craft Holsters and all have been good. Their craftsmanship is excellent and their customer service is great to work with. Had to stretch the thumb band to reach but their directions on this were easy to follow and worked perfectly. It’s hard to find left-handed holsters so to find one and have it be the perfect fit is amazing.
