Alien Gear Holsters stormed the concealed-carry scene with winged, IWB holsters that incorporated synthetic material and innovative designs to provide outstanding comfort, concealment and retention. The company has since put that ingenuity to work, cracking the code for a new OWB, paddle-style holster. The result is the Cloak MOD, a paddle holster that incorporates the company’s earlier innovations—such as interchangeable shells and spring steel cores—to bolster effectiveness and versatility.
