Falco Carryart Holster Series F

At first glance, it looks like an April Fools’ joke, but rest assured, these are very real. Falco Holsters has officially launched its new CarryArt series, introducing two of its most unconventional designs to date: the CX14 Pineapple and CX15 Strawberry leather OWB holsters.

Falco describes its new CarryArt holster category as "a place where traditional leatherwork evolves into a form of personal expression." Each holster is constructed using full-grain Italian leather, custom-fit to the firearm, and designed to deliver the same reliability, retention, and smooth draw offered by the company's more traditional products. CarryArt holsters transform leather into a canvas, creating functional pieces that stand out from the sea of conventional black designs.

CX14 Pineapple & CX15 Strawberry Holsters
The two new holsters in the CarryArt series are patterned after a similar set of holsters that were featured at the 2026 SHOT Show as concept pieces designed to show off the capabilities of Falco's leatherworkers. The CX14 Pineapple features a bold, pineapple textured design, while the CX15 Strawberry stands out with cutouts shaped like strawberry seeds in its outer leather layer. Both maintain a compact OWB profile.

Each holster is constructed from 1/8-inch full-grain Italian leather and is available to fit more than 3,600 specific firearm designs. Each holster attaches to the belt through a leather belt tunnel, and the open-top design ensures a fast, natural draw. The bottom of the holster is open to accommodate longer threaded barrels.

“We are thankful for overwhelmingly positive feedback at the SHOT Show," Falco Holsters CEO Robert Kováč. "These two holsters nicely complement the hand-tooled holster designs we have been offering for years, while opening the door to new creative possibilities."
