Southern Trapper OWB/IWB Alligator Trim Holster

Add a touch of the exotic to your concealed-carry kit with the OWB/IWB Alligator Trim Holster by Southern Trapper, a combination inside/outside-the-waistband holster made principally from black cow hide, but with a reinforcing trim piece of wild-caught alligator hide that keeps the holster’s mouth from collapsing once your gun has been drawn.

An OWB design with installable IWB clips, a 15-degree forward cant and a prominent sweat guard, each of the holsters is hand-tanned, -sanded, -wet-molded, -sewn and -boned at the company’s South Carolina location—which allows it to be formed specifically to accommodate the user’s specific red-dot, weapon light and/or muzzle accessory models.

The alligator trim piece is available in eight colors. The suggested retail price is $285.
