thigh holster

[pleiades]

Since she's not on this forum, it's safe for me to post For my sisters birthday, I'm going to get her what she's been searching high and low for - a thigh holster (at least it will be out of her purse!). I'm not a little sun dress kind of girl, so I'm clueless.

What I've found so far are these two options:
The Well Armed Woman Comfort Fit Thigh Holster - The Well Armed Woman

LCP 380cal — DeSantis Holster

She carries a Ruger LCP .380
Recommendations sun dress wearing well armed women?

Hi!

I know I'm new here, but this is something that I have looked into, being a dress and skirt girl some of the time myself.

I'm still looking for the best option for conceal carry myself so this won't be the most on-topic reply ever, but here's a video that really helped me form some of my opinions from a website that (it sounds like) might be helpful to your sister.

I'm sorry that I can't give you brands advice, but hopefully this can help her a little.

I can't wait to see what kind of advice you get from the more experienced voices.

I had a thigh holster made to fit either a compact or commander 1911. I love it for those times when other carry methods just don't work well.
My thoughts.. the well armed site doesn't look bad for the price, though I didn't look close enough to tell what the back of the holster was...padded? Nylon? You might look at that and take it into consideration before you buy. It did show one with a garter option. I think this would definitely be a needed accessory, should you go that route. It makes the holster more secure, or at least *feel* more secure. I wouldn't wear mine without it.
Nothing more distracting than worrying that your pistol is going to end up dropping to your ankle.

If you want, I can also get you the contact information for the gentleman who made mine. Just have to search a bit to find it. Good luck.

Here's a video of the holster I have. As I said, they made one for my 1911s and I love it. The contact information for the gentleman who made it is as the end of the video.
