Product Overview
The holster you're looking at is our Leather Chest Holster with thumb break release. It is made with the finest veg tanned leather, 100% hand crafted by our team in Montana to last generations. It is a true "Woods Carry" holster that is best used when you don't want a gun on your hip, but you want quick access to it. Most popular uses include hunting, backpacking, stream fishing, and other backcountry adventures. We developed our chest holsters with a thumb break retention which allows for your weapon to stay secured until you are ready to draw. The thumb break is a seemless one hand draw. Every holster is molded specifically to your guns make and model, making it a guranteed fit. Since the holster is made of leather it may need a little time to break in at first, once broken in it should be a smooth draw. Each chest holster comes assembled with a 1" nylon webbing harness. We chose the nylon for multiple reasons, the nylon webbing is lightweight/flexible, packable, and adjustable. The harness has three adjustment points to easily accomodate the gear you wear for the changing seasons. The nylon waist strap is easy for each person to cut to the desired length making it customizable to the carrier. All of our products come with a 100% money back gurantee!!!
Fits sizes X-small to XXXL in the same harness. The buckle strap comes long, so it will need to be cut/burned once you size it. Need larger than that? Just let us know in "order comments" at check out.

5 I chose an excellent chest holster
Posted by H Mark Macha on Dec 25th 2018
DESIGN - a well conceived holster. Rotational attach points enable adjustments without offset tugging such as with cut slots for straps. Removable attach points allow replacing strap "D" rings as needed or desired. Shallow curve "D" rings keep attach straps from curling. Attach-point straps/belts made of nylon webbing which do not drag clothing and readily fit body contour. MATERIALS - heavy thick leather holster body, stiff providing support for the firearm to the chest. Similar thick leather attach point loops for "D" rings. CRAFTSMANSHIP - Excellent attention to detail. Perfect stitch work. Excellent molding to pistol shape. A no-drag front/rear sight channel. Uniform leather color. OTHER - the nylon strap/belts are flexible with enough width to support weight and a bonus of easy deployment to the body and easy stowing when done. The straps wrap around the holster into a tidy package which can be efficiently stored and retrieved. THE PERSON - the owner listened and worked with me to meet my needs. His was not a cookie-cutter approach though for most cases that works just fine. VALUE - I checked alternate products. I now have Paradise Valley holsters for two different firearms and plan for a third. OVERALL - This is a field thing for me not for the safe shooting range visit. I have confidence this holster will work on the ground, with pack, camera, or rifle and for vehicle travel if needed.

5 Leather Chest Holster For Semi Autos
Posted by Gordon Skinner on Dec 12th 2018
Quality holster made to last a life time. This holster is one of the best made holsters I have ever purchased. My 1911 fits snug with no play to move around, even after I break it in for awhile it will still secure the gun very well. The harness is also well made and is very comfortable to wear with the shoulder pad added. If your looking for a high quality, well made, easy on and off, and comfortable chest holster you can’t get much better in my opinion.

Great quality product with real workmanship. Beautiful finished product. I suggest ordering the shoulder pad as well. I did not, but after wearing it a few days at deer camp I went back and added it. The shoulder pad makes the holster much more comfortable to wear for extended periods of time. Both are fine products and I will be ordering a second set soon for my Sig. Thank you Gordon.

Posted by Joe Horne on Sep 25th 2018
I have trouble drawing the pistol with my bino's on. I am moving the anchor point to the lower tab to create a more horizontal drawing angle. This position also allows for a more comfortable angle on my wrist instead of pulling in such an upward move.

Bought this for my SW 9mm Shield. The craftsmanship was excellent! The fit and comfort while wearing it was really better than I thought it would be. I would recommend this to anyone who hunts with a backpack, or fly fishes using a vest.
