Looking to upgrade my current AIWB setup and have a couple of specific things I am looking for:
- Fuzz finish. I have an INCOG for my VP9mm and love the fuzz.
- Minimalist holster design. Something like the Statureman AIWB. If Statureman had fuzz, I'd probably just order one of those.

Any advice is greatly appreciated.

I have a Raven Vanguard 2 for my G19. Not sure it it will fit the trigger guard on the 26 but I love it. No fuzziness but it is minimal. It allows the gun to move with you when you move and sit.

It's the only AIWB holster I've found that doesn't make you feel like you have a yard rake stuffed down your pants.

I have a VG2 and like it for mountain biking and quick trips to the store etc. It moves a little bit too much for me during regular wear though.  It is really great for biking though between padded bike shorts and lightweight fox mountain bike cargo shorts.

Interesting,

Do you wear it AIWB or elsewhere when on the bike? I was trying to figure that out for myself for this fall. I was thinking a belly band sort of setup.

I wear it AIWB, right about 12:30. I tried it on a whim and was really suprised how well it works with a G26. The gun does get sweat on it though. None of my riding buddies had a clue.

I have a JM Custom Kydex that I picked up at the beginning of spring.  It's extremely comfortable, but I feel like it looks like I have a tumor growing off my stomach (probably not as noticeable to other ppl).  I keep going back to VG2.  I do think I will switch over to the JM when it gets a little cooler and I can wear more layers.

No fuzz but..... I like the Fist Holsters 1-K

Quick on/off positive locking clip, works with or without a belt.

I own several and carry them concealed routinely.

NICK Holsters





I can make exactly what you are looking for.


Here is an example of my microsuede wrap.


It is available in many color combos, and with a clip (like Statureman's) or a more secure snap loop.

JM Custom will make their AIWB with a soft backing if you ask, or you could glue on some neoprene yourself.

not what you asked for, but Crossbreed makes a very comfortable appendix holster

Not really what you asked, but from my personal experience I would get whatever holster you choose in the 19 size. Reason being that the extra length of the holster will let it lay more naturally against you, and have more weight under the beltline. With shorter holsters like the 26, especially carried in the AIWB position, the weight of the gun above the beltline is heavier than whats below the line, and it actually works AGAINST you to conceal the weapon under light clothing.  Just my .02, good luck!

I carry mine in an INCOG and am very happy with it.

I've been using a CCC Shaggy sized for the G19. It works very well for me. I occasionally use it for my G19 too, but the 26 does hide better.
I was torn between the Shaggy or a JM Custom Kydex and am sure it would have worked just fine too. The wait time won it over.
As an aside, my JM OWB rig is outstanding.

Cheers!
