I need one. Anyone have suggestions? Not for me
My wife works, and wants badly to carry. She had a stashed pistol at work with owners permission, but wants to carry her not yet built g19 with an rmr. My challenge in finding something appropriate is she wears yoga pants 16 hours a day and that's just not negotiable. I have been looking at leather options like the crossbreed supertuck, and others that are all leather as well. Do any lady members here, Or members wives have any suggestions? Something made for comfort that won't drag down on pants with no belt? |

Is this a parody thread?
That's a rather large gun for skinny clothes. |

Phlster enigma. That would let her carry under the pants and it would be fully supported by the belt it’s on. I use mine with a 48 under dress clothes with a long sleeved button up shirt and khakis.
DOes she normally wear long shirts? If not hiding anything in yoga pants will probably be difficult. |

Gonna need pics to determine what IWB holster will best fit her body type.

My wife ended up buying a Hellcat that can fit into a sticky holster and most tactical yoga pants on the market.

Quoted: I have a belly band and print horribly with a G19 in anything less than a sweatshirt. I’m pretty thin though. View Quote Good info, thanks. She does wear fairly loose garments up top. She can get away with a full size 1911 owb halfway decently. The g19 should be a bit easier to hide. |

Quoted: This is looking pretty solid! I'll dig into this deeper View Quote I've been wearing the Enigma for a few months now. Works great for carry when you can't use a belt. Takes a big of adjustment and getting used to but PHlster has a bunch of videos for fitment. I've ran a bunch and biked with mine on. |

Sounds like a typical woman “set up”.
She either knows herself that she should be doing something OR she’s responding to your common sense. Could be anything from keeping a full tank of gas to having winter emergency gear in the vehicle to carrying on person. The “set up” is establishing impossible criteria for doing the thing that needs done. After attempts to meet the impossible criteria- the end result is “I can’t”, “it’s not my fault”. “I would if I could, but I HAVE to wear yoga pants” (or whatever makes it impossible to accomplish the mission) |

I'm simply asking what options are out there. I realize that she is my wife, and I favor her, but I would love to meet a other out there who is as put together as she is. Knows how to shoot. Hunts, kills, and processes her own game. Sharpens her own blades, reloads her own ammo, splits wood shoulder to shoulder with me. That list is endless really. I don't think the criteria is impossible at all. She is comfortable with what she wears, and I would like for it to stay that way while she is carrying. |

[img]http://www.ar15.com/images A workable suggestion is a belly band. A thinner/smaller pistol would help also. Belly bands are not ideal, but I’m skeptical there exists any ideal method for carrying a G19 in yoga pants. Anything that goes “inside” the pants will create a lump. Wearing yoga pants when not exercising is all about having skin tight pants. Lumps totally defeats the purpose. Something above the pants and covered by the top clothes is probably as good as you’ll get while still maintaining the yoga pant look. |

As others said the Enigma, and they have a tonnnn of resources, video and articles, including material done by women, to explain tweaking it to fit your individual body and wardrobe

It’s been said numerous times but the enigma is the way to go. I have one set up for a P365XL and another harness waiting for a G48 with a light. It’s the best setup I’ve seen in almost 20 of daily carry if you can’t use a traditional belt/IWB combo.

Tell her to get a fanny pack, belly band, or a war belt.
Yoga pants are not going to hold up or conceal in any way a Glock 19 w/ RMR. |

I believe it's either primary and or palmetto that had womens yoga pants with a built in belly band type pocket. They were on sale. My wife uses the same type with her lcp.

After trying different holsters/guns with my wife I'd have a hard time imagining her concealing a g19 in normal clothes.

The enigma works well, but a glock 19 in yoga pants is a tall order, unless she doesn't care to print. Not that there's anything wrong with that. |

I guess we'll just have to try a few options. Printing isn't too much of a concern, but she would like to avoid as much of it that's possible. |

View Quote Holy fucking shit. You sure that isn't some S&M setup? |
|
no disrespect but if you can CCW a G19 than you really shouldn't be wearing yoga pants.
