Colección: Leather Holsters & Leather Belts – Durable Handmade Quality for Carry

Leather Holsters & Leather Belts – Durable Handmade Quality

Holsters and belts belong together. A good leather holster carries the weight and protects the finish. A strong leather belt keeps that holster exactly where your hand expects it. That pairing is the difference between gear that only looks the part and gear that works day after day at the ranch, the range, or in town. This collection brings both worlds together: leather holsters for revolvers and pistols, and durable leather belts built to hold steady.

Whether you carry a classic wheelgun or a modern striker-fired pistol, you’ll find fits for 1911, Glock, Taurus, Ruger, Colt, and Smith & Wesson. If you think in calibers, we speak that language too: .22 HRR, .38 Special, .44, .45 Colt, and .357 Mag. If you think in carry styles, you’ll see OWB, crossdraw, and suede-lined comfort. If your taste leans Western, our tooled work shows it. If you want clean and field-ready, we make that too. Pair any holster here with a handmade belt that won’t sag, twist, or let you down.

Craftsmanship That Holds Its Shape

We build with full-grain leather because it breaks in, not down. Edges are burnished smooth so they don’t fray. Stitching is tight and consistent, with either contrast double-stitch or tone-on-tone to match the piece. Retention is tuned by design, not by gimmicks. On holsters, you’ll see reinforced mouths for easy reholstering, molded contours for secure lock-up, and classic snap straps where they make sense. On belts, we focus on thickness, temper, and hardware. Solid buckles. Clean holes. Even spacing. The details that seem simple until you wear a belt all day and realize what matters.

You’ll spot floral tooling, basket stamp work, and clean lines that nod to working rigs without going costume. If comfort is the goal, our suede holsters hug close and ride quiet. If durability is the priority, our OWB leather holsters are stitched to take years of use. Every piece here is built to work, then built to look good doing it.

Holsters by Firearm Family

Finding the right fit starts with what you carry. Use these quick guides to jump into the right lineup. Each section links to deeper categories where you can dial in finish, hand, and ride.

1911 Leather Holsters

The 1911 deserves leather. Slim slide, straight lines, classic balance. It rides beautifully in a molded rig that protects the trigger guard and keeps the thumb safety clear. Whether you run Government, Commander, Officer, or a 1911 with a rail, start here: 1911 leather holsters. Expect secure retention, clean draws, and options that match Western-inspired tooling or simple field styles.

Glock Leather Holster

Simple, reliable, everywhere. A well-formed leather OWB hugs the frame and avoids bulk. If you’ve bounced between synthetics and want the comfort of leather without losing function, look here: Glock holster. We build for popular models and keep the ride height practical. Strong-side carry is the default. Crossdraw is available where it fits the platform and the job.

Revolver Holsters for Ruger, Colt, S&W, and Taurus

Revolvers live in leather. Our patterns cover the usual suspects: Ruger (GP100, Security Six, Blackhawk, Vaquero), Colt (Python, King Cobra, Single Action Army), Smith & Wesson K/L/N frames, and Taurus mainlines. If you run a working .38 Special or a heavy .44, you’ll find molded fits that keep cylinders clear and ejector rods protected. For ranch and trail, crossdraw shines. For range and duty-style carry, OWB stays clean and quick. If you prefer a softer feel, suede rides easy and quiet.

.357 Mag, .22 HRR, .38 Special, .44, .45 Colt

We size by model, but we also speak caliber. Looking for a leather holster for .357 Mag? We’ve built them for everything from compact 3-inch carry guns to long-barreled field revolvers. Running a Heritage Rough Rider (.22 HRR)? Suede and molded leather both fit the bill. For .38 Special, .44, and .45 Colt, we keep the mouth reinforced, the stitch line clean, and the draw natural. If you aren’t sure which specific fit you need, tell us the model, barrel length, and preferred carry, and we’ll point you right.

Taurus Judge and Raging Hunter

Big frames need real support. A Taurus Judge demands a holster and belt combo that controls weight and muzzle flip. Our rigs balance ride height with coverage so you’re not fighting the draw. The Raging Hunter brings its own mass; paired with a proper belt, it settles in and carries with less sway. If you’ve dealt with rigs that sag or walk, match your holster here with a belt from leather belts and feel the difference on day one.

Desert Eagle

The Desert Eagle is a different animal. Large. Heavy. It needs leather that doesn’t fold. Our approach is structure first, comfort second, style third. If the frame isn’t supported, nothing else matters. Expect a reinforced mouth, deep molding, and a ride that favors stability. Pair with a true gun-rated belt and you’ll get predictable draws without the belt rolling over.

Carry Style: Pick the Draw That Fits Your Day

OWB Leather Holster

Outside-the-waistband carry stays popular for a reason. It’s comfortable, fast, and easy to live with. Our OWB leather holsters hold tight to the body, keep the muzzle clear, and deliver a consistent grip. If you’re carrying a Glock, a 1911, or a mid-size revolver, OWB is a strong baseline. It’s also the style we recommend for long days on your feet or hours behind the wheel. Explore options across platforms in leather holsters.

Crossdraw Holster

Crossdraw earns its keep on horseback, on the ranch, and in the truck. The grip is accessible with the off-side draw, seated or standing, and the muzzle stays off your ribs. We build crossdraw holsters with the angle and belt slot placement that actually works in the real world, on the opposite side of your dominant hand for a clean across-the-body draw. See the dedicated styles here: crossdraw holsters.

Suede Leather Holster

Suede rides soft and quiet. It conforms as you wear it and takes hard edges out of carry. If you want a holster that moves with you while keeping retention honest, suede is a smart pick, especially for lighter .22 HRR revolvers and compact .38 Special carry. Find the lineup here: suede leather holster.

Belts: The Foundation of the Whole Rig

A holster is only as good as the belt it rides on. If you’ve felt sag, creep, or a grip that shifts between the first draw and the tenth, the belt is usually the problem. Ours are cut from quality hides with the thickness and temper to carry weight without folding. Hardware is solid. Holes are consistent. The fit is honest.

Leather Belts for Jeans

The everyday workhorse. A 1.5-inch width slips cleanly through jean loops, holds a holster steady, and still looks right at dinner. Pair your OWB leather holster with a belt that won’t roll. Browse the range: leather belts.

Western Belts

Tooling, contrast stitching, and a bit of attitude. Western belts aren’t just decoration. They’re built thicker and stiffer than dress belts, which makes them perfect partners for revolver carry and crossdraw rigs. If you run a tooled holster, matching a tooled belt ties the whole setup together.

Handmade Leather Belts

Handmade means clean cuts, true sizing, and edges that won’t fuzz out after a month. If you’re building a wardrobe that leans rugged, a handmade belt becomes the piece you reach for most. It supports a holster on the range and looks right in the shop or office. See the full lineup: leather belts.

Gun Belts

Call it a gun belt, a work belt, or just the right tool. The point is structure. We build belts with enough backbone to carry a Glock OWB all day, anchor a .357 Mag crossdraw on the ranch, or keep a big-bore revolver from rocking. If you’ve been fighting your rig, start here and fix the foundation.

Holster + Belt Pairings That Just Work

  • Crossdraw + Western belt: For horseback, long drives, and ranch work. Ideal for .45 Colt single-actions, .38 Special K-frames, and .22 HRR trail guns.
  • OWB + 1.5" handmade belt: Daily carry for Glock and 1911. Clean draw and steady grip.
  • Suede + softer temper belt: Lightweight combo for small-frame revolvers, easy all-day wear.
  • Heavy revolver + gun-rated belt: Raging Hunter, .44 Mag, or Desert Eagle. Pair with a thicker belt to control sway and keep the muzzle where it belongs.

Cartridge Belts: Tradition Meets Function

For revolver shooters and Western rigs, nothing completes the setup like a strong cartridge belt. Built to carry spare rounds while supporting your holster, these belts are both practical and true to cowboy tradition. Pairing a cartridge belt with a crossdraw or OWB holster keeps ammunition close at hand, whether you’re on the ranch, at the range, or riding out on the trail.

Buying Guide: Choose Once, Carry for Years

Selecting a Holster

  • Firearm fit: Model and barrel length matter. For revolvers, frame and cylinder size matter too. For 1911, note Government, Commander, Officer, and rail vs. no rail.
  • Carry style: OWB for most days. Crossdraw for seated work, horseback, or long drives. Suede when comfort is king.
  • Retention and access: Reinforced mouths and molded lines give a consistent draw. Thumb break snaps are available where they make sense.
  • Finish: Tooled, basket, floral, or clean. Match your belt and how you use the rig.

Selecting a Belt

  • Width: 1.5" is the do-everything size for jeans and most pants. Western rigs can go wider for style and support.
  • Sizing: Order one size up from your pant size. If your waist is 34, choose a 36 belt. If you carry daily or change layers seasonally, allow an extra hole either way.
  • Structure: If you carry heavier guns like a .44, Raging Hunter, Desert Eagle, or a full-size 1911, choose a stiffer belt. It prevents roll-over and keeps your draw consistent.
  • Style: Match the holster. A tooled 1911 leather holster looks right with a Western belt. A clean OWB for a Glock pairs well with a plain handmade belt.

More Than Just Holsters and Belts

Every shooter talks about finding the right holster, but the truth is you’re really building a complete rig. Some call it a sidearm holster, others a cowboy rig, and for many it’s the full gunfighter belt setup that matters. No matter the name, the goal is the same: secure carry, fast draw, and gear that lasts. Our patterns include tooled details and the kind of hand-tooled straps that separate factory-made gear from the real thing. If you’re looking for a smooth concealed OWB carry solution, you’ll find it here too, built with the same craftsmanship we put into our Western rigs.

FAQ: Straight Answers

Do I need a special gun belt, or will any leather belt work?

A proper gun belt matters. Standard casual belts are cut thinner and softer. They look fine but fold under weight. Our leather belts are built with the stiffness to hold a holster steady, which means faster, safer draws and less fatigue. If you carry a heavier rig like .357 Mag, .44, a Raging Hunter, or a Desert Eagle, choose one of our stiffer options.

OWB vs. crossdraw. How do I pick?

Pick by how you live. OWB is straightforward, fast, and easy to conceal under light layers. Crossdraw shines when you’re seated, riding, or working in tight spaces. For horseback and trucking, crossdraw is hard to beat. We place crossdraw holsters on the opposite side of your dominant hand for a clean across-the-body draw you can trust. Explore crossdraw holsters.

Which holsters do you recommend for 1911, Glock, and common revolvers?

Start with platform-specific lines. For single-stack classics, see 1911 leather holsters. For modern polymer, head to Glock holster. Revolver carriers should pick based on frame size. Ruger GP100 and S&W K/L frames ride well in OWB or crossdraw, depending on your day. If you’re running .22 HRR, .38 Special, .44, or .45 Colt, choose the fit for that model and barrel length.

Is suede a good idea for daily carry?

If comfort is your top priority and you’re carrying lighter platforms (compact .38, .22 HRR, small-frame revolvers), suede is excellent. It moves with you, rides quiet, and still holds shape when built right. For heavier rigs or hard field use, a structured OWB in molded leather is the safer bet. Browse suede holsters and leather holsters.

How do I size a leather belt for holster carry?

Go one size up from your pant size. If your waist is 34, choose a 36 belt. If you carry daily or change layers seasonally, consider an extra hole either way. For most people and most holsters, 1.5 inches is the sweet spot for jeans.

Will a Western tooled belt work with a modern Glock or 1911?

Yes. Function first, style second. A Western belt with proper stiffness supports modern pistols just fine. If you like tooling, match it to a tooled holster for a clean rig, or contrast a plain OWB with a patterned belt. Either way, start with structure, then pick the look.

What leather care keeps holsters and belts looking right?

Less is more. Wipe off dust and grit. Use a mild cleaner when needed. Condition sparingly with a quality leather conditioner, not heavy oils. Keep out of direct heat. Let pieces dry naturally if they get wet. With normal care, leather develops the kind of patina that tells a story instead of wearing out.
