The best Pancake Holster for concealed carry

How do you make a better Pancake Holster? We looked at many Pancake Holsters and looked how we could improve this well known design. All of our products are handmade with unrivaled attention to detail so how would we go about making further improvements?

While most Pancake Holsters including ours, have belt loops we have now started offering them with Speed Clips as an option. These allow you to mount & dismount your firearm holster in a quick but secure way, every time. Not only that but the 1/2″ hole spacing on our holsters gives you many adjustment positions to ensure the correct cant position.

Possibly the most important feature of our Pancake Holster is that we mold the Kydex 50/50 left and right side. The means that your firearm hugs your body better.

🥞 Why a Pancake Holster?

  • Design: Two pieces of material (often leather or Kydex) stitched together, forming a flat “pancake” shape that hugs the body tightly.
  • Concealment: Excellent — distributes the firearm’s profile across a wider surface area.
  • Comfort: More stable and often more comfortable for all-day wear.
  • Retention: Better retention and often includes adjustable tension.
  • Drawback: Slightly bulkier, though still very concealment-friendly under a shirt or jacket.

🟢 Best for: Everyday carry (EDC), mid- to full-size pistols, balanced comfort + concealment.
