Crossbreed vs. Kholster

[XDinmyXJ]

I am trying to decide on a holster for my XD9. Both are IWB and I know they are essentially the same thing but what do you guys say about them. Is there a thread or something that directly compares them instead of a pissing match? I like them both but what would make me spend 25 bucks more on a holster? They both have a lifetime warranty and look well built!

im not gonna try to steer you either way, in fact i dont own a crossbreed. i do own a kholster and have had 0 problems. Jimmie put them on sale shortly after i bought mine he refunded the difference. Any questions i've had i sent him an email and almost always got a quick response. They are an ugly holster but so comfortable you will forget you have it on. with that being said i just received my new comp-tac mtac today and can't wait to have a chance to give it a try....can't carry at work so i have to wait till this weekend. all just my .02 worth

I do not have either, but I would second the comp-tac mtac. Had it for almost a year, zero problems. Use it for both an XD 45 Service and XD 9 SC. They have interchangeable "bodies."

I've not used the Crossbreed. Here are my thoughts on the Kholster, short version being I'm a fan:

I stand by the Crossbreed. It is an extremely comfortable holster. You won't regret it but, I haven't used the other holster mentioned.

I use a crossbreed. I've had no problems with it and I can use it for both my 45 service and 9sc. If you happen to go this route I recommend you order it for the service. The subcompact will still work but this way you'll have the larger piece of leather to handle the longer barrel of the service.

I'm going to have to third this, I know it wasn't on your list but it is a fantastic holster. I've had mine for a couple of years now and have used it both for a 1911 and a glock 26.

 

[Glock Lover]

neither, I like my holsters to be comfortable not to cover my whole body.

This is the post of someone who doesn't own a Crossbreed(or Kholster either, maybe)

I don't have a crossbreed, but I have heard and seen where people have had problems with the clips when running them hard. have not seen anyone use a kholster yet.

I have 2 Kholsters one for XD and then bought another for G19. I carry the G19 in the kholster every day all day, yes I carry at work. I climb, drive, crawl and even stand around some and never have had an issue with it. My first came with plastic clips but the second has metal clips and I believe I like them better. I believe they are a great holster for the money.

I'll vote Minotaur MTAC. The thing that turns me off of the Kholster & SuperTuck is the fact that there isn't a backing on either one. I really don't know whether the thread-inserts would be uncomfortable...but I didn't want to waste money trying to find out either.

SuperTuck

MTAC

I can't feel the inserts on my Kholster. I love mine.

I don't think you can go wrong trying out a Kholster for two reasons.

One: the price
Two: The money back guarantee.

If you don't like it, Jimmy will refund your money. Period.

90 DAY UNCONDITIONAL NO STRINGS GUARANTEE
If you are not completely satisfied with your purchase for ANY reason, return it to us and we will fix it or refund the purchase price, which ever YOU prefer. All you pay is the shipping.
No strings attached. No kidding. Really.

I have worn mine for 8 hours or more and had zero discomfort.

I don't notice them on mine either, didn't even think about it til you posted it. Nope still nothing.
But I have heard great things about the mtac and comptac but never had one.

 

[hornadylnl]

I have an MTAC. The only thing I don't like about it is I wish the leather extended more rearward to protect my skin from the grip frame.

 

[CountryBoy19]

I've only owned a Crossbreed, but I love it.

I'm not sure how long Kholster has been making holsters, but AFAIK Crossbreed is the original part leather, part kydex holster of its style. IMHO, the others are just copying, and stealing his idea. But I could be wrong on that.

But to back up the Crossbreed, he will refund your money as well if you aren't satisfied. I also believe he now uses springsteel clips instead of the kydex ones. That solves the clip problems; but I've never had problem with my kydex clips, so I'm not exactly sure what the problem would be.

I'll give my money to Crossbreed.

I've had a Kholster for my Taurus 24/7 compact for about 8 months; its comfortable, and affordable, but it is ugly as hell compared to a crossbreed.

By the time you tighten the clips down the thread-inserts are flush with the leather. You won't feel them at all.

Actually, I think Crossbreed took the idea from MTAC.

Kholster is $47 shipped, half the price of Crossbreed. I don't think Crossbreed is twice the holster, IMO
