So I usually conceal carry a ruger lcp2 .380 or a Kahr p380 in a nylon holster stuffed in my back left pant pocket. I recently decided to buy a very small 9mm to use as a new ccw but might be a little too big for a pocket pistol. My question is, which type of holster do y’all like for summer? Leather or Kydex? As a land surveyor, summers are terrible, to me at least. But I was wondering about the folks who sweat 9-12 hours a day, which holds up better? Which is more comfortable, any rashes etc? I want to use leather but have seen what sweat can do over time to neck knife sheathes. Any advice is greatly appreciated! I found this leather IWB online, seems nice.

I’m a leather guy myself, but kydex might be the ticket like you said for summer sweat.

The various hybrid holsters are pretty good imo.

Impervious to sweat. I carry a G43 in one all summer on the tractor and in the woods. Very comfortable and minimalist.

I know you said IWB, but the P365 can be concealed with a t-shirt using a kydex OWB holster. Don’t get leather for OWB or IWB. OWB will be MUCH more comfortable working in the heat.

I bought a P365 at Academy last week and they had a kydex holster that you can use IWB or OWB. Been wearing it IWB all week and it’s working fine

Kydex.

Thanks guys for the advice. No that jsubrett6 mentioned it, IWB does sound better for summer time.

What brand/model was the holster?

Mission First Tactical. I don’t remember the model, but it was the only one in that brand they had.

Owb is going to keep some of the sweat off your pistol. But I like We the people and bravo concealment iwb
