The shoulder strap took the oil in way faster then the rest of the rig. And is noticeddarker.aaca21fc-222c-4445-8558-b041b3e9c41d.jpg.05918bed732806b95d33fb9bc9f87ed1.jpg

Looks good.  How do the thin straps handle the weight of the shooter?

Actually pretty well it's a light gun and I want it to look real clean and classy so i went with the thinner straps.

I see the holster is not wet-molded to the gun. And no strap of any kind. What are you planning for retention, as the gun is effectively horizontal in the holster? One doesn't want those yay-hoos at the corral laughing when the gun falls out. 

And don't sweat the basketweave flattening out at the fold, I know I've done it, and I'll bet almost everyone has on a early holster. It's a big part of the learning curve. A learning curve I'm still waiting to straighten out  a bit.

BTW, my first Mexican loop holster was my first holster, for a breaktop H&R revolver, and I won't even put the pics up on this forum. 'Cause it was NASTY!

So much leather...so little time.
