Ok, Let's Talk Ankle Holsters...

Harley the Buckle Guy has them http://www.buckleguy.com/loops-and-sliders/ I think I have seen them at Tandy's and I have gotten them at Lowes or Home depot as well.

I like the design... I have carried a bunch of different ankle holsters over the last 20 years. The sheepskin breaths quite well. I would not be interested in neoprene... it will get too hot and sweaty. I have had a few that were made with a wicking type material that was padded, this was quite nice as well. I would question if your strap and buckle are wide enough. I always liked a WIDE strap that velcro'd so you could cinch it REAL tight... you may end up running with the thing on and it needs to not only be secure but hug the ankle tight.

The best thing to do is make it and wear it a bunch before you start producing it... go jog in it... you name it. You will then know if you have a winner.

I wore an ankle holster in both Africa and South Florida for a number of years and mine was commercially made with a lambswool lining. It was for a Beretta 22LR and was very comfortable, I never noticed it to be particularly hot and I still have the holster which is still ready to go.

It has been replaced by a bigger caliber in a smaller gun in a pocket holster although the Beretta I had was standard issue for Mosad at the time and one agent used it to single handed hold of a group Arab hijackers at an airport until help arrived.

Cya!

I thought this was a pretty good design.
