The Deluxe Thoroughbred Holster is the most comfortable IWB Tuckable holster we offer. This is a major upgrade from the original A-1 Thoroughbred Holster. The deluxe thoroughbred holster comes with a suede backing to add comfort against the body. We don’t stop there; we add memory foam like material embedded inside the suede backing to add a cushion to your body. So if you are leaning against your weapon, then it will feel like memory foam pillow against your side. People are sometimes turned away by the initial size of this holster. But actually this holster only adds 1/8 of an inch (plus the gun’s width) to your pants. The NEW Deluxe Thoroughbred Holster is now slimmer than the original A-1 Thoroughbred Holster.
Functionally of the deluxe thoroughbred is amazing and like no other holster. Conceals very nicely, wraps the body and distributes the weight of the firearm, thus giving the ability to carry a much larger frame gun. While being comfortable for all day wear and still having a smaller profile. The combat cut, as given on the original A-1 Thoroughbred is an additional $6.00 as for the new Deluxe Thoroughbred holster the option is given and FREE (check out FAQ page for more info regarding combat cut).
The Deluxe Thoroughbred holster offers the most protection from sharp edges, safety, slide locks, and beaver tails. Not only does it protect you from the gun, it also protects the gun from the salts and sweat from your skin (body oils). Comes with two powder coated spring steel holster clips that are adjustable for ride height. There are 3 holes 1 inch apart on each side of the holster to allow you to adjust the cant and ride height of your holster. For a better and faster draw!
There is many options that you can choose from to attach the holster to your pants or belt. Options like: tuckable leather straps with a metal grade directional snap, tuckable spring steel powdered coated metal clips and lastly our new Ulticlip3.
The Deluxe Thoroughbred has a reinforced mouth piece for easy re-holstering. We use heavy nylon thread to help reduce against dry rotten, tearing or snagging like cotton thread. With this holster you have the option to choose your thread color and holster color.
The holster clips can fit up to 1-1/2 gun belt (2 layer) or 1-3/4 regular belt (1 layer).
This is no doubt the holster of choice to be wearing IWB!

Item ordered: Deluxe Thoroughbred Holster (A-1+)
The holster arrived ahead of the estimated schedule, and that was quite pleasing. While the lead time seems long, the holsters are hand-made, so it is to be expected.
The unboxing went well, and the inner packaging that contained the actual holster also had care instructions. Although these are available on the website, it’s a thoughtful inclusion. The holster itself was quite beautiful, and the fit and finish are top-notch. No dangling thread ends, no parts even slightly out of alignment; indeed, I would rate the craftsmanship as exceptional, and I am totally satisfied with my purchase.
The holster fit my sidearm like a glove, and while it is a very snug fit, in my case I did not need to do any work to finalize the fit. While the thumb-break strap did need a bit of encouragement the first time, even that required almost no effort. I opted for the UltiClip XL to secure the holster on my belt, and once you snap them into place, that holster is not going to move. If you didn’t get it exactly where you wanted it, you have to unlock the clips in order to slide it forward or back. Once you get it in the right place, it’ll stay there.
In conclusion, while these are not the cheapest on the market, nor the quickest to get delivered, you do get exactly what you’re paying for. High-quality, hand-made custom-fitted leather holsters, made with thick and solid pieces of leather that will last for years and years. Comfortable and secure, and well worth the time and money.
5/5, would buy again.
