Are you searching for the right holster for your gun? Since 2013, we’ve manufactured quality Kydex gun holsters at Eclipse Holsters. If you are in the market for your first gun holster, you might not even know what kydex is. The gun holsters displayed on the silver screen generally are leather holsters. Leather has a certain appeal; people love the smell, feel, and look of quality leather. However, not all leathers are created equal; the highest-quality leather is made from the entire hide, but the lowest-quality leather is constructed from scraps that are glued together. Today, we would like to discuss the benefits of purchasing a kydex holster:
If you live in a humid climate or an area where it snows or rains frequently, a leather holster may be less-than-ideal. Not only does leather attract moisture, including sweat, but it retains moisture as well. When a leather holster retains water, it dampens your gun, which causes it to rust. However, a kydex holster can simply be wiped off when it is exposed to water or sweat, keeping your gun dry and rust-free.
Even the highest-quality leather holsters can lose their shape over time, and they lose their shape even faster if they are exposed to dampness of any kind. Kydex holsters keep their shape, making it easy for the wearer to re-holster her gun.
One of the biggest advantages of kydex holsters is their excellent retention. If you roll or fall wearing a leather holster, your pistol could accidentally disengage, which could have fatal results. On the other hand, our kydex gun holsters offer superior retention levels, keeping you and the people around you safe at all times.
Kydex is lighter and thinner than leather, which makes it more comfortable and easier to conceal than a leather holster. When you are carrying a gun for long periods of time, comfort is key, which is why kydex is the better option.
When in a life or death situation, a quick draw could save your life. The interior of kydex holsters have a smooth plastic texture, which allows for high-speed draws. The interior of leather holsters have a less smooth texture, which creates friction, causing drag and slowing down the draw.
