DIY Suede Wrap Kydex Holster 

Props to you for doing the hard work and sharing that golden knowledge with all the rest of us!

“People that dance.” We know it’s you that dances, and when you do, you’re as graceful as a gazelle.

Great video. I had never seen holsters wrapped before. I have a ton of leather, suedes, perforated leather, etc. that I got from a giant shoe manufacturer. I may try some of those out, and see how it goes.

You can find it on Amazon too. It's sold by Souls 2 Dance and fulfilled by Amazon so they must have a good supply.

Looks solid, great for rubbing against suit coats with owb holsters compared to straight up kydex.

That's cool. I still plan on getting a skeleton as soon as I have the dinero. You guys are awesome.

nice job! and nice of you to support the dance industry! :)

Great info and glad you are there. I have a question that has been bugging me for some time. It is the application of 1.5 oz leather like "Glazed Pig Lining" on the Kydex. I was thinking on using that type of leather with a spray type of adhesive like 3 Rubber And Vinyl 80 Spray Adhesive or Loctite spray adhesive high performance. Also could I still put it in the oven if I work up the temp slowly? Thanks.

Looks sweet guys!

You're the man, nice work

Nice video Jon, thanks for sharing

min 8:54, where did you get the variable speed buffer, make and model please! Thanks in advance

I'm gonna try to use the cordura multicam on an old holster. .qvo tactical sells cordura wrapped sheets of multicam kydex, but pretty sure they just used a spray adhesive on a sheet of kydex, ,..

How well would this stuff work on the inside where mag holsters are concerned? Like the G-Code Scorpion mag carriers?

Been a month since I bought the suede patch from yall. Good shipping and all from you guys so props! Sadly, should of gone on Amazon and bought a big sheet instead of two 3x3 from you guys. Liking the extra grip on it. Very nice on the side of my ass. :)

That looks pretty awesome! When are you adding that to the inventory?

I noticed that adhering the suede to .060 Kydex resulted in quite a thick product. Would you recommend going down to a .028 width Kydex to compensate for the suede??

Very nice.

what do you charge to suede wrap a holster that was not purchased from you?

Would suede be a good idea inside the kydex holster

Any issue with it peeling up? I used the non adhesive and just spray glue such a pain. But I did also have to run a lighter along edges to keep from fraying

you can now get it off amazon , just type the name in

Might be able to use a leather edger to smooth that over better but it's probably not worth the expense.

what is pro and contra to using faux suede for inner or outside lining. any one have critical issued with it?

Should bid for that holster you made

Are you planning to offer this as an option for your Access or Skeleton holsters?

Very cool!!!!

Can you do the same for a OWB Holster with real leather?

Would you make a holster for airsoft pistols ?????????

I hope you sell these one day!

As an ideal temperature for kydex in the electric oven, it is dangerous for it to soften to the point of nailing in the glove or in the eva of the press

Interesting...but can’t think where I’d ever do that on my holsters.

This is timely... I was going to start experimenting with spray on adhesives and synthetic suede material I found at a hobby shop... This self-adhesive stuff looks great, and much thicker than the fabric I have. Too bad they don't sell Multicam suede!

I made a couple of leather wrapped kydex holsters about 2 weeks ago for a guy, Kind of the same. He wanted the look of leather and the snap of kydex (his words not mine). I did make it in two pieces and then press it together with glue to hold them together But like you said, it takes to much time and in my case I have to make a kydex holster and a leather holster, two complete holsters and put them together so it doubles the price. you know what that does for costumers approval rates

Nope. We can't afford to take the time to make these. We sell small suede patches that the customer can apply wherever they want on the holster to improve their individual comfort. It's more cost/time effective for both parties.

Since you wont be mass producing these can I buy the one you made in the video lol? Seriously though. ...

I tell you what send me the holster, I wont pay since its not good enough to sell and ill give you a review on the holster....... call it a donation

Use beeswax to finish edge with a slicker. Wheel by hand

OK Safty Tip suede and leather Dust is very, very carcinogenic so you really really need to use extraction and resperators fro sanding and buffing its lighter Dust so will also stay in the air a long time and travel a long way if no contained

You said "draw stroke" hehe

No. It didn't come out good enough to sell. It's just a demo.

airsoft pistols are generaly the same size and dimensions of the real steel versions.

Thanks! But we won't be producing holsters like this. I'm sure that after watching this video, plenty of others will.

You can get the suede on Amazon cheaper.
