The absolute most comfortable appendix carry holster I’ve ever had. The Sig M18 rides like a dream in the Axis Elite.
Chris L.
Don’t waste your time with cheaper brands. More expensive but worth every penny. Will definitely buy another one soon for my p220. Maybe with my raving review they will give me a friends and family discount!
Drew M.
This is my 3rd tier 1 concealed axis elite holster.. it’s the best by far!
Drew M.
Tier 1 concealed is the best! Get one
Drew M.
P365xl with recon monsoon axis elite. Extended mag carrier. Tier 1 concealed is the best holster company on the market hands down. Wear it every day and working and it disappears and is real comfortable. Can’t go wrong!
Eduardo P.
I love it. It is very functional. Thanks.
Jonathan K.
One of my favorite holsters, I have one for my Glock 43 as well.
Joshua B.
I love my holster! Ive never tried a holster with a mag caddy but I’m glad I started with Tier 1. It fits perfect and works better than all my other holsters when it comes to sitting in the car and bending down. I’ll definitely be purchasing again!!!
Avi V.
I tried many appendix holsters, and this is definitely the best I ever had!
Makay F.
I love this holster! The axis elite is very comfortable and conceals perfectly. This holster is for my Glock 19 with a TLR-7A light. I’ve had holsters from other companies but now that Ive got a Tier 1 holster, I won’t go anywhere else.
Wade
As you can tell I am no longer a skinny guy. These holsters are very comfortable. I wear them daily. Best holster made IMHO
Jesus V.
This holster is awesome. The level of concealment is unreal and it’s very comfortable. If your on the fence, do it. Im 5”11 and 180lbs. I also use the medium wedge. It makes all the difference.
Johnny P.
Fits me and my Shadow Systems MR920 great! Looks great as well!

T1C is the best holster manufacturer in the industry and the Axis Elite is their flagship offering. Do you want gear that allows you to achieve the fastest draw, the most comfort, and the best concealability? The Axis Elite is exactly what you are looking for. These are the only holsters I buy anymore and T1C has earned a loyal customer for life with their top-tier quality and their above and beyond customer service. The juice is 100% worth the squeeze!
Zean K.
Great holster, fits like a glove ,
Samuel C.
Very satisfied
Alex H.
Amazing quality, overall very satisfied with the purchase!
Gary M.
Awesome holster!
Taylor B.
Absolutely amazing holster. I was hesitant with how much it costs. But worth every penny. I am 6 foot around 215 pounds and easily concealing a Glock 17 with no printing
Joe C.
I was having issues with a holster from another company. No matter what I did, I couldn't get my pistol to stop printing through my shirt. I heard lots of great things about the Axis Elite so I ordered it in Carbon Fiber Red. I am very happy with this purchase. I tried it on and had little to no printing issues. The addition of the shock cord gives it the perfect amount of flex to help contour to your body. The concealment claw with the pressure stacks is genius. Every AIWB holster should have one. And the carbon fiber red looks even better in person. Combined with the T1C x KORE EDC Belt, concealed carry just got a whole lot better.

Good product & fairly represented on website. Fit and finish is excellent. Comfortable to wear (even for fat boys like me). Could go on to tout all the phenomenal things that it does, but in reality it is a good, well thought out holster system for appendix carry that is a cut above the test. "Nuff said.
Ryan A.
Absolutely amazing customer service!
Elcid L.
This is the most comfortable holster I have ever put on my person, I have this holster for my G17 &G19. I have the light bearing one as well but this none WML axis elite is now my go to.
Justin C.
Love it
Gregory P.
This is the best holster I ever purchased seriously..... I've tried a few companies and this company will get my business again. You get what you pay for and it's well spent.
Tom W.
Recently put a Holosun optic on my Glock and had no appendix holster for concealment. The Tier 1 is everything I heard it was. I especially like the comfort, ease of access, and the mag pouch attached to the rig so no additional IWB pouches are needed. Great product!
Brody R.
I carried a CZ P10c for a couple years but always thought it was uncomfortable, personally. After changing up my EDC, I bought the Axis Elite for my 43x mos. Hands down the most comfortable AIWB I have carried to this day. I will continue looking at Tier 1 for any future EDC needs. Great product.
Dan S.
Awesome fit & finish, my favorite holster company
Kendell G.
Very comfortable
Jason H.
Amazing holster! Extremely comfortable and a great fit to the firearm. I recommend these to everyone I know that caries concealed now.
Daniel M.
It's as I had expected coming from this company I knew it would be a great addition to my hardware good fit great quality and attention to detail.
Matt H.
This holster is what I’ve been wanting. This makes concealed carry as comfortable as can be. Easy to take on and off as needed can be fit to anyone’s needs! A++
Carlton H.

Great
Connor L.
Just got my second holster from Tier 1 and I couldn’t be happier. These are the best holsters on the market right now. They are super comfortable and the elastic shock cord allows the gun to move as you do. I am a mechanic so I am constantly moving around and bending down all day long so that was super important for me and this holster exceeded my expectations. They are super high quality (the bottom holster has had about a year of use and still looks new) and the finish is very smooth so there are no sharp edged to scratch or cut when it is worn. Overall I have nothing but positive things to say about Tier 1 as a company and the product they sell. These are the only holsters I highly recommend to anyone that asks about concealed carry. 10/10 recommend to anyone looking to get a quality conceal carry holster that they expect to last for years on end.
Joe C.
I was using an AIWB holster from another company and was getting frustrated that I couldn’t get it to stop printing no matter what I did. Belts, wedges, etc… I’d heard lots of good things about the Axis Elite so I decided to order one. I was shocked at how well it worked for me. Little to no printing issues. It sits nice and flush on me. The adjustable claw should be on every AIWB holster. Brilliant idea. Had one little pressure point but a Tier 1 wedge took care of that. The lead time was a downer but it was worth the wait. Fantastic holster. And the red carbon is awesome. Will def be buying more Tier 1 products in the future.
Ryan S.
I never thought I'd be able to get appendix carry to work for me. I always carried 4 o'clock until I saw a video featuring the Axis Elite. It looked awesome and I've always wanted to get appendix carry to work, so I decided to go all out and buy an Axis Elite. If I couldn't make it work then I'd give up on it for good. Started with the p365xl. Holster came and I was really impressed with it. Great quality and feel in the hand. I put my wedge on and tried it out, and to my surprise it worked perfect. Took a couple days to get used to it and now I can't imagine carrying any other way. Then I ordered one for my MR920 with TLR-1. I was a little nervous about this one since it's bigger and with a light but again it worked perfectly. Conceals great and is plenty comfortable. I love the bungie cord, it allows the holster to flex as you move and bend, really helps in comfort.
I ordered one for my Shield Plus next. The holster came but it had a few issues. Customer service was great and I've got a replacement holster being made. That really showed me that they stand behind their product and care about the end user experience. I will soon be ordering T1C's for my other guns.
I would recommend the Axis Elite to anyone looking to get a dedicated appendix carry holster, buy with confidence!
Makay F.
This is the best holster out there. I got the axis elite for my Glock 19 with a TLR 7A light and I love it!
Jesus V.
The most comfortable holster Ive ever worn. It doesn’t print one bit. For info it has the +4 mag; I’m 5”11 and 180lbs. If your thinking of buying it, do it.
Richard H.
Absolutely love the fit, finish and Conceal ability of this holster for my Staccato 2011.
Well worth the price.
I’ll probably be ordering one for my
Walther pdp full size.
Many thanks Tier 1
Joshua L.
I have had really good luck with my T1 Axis Elite for my Shadow Systems MR 920. When I needed a holster for my Sig 365 I didn’t even bother looking at other companies. Strait to the best T1 Axis Elite.
Kendell G.
Perfection!!!
Roger P.
I absolutely love this rig. Getting use to carrying amby was easy. Dont get me wrong it was a learing curve. Overall it is very comfy. Mobility is not hindered at all. I am able to do anything I wish when wearing this rig.
William M.
This is the most comfortable IWB holster I have used. It is a bit more expensive than the competition, but in the end, there is no competition. The concealability and comfort are way above other holsters. This thing is a beast and I love it. You guys might be on to something here. :)
Alex S.
Best on the market
Patrick P.
I love this holster should have bought this years ago game changer
Joshua B.
I was skeptical at first at having a holster with an extra mag as this was my first one. I am extremely happy about choosing Tier 1. I’ve never been able to sit in my car comfortably with my other holsters but I can with this one. This is where I’m going to get my holsters from now on
Jan D.
Holster is really great. I am very satisfied with it, it is comfortable to wear, it adapts well (within limits) to the figure and movement. It has many customization options. I can wear it all day and it doesn't bother me.
I don't want to come across as the only critic in a flood of complimentary comments. But to be fair, there are two things that disappointed me a bit. The first was the fact that away from the body, the gun wobbles a bit in the holster, there is some space given by the spacers on the bolts near the retention screw. The spacers are a bit higher and so create space in the holster. I don't know if it's intentional, but other holsters I have hold the gun firmly. It's much better when the holster is on your body, but worse if you hold it in your hand.
The other thing was the torn off cross in head of bolt that holds the detachable parts of the claw. You can see it in the photo as well, it created a sharp edges that I will have to file or replace the bolt. Due to shipping and all sorts of fees, this holster is very expensive in Europe so these things are a bit of a bummer. But I know it's nothing major.
Overall though I am very happy and would definitely buy again or wouldn't hesitate to recommend to someone else.
Elbert P.
Very comfy, should have bought years ago
Chris R.
Absolutely love this holster! I want to start by saying that I don’t normally write reviews on things, But I felt the need to do it for this holster. Over the past year of carrying I’ve tried a whole bunch of appendix holsters. I’ve found good ones but they never stayed in place right or they always seemed to print a little bit. I also have a little bit of a “Tactical belly” so printing can sometimes be an issue. This one is very secure. Every time I got a new holster to try I felt like I was searching for something else within a couple days. But not this time. I think I’ve found the one. I kept putting off buying a tier 1 simply because of the price and I wasn’t sure how bulky an appendix rig would feel. I’ve tried wedges and claws on other holsters and nothing seemed great. I finally broke down and bought the axis elite and it is 100% worth the money. I also ordered a wedge pack thinking I would need it to help tuck the gun a little more but I didn’t even need to open it. This holster really evens out the load on your belt line and makes it so much more comfortable to carry. My only problem now is that I need to buy more for my other carry guns and another one for my Sig 365XL with ulti-clips Lol. I will definitely be recommending this to everyone I know. Thanks for making a great holster!
REMBERT R.
Fits my War Poet with TLR7a very well. Well-built (like my other Tier1). Will buy again.
Israel R.
My favorite holster. I'm a big fella and this holster feels comfortable. Do NOT hesitate in ordering one you won't regret it. Great quality and amazing customer service I had my questiones answerd pretty quick.
Tayte C.
Love the Fitment and look very well built and will last a long time
Trevor B.
Gun fits perfect! Very comfortable to wear!
Tyler d.
This is by far the best concealed holster I’ve ever had. I can wear it all day without even noticing it. It’s comfy, feels durable, and once the screws are set it doesn’t move. I’ve drawn probably 100 times from the holster and could go do a backflip and it would stay in
Ryan
This is my second Axis Elite and third T1C holster overall, they are the best I've found.
The axis elite especially is the most comfortable appendix rig i've tried. Don't sleep on the wedge packs!
Skyler
Hands down the best AIWB holster their is. Fits my gen 5 G19 perfect, extremely comfortable and easy to conceal. T1C will always be my go to for holsters.
Aaron P.
Best holster i’ve ever owned hands down. Will definitely be purchasing more in the future!
Kyle G.
Love the axis elite! Great fitment and concealment! This is my now go to holster and the only way I’ll carry from now on! If you’re looking for the perfect holster, especially for appendix carry, this is the one!
Christopher L.
I am just like most people who choose to conceal carry on a daily basis. I have "that box" of holsters that don't quite work as I'd hoped they would.
I am on constant alert for the rig that will be comfortable enough so I can carry it without printing and still be usable where access and utility are optimized.
I watched countless videos, read many articles, and wasted money, just like you.
I decided to spend the money on a more expensive holster that might do the job I want it to do and still be comfortable. I chose the Tier 1 Axis Elite for my P365XL with a green dot. I have been wearing it for about two weeks now and am thus far, happy with my choice. I have even gone so far as to recommend it to several of my friends and people at my gun club. The comfort, fit, and accessibility are first rate. The retention is great and the position is perfect for me.
I will keep using this rig for now and hopefully, it is the last holster I will buy for a while.
Raji K.
This holster fits perfectly, feels good and has a dope as design scheme that I really love.
Highly recommend Tier 1 for your holster needs.
Don’t know how to build out your holster? No problem they got you covered.
After I described my body type, type of clothing I wear etc, they easily recommended the kind of wedge size, clip style and more.
Thanks to them I have a comfortable holster if not for them helping me I truly believe I would’ve built out an uncomfortable holster.
The only down side to this holster was it scratched up the top part of my Glock 26 frame.
Yea people tell me to suck it up, or stop babying your gun, but when you greatly appreciate something especially something crucial like a holster to carry your protection just gets my OCD all crazy when I see scratches and paint marks on my gun.
Nonetheless it doesn’t affect my gun’s operation just kinda disappointed the aesthetics of my Glock got a little worse with using the holster.
Definitely going to buy a IWB holster from Tier 1 for my Glock 17 and I will definitely leave a review for that one.
Tracy T.
I am really impressed with the quality and comfort of this holster. I wasn't too sure about appendix carry since this is the first holster of it's type that I've purchased, but it's a lot more comfortable than I expected and it conceals like a dream. I will definitely be coming back for more holsters for my other handguns.
Tony I.
This makes four Axis Elites, so to say I love the set up is a understatement. Easily concealed even with a dad bod, easy on and off. At 55 I've tried every holster out there at every position and the elite has guality built in you can feel right away, there’s no faster draw either I’ve timed it. With a trip to Florida coming in the near future I knew I would need a quality holster for the 43X and a spare mag so after having holsters for the 19, 19x with TLR7A, G45 with TLR7, it was a easy choice.
Chris W.
This is my second appendix rig from T1C, love their products. Worth the money!
Jaquayvion S.
absolutely I love with it.it very comfortable will be shopping with you guys again thank you so much for all the hard work you guys do to make such an amazing product..
Tim C.
10/10 would recommend to a friend
Doug W.
This is my third one, and it is very comfortable. Carrying a Glock 19, with a TLR-7A light and a 2 round extended magazine. I bought one for use without the light as well. Highly recommend the holster.
Trevor K.
Top notch holster. Had to make a second one with no light and did not disappoint. Quick shipping
Josh W.
I was a little worried at first, but once I got the height adjusted for the clips it conceals much better.
Matthew J.
I've tried many different AIWB holsters and this is by far the most comfortable one that I have tried. Already recommended it to multiple people! Well worth the cost over cheap and uncomfortable ones for sure!
Roger M.
The holster was shipped and arrived in a very reasonable amount of time. I’ve only used/worn it for 4 days but, this thing is very comfortable. Workmanship is excellent. This is the 6th holster manufacturer I’ve purchased from and I must say it’s the most comfortable IWB holster I’ve used this far. Great job folks.
Stephen S.
This AIWB holster and sidecar is truly unbeatable. I don't know that there could be anything done to this combo to increase the comfortability. And the dust topo design is extremely attractive! T1C is officially my only holster company from here on out.
Matthew V.
great aiwb carry!
fabian a.
Appendix carry is naturally a little uncomfortable because you have a big heavy thing bewteen your stomach and pants. However, With the right pants ,belt and the right holster its not a problem! T1C rig is one bad sucker i Edc and run with my rig and you cant even tell its there. If you find yourself wondering if the holster is worth it the reviews , quality & durability speaks for itself. Definitely get what you pay for.
Max Z.
Absolutley love my holster. Assuring click when it goes in and comfortable fit. Customer service was absolutely awesome. Will deffenatly recommend.
Spencer H.
By far the best holster I have used. I definitely plan to buy more in the future.
Lee D.
“Appealing… I plan on possibly getting another one for my ‘Springfield Hellcat’. Great Product ,particularly the ‘UTI-Clips’!”
Aaron P.
Best appendix rig on the market hands down. Well worth the money! I recommend this to everyone i can.
Christopher R.
Far more comfortable than my single pistol holsters for my smaller handgun. Having the spare mag easy ILT accessible next to my handgun saves time on reloads and improves confidence that the mag will be right where it should be when I need it. Highly recommend
John M.
Never knew a AIWB holster could be so comfy! Very slick rig. Works amazingly.
Josh A.
Outstanding customer service and communication! Awesome product as well… very happy and glad I went with T1C!
Brandon M.
I like the look at the feel of the holster! It sits a little close to my stomach which makes it’s kinda difficult I’m a skinny guy, with a small gun like a p365, add the wedge is kinda hard to find the right spot to put it but all in all best quality and just gotta work the wedges to you best comfort and ability!
Anthony C.
Best holster and company in the game. Had some rare issues this one time but customer service was amazing and took care of me. T1C is the best of the best and would recommend to anyone.
Pedro B.
Having never carried in this position, and debating whether or not it would work as advertised, I can honestly say that I am extremely happy with my purchase. It took about a week and a half to become comfortable physically and mentally do to the obvious. The most important aspect being the amazing comfort that I was hoping it would meet. Phenomenal holster.. Thanks Tier 1!!
Keith W.
Bought two of them. Two different gun sizes. Both holster are comfortable, to wear while sitting or driving for long periods.
The only negative, which is my fault, I should have ordered the wide/extra wide wedges, instead of the regular/standard width.
Joseph R.
I was weary of it being so bulky, but man oh man it is some pretty slick rigging. It’s quite comfortable, and conceals nice this is my 6th holster and they really do just keep getting better and better.
Jesse C.
Been wearing for couple weeks without wedge. Awesome from wearing while doing yard work, trail hike, motorcycle trip, and watching new Batman flick. Just got belt and wedge in today. Ready to try on Viking camping trip. Your videos on how to wear greatly helped. Keep up the great work.
Dylan T.
Very light and conceals like a dream I love it will definitely buy again for other guns
Oscar R.
Amazing holster! Best in the game! T1C all the way!
Carson G.
Fits great, feels great, looks great! Couldn't be happier!
Thomas W.
Loving this holster for my p365xl. Out of the box, it's so comfortable that I fell asleep on the couch while wearing it. Almost unnoticeable.
Binh P.
I don’t think there is any other company that can make a P320 X-5 Legion feel comfortable in AIWB carry. I honestly just bought it for shits and giggles but it feels great with a Kore Essentials belt
Ty J.
Excellent products and service
Andrew N.
This is my second Axis slim from Tier 1. I absolutely love this holster. Sometimes I even forget that I'm wearing it. Whether, I'm doing projects inside the home or weeding in the yard, it's on and doesn't impact my mobility. 11/10 doctors would recommend this holster.
Jeremy S.
I’ve been looking into T1C for a long time and I finally pulled the trigger. I have definitely found my last holster. Everything about this holster puts a smile on my face. Lead time was a bummer but boy was it worth the wait. I’m definitely a T1C Fan-addict haha
Trey N.
This will probably be the last holster I'll ever buy. The combination of the wing and ridge on the sidecar make this holster just disappear under the shirt, I'm fairly slim so that can be difficult at times. I actually ended up removing a layer from the wing due to how effective it is. Quality & texture is great, everything is rounded nicely. I do have a stress mark under one of the rivets but its quite negligible and it won't harm anything. Overall great holster, I'm most definitely getting the UltiClips when I have the money.
Brandon V.
My favorite holster by far.
Tony E.
This holster is awesome I work 8-10 hour days(not a cushy desk job) and it has held up wonderfully and is super comfortable worth every penny
Stephen L.
The holster is very comfortable to wear and I would recommend anybody to get it. The gun doesn’t print or very little because of the claw pushing the gun/magazine inward. I would buy another one in the future for my future guns

The most comfortable holster Ive ever worn. It doesn’t print one bit. For info it has the +4 mag; I’m 5”11 and 180lbs. If your thinking of buying it, do it.
Richard H.
Absolutely love the fit, finish and Conceal ability of this holster for my Staccato 2011.
Well worth the price.
I’ll probably be ordering one for my
Walther pdp full size.
Many thanks Tier 1

I have had really good luck with my T1 Axis Elite for my Shadow Systems MR 920. When I needed a holster for my Sig 365 I didn’t even bother looking at other companies. Strait to the best T1 Axis Elite.

Perfection!!!

I absolutely love this rig. Getting use to carrying amby was easy. Dont get me wrong it was a learing curve. Overall it is very comfy. Mobility is not hindered at all. I am able to do anything I wish when wearing this rig.

This is the most comfortable IWB holster I have used. It is a bit more expensive than the competition, but in the end, there is no competition. The concealability and comfort are way above other holsters. This thing is a beast and I love it. You guys might be on to something here. :)

Best on the market

I love this holster should have bought this years ago game changer

I was skeptical at first at having a holster with an extra mag as this was my first one. I am extremely happy about choosing Tier 1. I’ve never been able to sit in my car comfortably with my other holsters but I can with this one. This is where I’m going to get my holsters from now on
Jan D.
Holster is really great. I am very satisfied with it, it is comfortable to wear, it adapts well (within limits) to the figure and movement. It has many customization options. I can wear it all day and it doesn't bother me.
I don't want to come across as the only critic in a flood of complimentary comments. But to be fair, there are two things that disappointed me a bit. The first was the fact that away from the body, the gun wobbles a bit in the holster, there is some space given by the spacers on the bolts near the retention screw. The spacers are a bit higher and so create space in the holster. I don't know if it's intentional, but other holsters I have hold the gun firmly. It's much better when the holster is on your body, but worse if you hold it in your hand.
The other thing was the torn off cross in head of bolt that holds the detachable parts of the claw. You can see it in the photo as well, it created a sharp edges that I will have to file or replace the bolt. Due to shipping and all sorts of fees, this holster is very expensive in Europe so these things are a bit of a bummer. But I know it's nothing major.
Overall though I am very happy and would definitely buy again or wouldn't hesitate to recommend to someone else.

Very comfy, should have bought years ago

Absolutely love this holster! I want to start by saying that I don’t normally write reviews on things, But I felt the need to do it for this holster. Over the past year of carrying I’ve tried a whole bunch of appendix holsters. I’ve found good ones but they never stayed in place right or they always seemed to print a little bit. I also have a little bit of a “Tactical belly” so printing can sometimes be an issue. This one is very secure. Every time I got a new holster to try I felt like I was searching for something else within a couple days. But not this time. I think I’ve found the one. I kept putting off buying a tier 1 simply because of the price and I wasn’t sure how bulky an appendix rig would feel. I’ve tried wedges and claws on other holsters and nothing seemed great. I finally broke down and bought the axis elite and it is 100% worth the money. I also ordered a wedge pack thinking I would need it to help tuck the gun a little more but I didn’t even need to open it. This holster really evens out the load on your belt line and makes it so much more comfortable to carry. My only problem now is that I need to buy more for my other carry guns and another one for my Sig 365XL with ulti-clips Lol. I will definitely be recommending this to everyone I know. Thanks for making a great holster!

Fits my War Poet with TLR7a very well. Well-built (like my other Tier1). Will buy again.
Israel R.
My favorite holster. I'm a big fella and this holster feels comfortable. Do NOT hesitate in ordering one you won't regret it. Great quality and amazing customer service I had my questiones answerd pretty quick.
Tayte C.
Love the Fitment and look very well built and will last a long time
Trevor B.
Gun fits perfect! Very comfortable to wear!
Tyler d.
This is by far the best concealed holster I’ve ever had. I can wear it all day without even noticing it. It’s comfy, feels durable, and once the screws are set it doesn’t move. I’ve drawn probably 100 times from the holster and could go do a backflip and it would stay in
Ryan
This is my second Axis Elite and third T1C holster overall, they are the best I've found.
The axis elite especially is the most comfortable appendix rig i've tried. Don't sleep on the wedge packs!
Skyler
Hands down the best AIWB holster their is. Fits my gen 5 G19 perfect, extremely comfortable and easy to conceal. T1C will always be my go to for holsters.
Aaron P.
Best holster i’ve ever owned hands down. Will definitely be purchasing more in the future!
Kyle G.
Love the axis elite! Great fitment and concealment! This is my now go to holster and the only way I’ll carry from now on! If you’re looking for the perfect holster, especially for appendix carry, this is the one!
Christopher L.
I am just like most people who choose to conceal carry on a daily basis. I have "that box" of holsters that don't quite work as I'd hoped they would.
I am on constant alert for the rig that will be comfortable enough so I can carry it without printing and still be usable where access and utility are optimized.
I watched countless videos, read many articles, and wasted money, just like you.
I decided to spend the money on a more expensive holster that might do the job I want it to do and still be comfortable. I chose the Tier 1 Axis Elite for my P365XL with a green dot. I have been wearing it for about two weeks now and am thus far, happy with my choice. I have even gone so far as to recommend it to several of my friends and people at my gun club. The comfort, fit, and accessibility are first rate. The retention is great and the position is perfect for me.
I will keep using this rig for now and hopefully, it is the last holster I will buy for a while.
Raji K.
This holster fits perfectly, feels good and has a dope as design scheme that I really love.
Highly recommend Tier 1 for your holster needs.
Don’t know how to build out your holster? No problem they got you covered.
After I described my body type, type of clothing I wear etc, they easily recommended the kind of wedge size, clip style and more.
Thanks to them I have a comfortable holster if not for them helping me I truly believe I would’ve built out an uncomfortable holster.
The only down side to this holster was it scratched up the top part of my Glock 26 frame.
Yea people tell me to suck it up, or stop babying your gun, but when you greatly appreciate something especially something crucial like a holster to carry your protection just gets my OCD all crazy when I see scratches and paint marks on my gun.
Nonetheless it doesn’t affect my gun’s operation just kinda disappointed the aesthetics of my Glock got a little worse with using the holster.
Definitely going to buy a IWB holster from Tier 1 for my Glock 17 and I will definitely leave a review for that one.
Tracy T.
I am really impressed with the quality and comfort of this holster. I wasn't too sure about appendix carry since this is the first holster of it's type that I've purchased, but it's a lot more comfortable than I expected and it conceals like a dream. I will definitely be coming back for more holsters for my other handguns.
Tony I.
This makes four Axis Elites, so to say I love the set up is a understatement. Easily concealed even with a dad bod, easy on and off. At 55 I've tried every holster out there at every position and the elite has guality built in you can feel right away, there’s no faster draw either I’ve timed it. With a trip to Florida coming in the near future I knew I would need a quality holster for the 43X and a spare mag so after having holsters for the 19, 19x with TLR7A, G45 with TLR7, it was a easy choice.
Chris W.
This is my second appendix rig from T1C, love their products. Worth the money!
Jaquayvion S.
absolutely I love with it.it very comfortable will be shopping with you guys again thank you so much for all the hard work you guys do to make such an amazing product..
Tim C.
10/10 would recommend to a friend
Doug W.
This is my third one, and it is very comfortable. Carrying a Glock 19, with a TLR-7A light and a 2 round extended magazine. I bought one for use without the light as well. Highly recommend the holster.
Trevor K.
Top notch holster. Had to make a second one with no light and did not disappoint. Quick shipping
Josh W.
I was a little worried at first, but once I got the height adjusted for the clips it conceals much better.
Matthew J.
I've tried many different AIWB holsters and this is by far the most comfortable one that I have tried. Already recommended it to multiple people! Well worth the cost over cheap and uncomfortable ones for sure!
Roger M.
The holster was shipped and arrived in a very reasonable amount of time. I’ve only used/worn it for 4 days but, this thing is very comfortable. Workmanship is excellent. This is the 6th holster manufacturer I’ve purchased from and I must say it’s the most comfortable IWB holster I’ve used this far. Great job folks.
Stephen S.
This AIWB holster and sidecar is truly unbeatable. I don't know that there could be anything done to this combo to increase the comfortability. And the dust topo design is extremely attractive! T1C is officially my only holster company from here on out.
Matthew V.
great aiwb carry!
fabian a.
Appendix carry is naturally a little uncomfortable because you have a big heavy thing bewteen your stomach and pants. However, With the right pants ,belt and the right holster its not a problem! T1C rig is one bad sucker i Edc and run with my rig and you cant even tell its there. If you find yourself wondering if the holster is worth it the reviews , quality & durability speaks for itself. Definitely get what you pay for.
Max Z.
Absolutley love my holster. Assuring click when it goes in and comfortable fit. Customer service was absolutely awesome. Will deffenatly recommend.
Spencer H.
By far the best holster I have used. I definitely plan to buy more in the future.
Lee D.
“Appealing… I plan on possibly getting another one for my ‘Springfield Hellcat’. Great Product ,particularly the ‘UTI-Clips’!”
Aaron P.
Best appendix rig on the market hands down. Well worth the money! I recommend this to everyone i can.
Christopher R.
Far more comfortable than my single pistol holsters for my smaller handgun. Having the spare mag easy ILT accessible next to my handgun saves time on reloads and improves confidence that the mag will be right where it should be when I need it. Highly recommend
John M.
Never knew a AIWB holster could be so comfy! Very slick rig. Works amazingly.
Josh A.
Outstanding customer service and communication! Awesome product as well… very happy and glad I went with T1C!
Brandon M.
I like the look at the feel of the holster! It sits a little close to my stomach which makes it’s kinda difficult I’m a skinny guy, with a small gun like a p365, add the wedge is kinda hard to find the right spot to put it but all in all best quality and just gotta work the wedges to you best comfort and ability!
Anthony C.
Best holster and company in the game. Had some rare issues this one time but customer service was amazing and took care of me. T1C is the best of the best and would recommend to anyone.
Pedro B.
Having never carried in this position, and debating whether or not it would work as advertised, I can honestly say that I am extremely happy with my purchase. It took about a week and a half to become comfortable physically and mentally do to the obvious. The most important aspect being the amazing comfort that I was hoping it would meet. Phenomenal holster.. Thanks Tier 1!!
Keith W.
Bought two of them. Two different gun sizes. Both holster are comfortable, to wear while sitting or driving for long periods.
The only negative, which is my fault, I should have ordered the wide/extra wide wedges, instead of the regular/standard width.
Joseph R.
I was weary of it being so bulky, but man oh man it is some pretty slick rigging. It’s quite comfortable, and conceals nice this is my 6th holster and they really do just keep getting better and better.
Jesse C.
Been wearing for couple weeks without wedge. Awesome from wearing while doing yard work, trail hike, motorcycle trip, and watching new Batman flick. Just got belt and wedge in today. Ready to try on Viking camping trip. Your videos on how to wear greatly helped. Keep up the great work.
Dylan T.
Very light and conceals like a dream I love it will definitely buy again for other guns
Oscar R.
Amazing holster! Best in the game! T1C all the way!
Carson G.
Fits great, feels great, looks great! Couldn't be happier!
Thomas W.
Loving this holster for my p365xl. Out of the box, it's so comfortable that I fell asleep on the couch while wearing it. Almost unnoticeable.
Binh P.
I don’t think there is any other company that can make a P320 X-5 Legion feel comfortable in AIWB carry. I honestly just bought it for shits and giggles but it feels great with a Kore Essentials belt
Ty J.
Excellent products and service
Andrew N.
This is my second Axis slim from Tier 1. I absolutely love this holster. Sometimes I even forget that I'm wearing it. Whether, I'm doing projects inside the home or weeding in the yard, it's on and doesn't impact my mobility. 11/10 doctors would recommend this holster.
Jeremy S.
I’ve been looking into T1C for a long time and I finally pulled the trigger. I have definitely found my last holster. Everything about this holster puts a smile on my face. Lead time was a bummer but boy was it worth the wait. I’m definitely a T1C Fan-addict haha
Trey N.
This will probably be the last holster I'll ever buy. The combination of the wing and ridge on the sidecar make this holster just disappear under the shirt, I'm fairly slim so that can be difficult at times. I actually ended up removing a layer from the wing due to how effective it is. Quality & texture is great, everything is rounded nicely. I do have a stress mark under one of the rivets but its quite negligible and it won't harm anything. Overall great holster, I'm most definitely getting the UltiClips when I have the money.
Brandon V.
My favorite holster by far.
Tony E.
This holster is awesome I work 8-10 hour days(not a cushy desk job) and it has held up wonderfully and is super comfortable worth every penny
Stephen L.
The holster is very comfortable to wear and I would recommend anybody to get it. The gun doesn’t print or very little because of the claw pushing the gun/magazine inward. I would buy another one in the future for my future guns
You are looking at our AXIS ELITE holster! Specially designed for appendix carry, this brand new design has a ton of amazing features!
- Even SLIMMER Profile
- Built-In Concealment Ridge On The Magazine
- Magazine Retention Moved To Inside To Reduce Size
- All ELITES Are Optic And Suppressor Height Sight Compatible (*SIGHTS TALLER THAN 0.3800" WON'T FIT*)
- Slightly Canted Magazine Angle For More Ergonomic Access
- Strategically Placed Gusseting To Increase Strength In Problem Areas
- Non-Light Bearing Holsters Will Have Concealment Wing
- Light Bearing Holsters Will Have Concealment Claw
The AXIS ELITE is fastened together with military-grade shock cord and allows the firearm to flex closer into the body independently of the magazine for better concealment. This connection also allows the holster to flex where needed while performing other acts like getting in and out of vehicles and bending over.
Over time and a lot of use, the shock cord may need to be replaced. It can also be easily removed and swapped out with different colors.
