I ordered the axis slim for a Glock 43x with TLR-6 light and a large size wedge. The craftsmanship is bar none compared to many of the Jude’s holsters I’ve tried and seen from my friends. The retaining adjustment screws were easy to adjust to my liking. The Ez clips were a breeze to adjust. Overall I’m very happy with my purchase. Carbon fiber front & kryptic white back. It’s super sick. Will buy from again!
Riley H.
Excellent fit, but more importantly, excellent concealment. Very little to no printing while using a 3 round mag extender on my spare mag.
Carlos O.
Holster is very concealable and comfortable. Will order another for another firearm in the future

I have a custom trigger guard undercut and it still holds my Glock just fine without issues. I made a mistake on my order and Tier One fixed it for me within 12 hours. It takes a while to be made but comes quick with shipping; it is definitely worth the wait. The company uses high quality materials, guarantees all features listed and is very helpful/responsive. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a great all around appendix holster.
Drew M.
Excellent Holster. Excellent customer service. Teir one experience.
Thomas G.
Great quality, made carrying appendix alot easier being that wear a t-shirt most of the time. Secure even when working around the farm and in the woods. Great buy
Joey S.
So reliable.
Joel M.
Quality holster with fantastic magazine and weapon retention!

Took about a month to get it. Completely worth it though. It's by far my favorite and best quality holster I have. Highly recommend
Alex M.
My 12th holster from tier 1 for my glock 30sf and my glock 29 gen 3 never a disappointment i love all these holsters you all did a great job again thank you!!
Luke L.
Fits great, was very fast build/ship time compared to other holster makers, comfortable and the finish is great. Rounded edges and enclosed barrel end, the clips are adequate, and retention adjustment is great.
Kyle T.
Hands down the most comfortable holster I've owned!

The Axis Slim is my favorite holster. I have quite a few holsters from other reputable companies but the Axis Slim is by the best and most comfortable one. Definitely picking another one for my Glock 19.

Axis slim with a 5 inch 1911 and X300. I’ve tried other appendix rigs and while they aren’t bad, Tier 1 is by far the best and most comfortable. I prefer full size guns and have no trouble carrying them. I have four Tier 1 holsters and intend to get more for all of my pistols.
Bradley R.
Liked the first one so much I bought another one. Best holster on the market hands down.
Joshua M.
Couldn’t ask for a better product

Only holster I can order for a Glock 30 and it’s perfect!!! I’m ready to order one for my Glock 19. It’s comfortable to wear and secure my firearm and. It worrying about it falling out.
Alex M.
The BEST holster in the game. Very comfortable. Don’t hesitate to buy. This is the Axis Slim for Glock 19
Darin S.
Love the Axis Slim! I’m a huge fan of both Tier 1 Concealed and Warrior Poet Society so this was a must have. Might have to get another one for my G19.
Brian B.
Bought this holster for carry and to try for the Three 7s drill and earn a challenge coin. Now they've stopped the coins. So disappointed!!
Keep the coins going!
William A.
Best AIWB I have ever had! And I have many!
Darin S.
This is a great holster! Picked up the Agis Elite a few months back and I love that holster but the Axis Slim is more comfortable! Great job as always T1C! The WPS/T1C collaboration turned out beautiful!
Axel C.
Great
Rod G.
I’ve been looking for a holster with a extra mag for a while, when I saw these, I thought it was going to be too big and I wouldn’t like it, but after my first time using it, I’m never going to use another holster, this is a GAME CHANGER! Love it!
Rocky K.
I’ve used a lot of holster over the years, Tier one is hands down the best I’ve found.
Joe P.
Sig 365XL small gun but this thing just absolutely disappears on my 6’ 165lbs body, so comfortable I forget it’s there
Brian R.
Love these holsters. The best holsters I have…I have 3. Tier 1 is my go to IWB holster. Highly recommend these holsters
Jorge H. N.
Very comfortable, top quality. I wish I had just purchased from the beginning, spent lots of money trying others but simply Tier 1 is the best, save your money just get the Tier 1.
Barry M.
Got the axis slim as my first holster of this style and honestly I'm quite impressed. I am a bigger fellow and I never thought i would be able to conceal a full sized 1911 so well. It sits comfterbly on me and is overall a 10/10 for me.
Michael J.
Only had it a few days but its light and very comfortable!!! I ordered the red carbon fiber, black back, beautifully done! Will be ordering another one shortly for my Shield Plus.
Brandon R.
Looks great. Fits well. Love the adjustability.
Bernadette G.
Love the ulticlips!!! Can wear just about anything and my holster stays put!!! Very comfortable...

Tier 1's Axis Slim is a complete game changer for conceal carriers looking for a kydex holster that is both comfortable and functional. I had to admit, I was skeptical that a kydex holster can be comfortable regardless of its design features. However, after 6 months of continued use, this holster has exceeded my expectations. In fact, one of the reasons why I waited so long to write a review is because I wanted to do the product justice by giving the holsters the appropriate amount of time for a complete and thorough field test.
PROS: Extremely comfortable, functional, and well made.
CONS: The holster for my Springfield XD Subcompact has a design quirk that adds an inch to the overall length to the holster.
COMFORT (4.5 Stars): For a kydex holster, the Axis Slim is very comfortable to carry, unlike other brands that tend to concentrate the entire bulk of the carry into one specific area, In short, the secret behind to the holster's comfort is the fact that it distributes the weight of the entire rig across a wider area, making appendix carrying extremely comfortable. So instead of having a 5 pounds of gun sitting at one specific spot within your appendix, that weight is spread evenly across your lower body and waistline.
CONCEALMENT: (4.5 Stars): The Axis Slim conceals wonderfully, especially at the 12 o'clock position (my preferred carry position). The holster is slim and and does not add any unnecessary material or bulk. And with the addition of the claw, it really makes my Springfield XD (4" barrel) disappear into my body with zero printing.
DESIGN (3 Stars): The Axis Slim is thoughtful and designed perfectly for appendix carriers. The addition of a spare magazine carrier (attached with a paracord) is a nice touch that further enhances the comfort and design of the holster. However, only issue I have is the design quirk in the holster for my Springfield XD Subcompact. In this case, there is an additional inch in the barrel section that is needed for the holster's stability/retention for that specific gun model.
MATERIAL (4.5 Stars): I have carried these two holsters as my part of my EDC for the past 6 months and used them in my classes that involves having my them getting dragged, smashed, or crushed by my body weight. As of to date, both of my holsters are holding up just fine with very little signs of wear and tear.
FUNCTIONALITY (4.5 Stars): The two holsters I bought functioned as intended. They both provide positive retention and are highly adjustable to your body type and/or concealment needs. It is truly one of those few reliable holsters that truly works and exceeds all expectations.
Star Rating: 4.2 Stars (21 out of 25 Stars)

Got my Axs Slim a few days ago (Glock 19 Gen 3, Black Front/OD Green Back). Been wearing it for a couple of days and finally found the sweet spot with the right wedge placements. Really like the lightweight and sleek design. I used double stick velcro (bought off amazon) to put on the backside of the holster so the wedges could be removed and adjusted with ease. The only constructive feedback I have is the magazine carrier. Specifically on the Axis Slim. I wanted the magazine to have a little more retention but tightening the retentinon screw seemed to not do anything. Maybe because it only has one retention screw on one side of the magazine holster. I reset the screw back to its original position and put a small strip of the soft-sided velcro inside to give it just a little more retention. Did the trick. Other then that I'm very happy with the purchase. Thank you Tier 1.

I've been using Tier1Concealed's appendix line of holsters for several years now and recommend them to anyone who appendix carries. Recently I had one of their older Axis lines fail (crack) and their customer service was beyond compare. I'm not sure what I really expected but I didn't expect to have someone reply same day to my email request and have my replacement in hand within the week at no cost to me. Especially knowing the current wait times and having two other other orders I was patiently waiting on. I can't thank their team enough for the exceptional product and service they provide.
John B.
I wish I would have bought this one first. It would have saved me a lot of time and money. From now on I will buy Tier 1 holsters.

My 2nd T1 holster (2 different pistols). Fits my Walther PPQ nicely. Conceals well. I'm not sure if it is the different gun, or different model holster, but the "Slim" with this Walther PPQ SC prints just a bit more than the Axis Elite with my Shadow Systems MR920 does. I have made several adjustments, but I haven't found that sweet spot yet like the Axis Elite did straight away. Quality is good. Retention feels solid. If you're on the fence between the "Slim" and the "Axis Elite" go with the Axis.
T1C is great, their choice of shipping through DHL is not. Somehow took DHL 2 weeks to deliver from 1 state away, so that was painfully frustrating.
Anthony P.
Love how the color combo came out. Been running it daily and it’s very comfortable. Adding the wedges has helped as well! I will worth the money and wait.
Joe D.
This is the perfect holster for wearing a G42 on a stretch nylon concealment belt when exercising outdoors (walking/jogging/upper body workouts). I hated to spend this much money on a holster having just this one specific purpose, but now that I have it I can say it was worth the expense.
T J.
The best there is as far as I’m concerned when it comes to inside the waistband holsters straight quality.
Kelvin A.
This is my second axis slim. The first I bought for a full size 1911 and this one is for my EDC which is a Sig P320 Xcompact RXP with a Romeo 1 Pro RDS and a TLR-7A. The weapon fits perfect. I made some slight adjustments to the retention strength and ride height which is super easy. Just take a screwdriver and loosen, make your adjustments, check fit, and re-tighten some screws and you're in business. I love that they cut it to fit the optic and flashlight. Super concealable and hands down the best appendix holster I've ever had! If you're considering buying this holster, then stop thinking and just do it! You won't regret it
James R.
Super comfortable
Andrew K.
Far more comfortable than my last holster. Pleasantly surprised. Learning to keep it on me 24/7, and able to finally lose the dorky cover garments
Ernie G.
Axis slim! Perfect fit stays nice and snug to my body and very comfortably with zero printing.
Chris N.
Fantastic! And, until I lose a little more weight, the "slim" model works well for me. Fits my 509 mid-size as well as my 509C perfectly. Could not be happier!
Thomas B.
Awesome holsters. Lots of adjustments and pretty comfortable.
Chris S.
One of the best holsters I ever bought! So comfortable! So practical, and does it’s purpose to its full extent!
Phillip B.
Very well made holster! Conceals well, comfortable, high quality and Tier1 seems to be a legit company. Customer for life.
Ralph M.
The brown holster is the slim my first Tier 1 I wish I would of went with the Elite. It seems as there might be a retention screw missing when I got it there is a hole without a screw like the Elite has. I went with the slim for my Canik because its not big for a sub compact. I probably should've went with the Elite as well. I still like the slim for what I am carrying. I guess I can put a scre in that empty space to get better retention
Matthew M.
Awesome product
William F.
Great concealment, works with athletic shorts, and overall great. Will be purchasing another
Loren B.
Exactly what I expected, based on the reviews from others. Great holster.
Matthew M.
Excellent fit and finish. Exceeded my expectations with its construction and how comfortable it is to wear. Definitely recommend to anyone looking for a holster
Gerald B.
This is my 3rd T1 purchase and I am completely satisfied with every one or them.
Cameron P.
Had to get a better belt but is working fantastic.
Curtis C.
Amazing holsters. Super comfortable.
Jared M.
Awesome holster. Printing is very minimal, stays very tight to my body but still easy to draw with a solid grip. Best holster in my box of holsters. Will buy from again
Richard K.
Awesome Holster!!
Cameron H.
absolutely perfect.
Josh B.
Love every one of the holsters from Tier 1. I wasn’t a big fan of appendix carry until I tried these holsters and now I’ll never go back to 4 o’clock again.

It's worth every penny
Matt T.
Great piece
Jonathan S.
This is the first holster I have ordered from these guys. All I can say is that I wish I had ordered from them sooner. The quality of this holster is outstanding and the comfort factor is awesome. The way it fits the gun with your spare mag is great and the retention is perfect. If your thinking of getting one, do it don’t hesitate.
Dan O.
This is the second T1C holster I've ever purchased. Had the Axis Elite for years and wanted to change my light and optic setup. This holster is super slim and retention points are great. the most comfortable appendix holster I've ever owned. It's not the cheapest price point but worth every penny for a holster you will actually wear everyday and hold the pistol securely as it should. I would highly recommend this product. Spend the money up front instead of buying something cheaper/less comfortable that you won't want to wear after having it for a few days. This holster is built to last and comfort is unbeatable!
Romin J.
I like it. Picasso.
Seriously as close as I’ve ever been to forgetting I was strapped. Added 1.5 inch wedge on the back. Full adjustability, lower the ride height one notch for comfort and printing. I’m 5’6” 165. No print. Super comfortable. Probably will end up with this setup for all my appendix carry-able pistols.
Cristian V.
Easy process
John W.
Been carrying for 40 years. As a UC when I was a cop, before and since. I can’t guess at the number of holsters I’ve owned but this is truly the best I’ve had.
I’m a small man, 5’5”, about 160 lbs but I carry the platform I’ve been on since 1992 a Sig P series. With this holster I hide the full size pistol with spare mag comfortably all day. I’m a decades long appendix carrier and Tier1 has made the best solution for this position I’ve come across. If I ever decide to move to another pistol (doubtful but not impossible) I’ll be buying again.
Semper Fi Tier1, great job.
Curt H.
Super comfortable. Best appendix holster IV ever owned and it have tried them all.
Scott
Great, slim profile. This is actually smaller profile than I thought. This is comfortable to carry and works well to manage the bulk and weight of a full sized 1911 with additional mag. I can wear this with minimal to no printing and it’s more comfortable than any of the other holsters I’ve tried. Love this!!
Greg L.
Easily the best holster I own, well along with my t1 for my 45. It conceals perfectly and with the 43x I barely notice it. The finish on it is perfection. T1’s lead time is 100% worth the wait. I absolutely love this holster and will be picking up another T1 holster for my 17.
Fernando M.
As all my pistols, T1 is the way to go!!! this new design it is more comfortable. the claw take a little bit more of the grip print!! Love it.
Brandon B.
I this is hands down the most comfortable appendix carry holster that I have ever purchased. I used to think that there was no way I could appendix carry even remotely comfortable until I put on my Axis Slim with my Springfield XD Mod 2 3”. Tier1Concealed you have gained a loyal customer!!!
Darrell E.
So far so good, been wearing it for the past few week. This is so much better than a single point clip. my grip purchase is much more consistent. With the mid-sweatshield, feels comfortable to wear empty and with firearm. I would not recommend full sweatshield
Maurice B.
My favorite holster company. Believe it or not, I’ve gotten holsters from other companies and It was a challenge concealing this tiny G26. Absolutely love this holster!!! I’ve lost count how many I have from this company.
Kris C.
This is the second holster I've got from Tier 1 and it's even better than my first. The Axis Slim checks every box on the list and the neon green/hot pink is better looking than I expected. If your here looking for a new holster, you've found it.
Steven D.
Love it
Preston O.
Very very comfortable with my Shield EZ. Very slim and easy to conceal
Kevin S.
Duuuuude... This is my first REAL quality holster , and after all of 5min of having it on, I'm seriously blown the f_€k away lol. The comfort, fitment between my pants and body as well as the actual fitment of the firearm into the holster, overall design features that enhance the usability, the side car for the extra mag, and especially the actual concealment.. It's ALL outstanding. Exceptional job, boys! You just gained a life long T1C user!
Dennis T.
Fantastic Holster!
Will definitely get another for my other carry. Cheers...
Michael S.
This is my 4th Axis Slim. In the case of this last one, I had made a mistake with some specs while ordering. Tier 1 took care of it for me with no fuss and I am super happy with the results. Will be coming back for many more of the company's well designed and superbly made products. Cheers, Mike

Love this new holster! Tier 1 always delivers.

Awesome customer service. Fast response. Very knowledgeable. Holsters fits awesome after tuning it to me and how I like it to sit. Comfortable. Shits bad ass get you one today.
Gregory W.
This was for a Springfield XD9 subcompact. It was the first holster I've had and I'm certainly happy with the look, functionality, and comfort of it. Plenty of options to customize to your preference. Holster fits firearm perfectly and offers good retention without compromising a smooth & fast draw. Wearing the holster is comfortable and T1C has a YouTube video about appendix carry that's helpful too. I chose the Axis Slim because options for mounting lights on the subcompact seemed limited, but would have otherwise picked one of the MSP Pro series holsters.
Todd A.
Perfect fit for a 365XL with the romeo zero red dot... comfortable and high quality. Worth every penny!
Devin B.
Absolutely love the holster. Colors are accurate. The holster was a nice tight fit for the weapon. After I tightened the screw for the magazine it was an amazing fit. The slim model fits very well inside the waistband. The holster came in sooner than I expected. Really satisfied.
Aaron J.
I am very pleased with my purchase. It looks good, and functions as advertised. I am comfortable wearing this for every day carry.
Jordan H.
I've always wanted to try appendix carry because of concealability and much easier to draw. It truly comes down to having the right holster for the job, and this holster is it! The way this holster sits and distributes the weight makes it a pleasure to wear. I carry with this holster all the time now, and I'm amazed that even in shorts and t shirt, you would have no idea I was carrying. The claw pushes the grip of my pistol into my body. I like it so much, I am having another holster made for my 365xl now too. Would deffinetely recommend if your on the fence about trying appendix carry or looking for a new holster.
Rob I.
I love it
Randell J.
I couldn’t be more happy with the quality of this holster! Initially I was worried that it wouldn’t be super comfortable because I’ve had kydex holsters in the past, and I’m happy to report that I was wrong! This is THE most comfortable holster I’ve ever owned! I will definitely be showing off this holster and telling everyone about your company! Oh, and the customer service is ALSO amazing, very impressive. Thanks guys!
Joseph D.
Great Holster! I have several. Fantastic customer service and quality. keep up the great work!
Elton W.
I can think of nothing negative to say about this holster. The holster seems well built and stays where I.put it, draw after draw. It delivers on every promise given in the description. I have tried appendix carry with some other holsters but never took any of them outside of the house. My Hellcat conceals so well, I bought a second holster for my CZ P10S. I don't think you can go wrong giving Tier 1 a try.
Stephen L.
So this is a interesting holster. Not going to lie it's a lot to shove in your pants. I am currently still getting used to it. I do like it and I am getting better at taking it off and on. I added a wedge and it has helped. If I can suggest anything it would be a padded sweat guard that other companies make. I am going to add that and I think this will be a solid choice for appendix carry.
Vincent T.
I can conceal a full size pistol with a light, optic, magwell, and extended mag. Pretty happy with it.

My 2nd T1 holster (2 different pistols). Fits my Walther PPQ nicely. Conceals well. I'm not sure if it is the different gun, or different model holster, but the "Slim" with this Walther PPQ SC prints just a bit more than the Axis Elite with my Shadow Systems MR920 does. I have made several adjustments, but I haven't found that sweet spot yet like the Axis Elite did straight away. Quality is good. Retention feels solid. If you're on the fence between the "Slim" and the "Axis Elite" go with the Axis.
T1C is great, their choice of shipping through DHL is not. Somehow took DHL 2 weeks to deliver from 1 state away, so that was painfully frustrating.

Love how the color combo came out. Been running it daily and it’s very comfortable. Adding the wedges has helped as well! I will worth the money and wait.

This is the perfect holster for wearing a G42 on a stretch nylon concealment belt when exercising outdoors (walking/jogging/upper body workouts). I hated to spend this much money on a holster having just this one specific purpose, but now that I have it I can say it was worth the expense.

The best there is as far as I’m concerned when it comes to inside the waistband holsters straight quality.

This is my second axis slim. The first I bought for a full size 1911 and this one is for my EDC which is a Sig P320 Xcompact RXP with a Romeo 1 Pro RDS and a TLR-7A. The weapon fits perfect. I made some slight adjustments to the retention strength and ride height which is super easy. Just take a screwdriver and loosen, make your adjustments, check fit, and re-tighten some screws and you're in business. I love that they cut it to fit the optic and flashlight. Super concealable and hands down the best appendix holster I've ever had! If you're considering buying this holster, then stop thinking and just do it! You won't regret it
James R.
Super comfortable
Andrew K.
Far more comfortable than my last holster. Pleasantly surprised. Learning to keep it on me 24/7, and able to finally lose the dorky cover garments
Ernie G.
Axis slim! Perfect fit stays nice and snug to my body and very comfortably with zero printing.
Chris N.
Fantastic! And, until I lose a little more weight, the "slim" model works well for me. Fits my 509 mid-size as well as my 509C perfectly. Could not be happier!
Thomas B.
Awesome holsters. Lots of adjustments and pretty comfortable.
Chris S.
One of the best holsters I ever bought! So comfortable! So practical, and does it’s purpose to its full extent!
Phillip B.
Very well made holster! Conceals well, comfortable, high quality and Tier1 seems to be a legit company. Customer for life.
Ralph M.
The brown holster is the slim my first Tier 1 I wish I would of went with the Elite. It seems as there might be a retention screw missing when I got it there is a hole without a screw like the Elite has. I went with the slim for my Canik because its not big for a sub compact. I probably should've went with the Elite as well. I still like the slim for what I am carrying. I guess I can put a scre in that empty space to get better retention
Matthew M.
Awesome product
William F.
Great concealment, works with athletic shorts, and overall great. Will be purchasing another
Loren B.
Exactly what I expected, based on the reviews from others. Great holster.
Matthew M.
Excellent fit and finish. Exceeded my expectations with its construction and how comfortable it is to wear. Definitely recommend to anyone looking for a holster
Gerald B.
This is my 3rd T1 purchase and I am completely satisfied with every one or them.
Cameron P.
Had to get a better belt but is working fantastic.
Curtis C.
Amazing holsters. Super comfortable.
Jared M.
Awesome holster. Printing is very minimal, stays very tight to my body but still easy to draw with a solid grip. Best holster in my box of holsters. Will buy from again
Richard K.
Awesome Holster!!
Cameron H.
absolutely perfect.
Josh B.
Love every one of the holsters from Tier 1. I wasn’t a big fan of appendix carry until I tried these holsters and now I’ll never go back to 4 o’clock again.
sanjay h.
It's worth every penny
Matt T.
Great piece
Jonathan S.
This is the first holster I have ordered from these guys. All I can say is that I wish I had ordered from them sooner. The quality of this holster is outstanding and the comfort factor is awesome. The way it fits the gun with your spare mag is great and the retention is perfect. If your thinking of getting one, do it don’t hesitate.
Dan O.
This is the second T1C holster I've ever purchased. Had the Axis Elite for years and wanted to change my light and optic setup. This holster is super slim and retention points are great. the most comfortable appendix holster I've ever owned. It's not the cheapest price point but worth every penny for a holster you will actually wear everyday and hold the pistol securely as it should. I would highly recommend this product. Spend the money up front instead of buying something cheaper/less comfortable that you won't want to wear after having it for a few days. This holster is built to last and comfort is unbeatable!
Romin J.
I like it. Picasso.
Seriously as close as I’ve ever been to forgetting I was strapped. Added 1.5 inch wedge on the back. Full adjustability, lower the ride height one notch for comfort and printing. I’m 5’6” 165. No print. Super comfortable. Probably will end up with this setup for all my appendix carry-able pistols.

Easy process

Been carrying for 40 years. As a UC when I was a cop, before and since. I can’t guess at the number of holsters I’ve owned but this is truly the best I’ve had.
I’m a small man, 5’5”, about 160 lbs but I carry the platform I’ve been on since 1992 a Sig P series. With this holster I hide the full size pistol with spare mag comfortably all day. I’m a decades long appendix carrier and Tier1 has made the best solution for this position I’ve come across. If I ever decide to move to another pistol (doubtful but not impossible) I’ll be buying again.
Semper Fi Tier1, great job.
Curt H.
Super comfortable. Best appendix holster IV ever owned and it have tried them all.
Scott
Great, slim profile. This is actually smaller profile than I thought. This is comfortable to carry and works well to manage the bulk and weight of a full sized 1911 with additional mag. I can wear this with minimal to no printing and it’s more comfortable than any of the other holsters I’ve tried. Love this!!
Greg L.
Easily the best holster I own, well along with my t1 for my 45. It conceals perfectly and with the 43x I barely notice it. The finish on it is perfection. T1’s lead time is 100% worth the wait. I absolutely love this holster and will be picking up another T1 holster for my 17.
Fernando M.
As all my pistols, T1 is the way to go!!! this new design it is more comfortable. the claw take a little bit more of the grip print!! Love it.
Brandon B.
I this is hands down the most comfortable appendix carry holster that I have ever purchased. I used to think that there was no way I could appendix carry even remotely comfortable until I put on my Axis Slim with my Springfield XD Mod 2 3”. Tier1Concealed you have gained a loyal customer!!!
Darrell E.
So far so good, been wearing it for the past few week. This is so much better than a single point clip. my grip purchase is much more consistent. With the mid-sweatshield, feels comfortable to wear empty and with firearm. I would not recommend full sweatshield
Maurice B.
My favorite holster company. Believe it or not, I’ve gotten holsters from other companies and It was a challenge concealing this tiny G26. Absolutely love this holster!!! I’ve lost count how many I have from this company.
Kris C.
This is the second holster I've got from Tier 1 and it's even better than my first. The Axis Slim checks every box on the list and the neon green/hot pink is better looking than I expected. If your here looking for a new holster, you've found it.
Steven D.
Love it
Preston O.
Very very comfortable with my Shield EZ. Very slim and easy to conceal
Kevin S.
Duuuuude... This is my first REAL quality holster , and after all of 5min of having it on, I'm seriously blown the f_€k away lol. The comfort, fitment between my pants and body as well as the actual fitment of the firearm into the holster, overall design features that enhance the usability, the side car for the extra mag, and especially the actual concealment.. It's ALL outstanding. Exceptional job, boys! You just gained a life long T1C user!
Dennis T.
Fantastic Holster!
Will definitely get another for my other carry. Cheers...
Michael S.
This is my 4th Axis Slim. In the case of this last one, I had made a mistake with some specs while ordering. Tier 1 took care of it for me with no fuss and I am super happy with the results. Will be coming back for many more of the company's well designed and superbly made products. Cheers, Mike
Customer
Love this new holster! Tier 1 always delivers.
Nicholas S.
Comfortable to wear and easy to adjust.
jorge h.
I have tried many holster on my P365 XL but none gave me the concealment I found with Tier 1. Highly recommended
Thomas M.
Fits perfect, very comfortable.
Wilmer A.
Awesome customer service. Fast response. Very knowledgeable. Holsters fits awesome after tuning it to me and how I like it to sit. Comfortable. Shits bad ass get you one today.
Gregory W.
This was for a Springfield XD9 subcompact. It was the first holster I've had and I'm certainly happy with the look, functionality, and comfort of it. Plenty of options to customize to your preference. Holster fits firearm perfectly and offers good retention without compromising a smooth & fast draw. Wearing the holster is comfortable and T1C has a YouTube video about appendix carry that's helpful too. I chose the Axis Slim because options for mounting lights on the subcompact seemed limited, but would have otherwise picked one of the MSP Pro series holsters.
Todd A.
Perfect fit for a 365XL with the romeo zero red dot... comfortable and high quality. Worth every penny!
Devin B.
Absolutely love the holster. Colors are accurate. The holster was a nice tight fit for the weapon. After I tightened the screw for the magazine it was an amazing fit. The slim model fits very well inside the waistband. The holster came in sooner than I expected. Really satisfied.
Aaron J.
I am very pleased with my purchase. It looks good, and functions as advertised. I am comfortable wearing this for every day carry.
Jordan H.
I've always wanted to try appendix carry because of concealability and much easier to draw. It truly comes down to having the right holster for the job, and this holster is it! The way this holster sits and distributes the weight makes it a pleasure to wear. I carry with this holster all the time now, and I'm amazed that even in shorts and t shirt, you would have no idea I was carrying. The claw pushes the grip of my pistol into my body. I like it so much, I am having another holster made for my 365xl now too. Would deffinetely recommend if your on the fence about trying appendix carry or looking for a new holster.
Rob I.
I love it
Randell J.
I couldn’t be more happy with the quality of this holster! Initially I was worried that it wouldn’t be super comfortable because I’ve had kydex holsters in the past, and I’m happy to report that I was wrong! This is THE most comfortable holster I’ve ever owned! I will definitely be showing off this holster and telling everyone about your company! Oh, and the customer service is ALSO amazing, very impressive. Thanks guys!
Joseph D.
Great Holster! I have several. Fantastic customer service and quality. keep up the great work!
Elton W.
I can think of nothing negative to say about this holster. The holster seems well built and stays where I.put it, draw after draw. It delivers on every promise given in the description. I have tried appendix carry with some other holsters but never took any of them outside of the house. My Hellcat conceals so well, I bought a second holster for my CZ P10S. I don't think you can go wrong giving Tier 1 a try.
Stephen L.
So this is a interesting holster. Not going to lie it's a lot to shove in your pants. I am currently still getting used to it. I do like it and I am getting better at taking it off and on. I added a wedge and it has helped. If I can suggest anything it would be a padded sweat guard that other companies make. I am going to add that and I think this will be a solid choice for appendix carry.
Vincent T.
I can conceal a full size pistol with a light, optic, magwell, and extended mag. Pretty happy with it.
You are looking at our AXIS SLIM holster! Specially designed for appendix carry, this new design stays true to the flexibility of the original AGIS, with a different twist. The AXIS SLIM 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.
