Long time user of Tier1. Very happy with IWB holster I’ve been wearing for years, this one has the same great fit, finish and comfort I have become accustomed to.
Alexander O.
Great holster
Micah D.
Fourth one perfect everytime. Most comfortable holsters I've ever owned
Michael B.
This is my first appendix carry holster and man am I glad I pulled the trigger on it this thing is so comfortable even for a guy who has a dad bod
Eric V.
The absolute best experience from start to the product in my waistband. This was by far the best IWB holster I have ever owned. I was a little hesitate on the price tag, but man am I absolutely happy with the product. The colors were exactly what I pictured, the fitment of my firearm and spare mag was beyond perfect. The concealment is on point. I'm not a big guy, athletic build 6' 170ish pounds. You'd never know what I'm concealing unless you know it's there. I've worn it driving, sitting at a restaurant, walking around in very public places and you don't even know it's there. Worth every cent. The shirt is well made and well fitted, pairs great with the holster. If you're on the fence, buy it, you WILL NOT regret it. Thanks Tier1!!
Ps: they sent some awesome free stuff as well. A Tier1 backpack and some really awesome decals.

Tier 1 is my go-to for edc holsters and this is my third one from them. With everything I liked about the previous two (Axis Elite & Xiphos V2), the Axis Slim was perfect for my CZ P01. I paired it with a Streamlight TLR 7 HLX, knowing that I would have to do a little mod to open up the area for the extended light bezzle. After a little Dremel and heat gun action, she slips in so smoothly now that it's as if it was made that way. I'm always satisfied with my Tier 1 gear.

Most comfortable holster for appendix carry that I have own.
Ian G.
Great holster paired with the wedges and thread lock to make sure no pieces get lost
David M.
This is my second holster from Tier1. The first holster, the Xiphos V2, isn’t a good fit for me. I tried everything to conceal the gun, but nothing worked. Additionally, the Xiphos V2 is not comfortable. So, the pistol the Xiphos was molded for sat in my gun cabinet for a few years before I could buy a replacement. I have admired the sidecar holster design since it was introduced to the market. So, I bought Axis Slim with hopes it would be a better fit for me. Now that I have it and have been wearing it daily with my Beretta APX Compact I must say…. This is a comfortable and well made holster. It definitely was a worthwhile purchase.
Carlton T.
First time ordering a tier 1 holster. It definitely lived up to the hype. Will be back for more.
Diego K.
This holster is fantastic. I personally removed the magazine holder for more comfort and concealment. This is my first holster for carrying. It took a few days to get used to it, but now it feels natural. Overall great product!
Steven W.
Very comfortable, easy to take out and reinstall. So far one of the best holster I bought.
Michael B.
Finally pulled the “trigger” and bought this beautiful work of art, for being a guy that has a 5 star dad bod.. it’s perfect so comfortable I haven’t been able to sit while carrying with this slim I’ve been able to drive for hours and it’s so comfortable!
Eric V.
Front start to finish. The whole process was absolutely great. Fully customizable, made to order. Placed my order on the 5th of October received my holster the 18th of October. No complaints. Best holster ever. Worth every penny. Colors are exactly what I pictured. Super comfortable, made well, feels solid. We'll done Tier 1. Will be ordering another soon.
Dalton M.
Best holster I've ever had. Period
Keith W.
Amazing product
Christopher M.
Love this holster and the other 4 tier1 concealed holsters I own nothing but the best these holsters are amazing.
John R.
Just as advertised. Very comfortable for belly carry with little to no printing
GIOVANNI R.
I absolutely love my T1 concealed holster. I wear it everyday after I get off from work. I’m a customer for life.
Ronald W.
In my opinion these are second to none. Best appendix holster made.
Chris J.
Holster is excellent and what I expected. This makes the 3rd holster. The slim is perfect size for a mp shield
Kyle T.
This is my 6th T1 holster with one more on the way for my Nighthawks. Had to slightly modify the edge for the magazine attachment, the bottom corner was digging in my groin. Great product!!
Luis E.
Great holster.
Yunier V.
Excellent
Hommy S.
Great Holster
Antonio D.
The holster has a nice audible click, solid retention and the material its made of is premium!!! 10/10 holster love it!
Matthew L.
Quality built holster! Happy with my purchase!
Mike H.
Axis slim because axis elite wasn’t available for my configuration.
HK VP9 standard with Streamlight TLR-7X.
Went with recon haze front kydex… it sort of matches the bronze gun slide. No mag extension. XL wide wedge was too big, will need to shave it down and add Velcro to it so I can remove it from the holster as needed. Using three spacers on the claw. I like the discreet carry clips, they are definitely tough and strong, lending to a bit of belt scratching, not a big deal. Will see how it works with a dress shirt this week. Some printing issues but not bad. Took around 20 days from order to delivery.
Ryan D.
I was very pleased with the order process as well as how quickly it arrived. I carry a 5" 1911 appendix every day and you could never tell. The comfort and accessibility of the firearm is perfect. My next holster will definitely be another tier 1 product.
Joseph F.
was worried to find my first CCW holster for here in NJ. I can def say this was the right choice so. comfortable!
ERIK U.
Amazing rig, thee best for my glock 30sf 45acp. I can wear this comfortably while driving. I'm 5'10 210lbs. Lil dad bod going on, but not totally flat belly. And still feels good, while walking, driving, and bending down.
Tyler E.
I bought an Axis in 2022 I’ll just say that this is the best holster I’ve ever worn. I have had multiple other holsters from different companies and, while they performed as intended, the Axis goes above and beyond. The fit and finish is amazing and ability for the holster to flex in the middle makes it amazingly comfortable.
I carry practically everyday and had just recently noticed a crack where the trigger guard was. I sent an email over to Tier 1 and within 10 minutes received a reply stating they would replace the holster. I have never had customer service that quick.
This holster and Tier 1 Concealed will meet and exceed any expectations you have. You won’t find quality like this in many other companies out there.
Daniel P.
Not only an owner of the Axis Elite but now an owner of the Axis Slim and like it just as much as the Elite. If your firearm is not in the Elite line-up don’t be hesitant to check the Axis Slim with more firearms on the list. Awesome quality and awesome customer service every time.
Jason H.
Being on the fluffy side at 5'10 285lbs i love this holster so much im getting ready to order my 3rd one. Just wish they would put out discount codes.
Alexis P.
I bought this as my first holster , to not go through buying tons of holsters and just decided to spend the money, and I couldn’t be happier , especially for being a big guy with a gut ? This helps conceal my weapon and still be comfy, “ you get what you pay for “ right and it was well worth it
Chris R.
WOW! Just wow! I have been concealing a firearm off and on for nearly 2 decades. Last year I finally decided to upgrade my cheap IWB cloth holster. I did a bunch of research and it’s like there are two diehard groups. Leather and Kydex. Both groups swear by their choice and end their reviews with, “well, it’s ultimately up to the person wearing the holster on whether leather (or Kydex) is right for you.” It seems like you just can’t get a straight answer. After a bunch of research I finally decided on a Lock Leather holster by Urban Carry. Great holster, and a HUGE improvement from the cloth IWB I was using for years. I could actually remove and reholster with little to issues. After wearing it daily for the last 4 months, I grew to have a love hate relationship with the Lock Leather holster. It was comfortable, sort of, and the single clip was in the exact wrong place. In the center where it was most comfortably placed, the clip often has to clasp over the button on my pants or shorts. That means I had to wear it to the right of the center. Then the bottom of the leather holster would dig into my right thigh as I walked. The clip was unadjustable and caused the holster to sit low on my waist line which made the firearm hard to grab firmly or consistently. Making the purchase difficult. I was able to work around it under controlled conditions, but under stress drills the purchase was inconsistent at best. When I sat down, I always had to adjust the holster to be somewhat comfortable. Why am I reviewing a product that Tier 1 doesn’t even sale. Because I want to make it absolutely clear that, from the moment I put my new Tier 1 Concealed Axis Slim on it was a night and day difference. It is not even close. There was no acclimation period. It just felt right! The comfort out of the box is AMAZING!!! The two clips straddle my pant button and belt buckle perfectly. The ride height is great, and even if it wasn’t, it’s adjustable. Currently it rides slightly higher than the Lock Leather holster, so the purchase is effortless, firm and consistent. If you are trying to decide on a holster, feel absolutely confident that the Tier 1 holsters are nothing short of amazing. You will not be disappointed. They are much more expensive, but when tenths of a second matter, how much is your life worth! Great company, customer service and product!
Tawsen D.
Very comfortable and durable have other brands of the side cars and love this one the most!
Armando V.
Love the colors on it. It go's with the gun really good.
Khristopher S.
By far the best holster I have found for my Beretta APX full size. This this holster gives me the comfortability while bending over and sitting, which as we all know is always an issue.
Ryan M.
Super comfortable and perfect fit. Love everything about it. Thank you!
Andrew B.
Very comfortable love it!
Daniel P.
Yet another amazing holster from Tier 1 concealed. This attached to the Nexbelt has gave my confidence and comfort to carry everyday for 12-13 hours.
Eli Z.
By far the most comfortable holster! I’m a tow truck driver and I’m able to do my job without any issues!
Gregg K.
I own an AIWB holster from several big holster makes. Tier 1 absolutely makes the most comfortable holster out there. I have no issues at all carrying around an HK VP9L and a spare 20-round mag. The Axis Slim does a fantastic job concealing a full-size gun.
Sam F.
I carried my steel frame CZ P01 (99041) with an AIWB holster from another well-known brand (without a mag pouch, without a light). It printed on any cover I tried.
When I found out about Tier1, initially I was reluctant since the price is about 2x of my previous holster. Long story short I decided to go with the Axis Slim and add a TLR7 option. My holster arrived in <3 weeks. I can't be happier with this purchased. Yes it's expensive AF after adding the wedge pack and the discreet clip set. But it's worth every penny! Pics attached with my fav Team USA hoodies. It still conceals very well with my L siE jersey and summer T shirt. What more can I ask? Thanks so much Tier1 team..I told my friends and 6 of them decided to give Tier1 a try for their EDC.
Jerson B.
I absolutely love this holster, I carry appendix and it’s super comfortable. I just started carrying concealed and my concern was that it would be uncomfortable and which ever holster I chose would not conceal very well. This holster takes care of both with ease! Definitely buying a second one soon.
Mitchell R.
Best customization options of many brands. Comfortable to wear and barely notice it's there. I have started carrying more, this holster just makes it easier. Got it on sale, but it's definitely worth the money.
Carlson C.
Holster is light, comfortable, and sturdy. Will be purchasing another.
Eli Z.
Got this for my G2C! Fits perfectly! Came in yesterday didn’t know how the snow was going to affect delivery but it arrived on time! Love it! Very comfortable! I’m a Tow Truck Driver so being being able to bend and move around while carrying is important and this definitely does that!
Joseph N.
I bought it for my P229 as this was the main option available. I can't wait till the Aegis line becomes a option for the p229. So far with daily use and hundreds of dryfire drills its holding up and giving me the exact quality and durability I've come to expect from Tier1. I'm 6ft 1inch at 145 lbs. I'm tall and lanky. But this holster with a small wedge and I'm carrying a P229 Legion with a red dot and a 17rd back up with virtually no printing. I don't have to wear overly baggy shirts either just my normal large band tees or button ups. Can't wait till my Spara arrives this week, once again Top Tier quality from Tier1 keep up the good work guys!
Joel W.
It does its job well. I dont have any tactical girth so appendix carry is not really for me. Not with my current glock anyways.
For walking around though, it carries well.
Angel M.
The only holster I can trust. Only wish they accommodate my SRO’s without modification. The SRO bottoms out before the pistols seat.
Eric V.
I have to say, the holster is an excellent conceallable holster with quick access in retrieving my firearm. I would definitely recommend it to other people. Excellent product!!!
Thomas M.
It’s an excellent product!!
Jon Ross V.
You already know it’s Tier1 all day everyday!! Like they all say.. buy once cry later! But that’s a myth cause I’ll be crying always since I need a holster for every pew pew I have!
Shannon O.
The best thing I ever did was find Tier1 Concealed! As a long time Conceal/Carrier here in MN and an Instructor I like many have the pile of junk holsters. When I started carrying there were very few if any choices! I found the best and they are the only holster co I will ever use! People think appendix carry is uncomfortable but not with Tier1! I drove 18 hours to TX and 18 hours back for training. I never once wanted or needed to remove this holster the whole time. That's a true testimony to their holsters!!!!!!
Jeremiah F.
Best feeling appendix holster I’ve used. I tried 4 companies who offers the configuration and nothing compares. tier1’s comfort, functionality and style is unmatched. Price point is worth it because it’s the only holster you’ll ever use.
Nicholas P.
This was my first rig ever so I dont have much experience in this game. What I can tell you is I carry a CZP01 with a 7TLRA and it’s extremely comfortable. This company had focused on quality and comfortably. I was so happy with this holster that I went ahead and ordered a msp.
Tom T.
I'm 5'6" and 155...not a big guy... I heard a lot of good things about Tier 1 from a buddy of mine and finally got an Axis Slim w/ spare mag carrier for a VP9 w/ TLR-1. Surprisingly, it fits really well and allows me to carry a full size and conceal better than the 365 I used to carry. Great quality, fit and adjustability. I'm sure I'll be going back for more from the folks there at Tier 1. Pricey, but as frugal as I am, in my eyes, the cost is worth it to me.
1 suggestion: The edges on the kydex against my body are relatively sharp and scrape against my stomach. I'll need to shave those areas down. At this price, I would expect the finish quality to be better. (This is the only reason I gave 4 stars...if this were squared away, I'd have given 5 stars for sure.)
1 request: More availability of light configurations would be much appreciated. I was really wanting an axis elite, but the pistol/light config wasn't available.
Vincent P.
As always Tier One is the best. Great holster, Great product and great service. A+
GAYLE H.
Absolutely love it!!!!!
Michael G.
This thing is badass, super comfortable. Will be buying another when the time comes!
Michael E.
Incredible fit and finish. Conceals incredibly well especially with the ulti clip 3.
WIlliam D.
Buy once, cry once. Accept no substitutes!
Ryan S.
Can’t recommend this holster enough (or any holster by Tier 1). This is my 3rd one and they always stay consistent on quality, modularity and comfort. Long live Tier 1 Concealed!
James L.
I ordered my first holster and immediately fell in love. I ordered another and then another and they are great appendix carry holsters. I use to carry OWB for many years but now I can't stop carrying appendix. So nice!!!!
Juan L.
This is my second holster from T1C and again what a great product. If anyone is ever looking for a quality holster and you’re looking on this website then just choose your gun make and model cause you’re at the right place already. Thanks again T1C for an other great product, look forward to getting a third. Great job. Keep up the fantastic work!
Randall H.
Love it. Fits and works great.
Mason T.
Ladies and gentlemen, this is the absolute best piece of kydex I’ve ever had the pleasure of putting in my pants. You can spend a fortune in budget or lower cost holsters only to find that they’re terrible. Let’s be honest. We all love R&D. But Instead of buying and trialing uncomfortable bull**** for months, you could get one of these bad boys. These guys have already done all the R&D for us. If you’re looking for nothing but the best, this is it. Thanks guys! Stay frosty.
Don J.
Very nice product
Works great for my needs. Impossible to see. Great conseable holster
Samuel B.
I’ve been using random holsters on Amazon for a while. I’ll never go back. It’s makes the biggest difference having a quality holster and I’m happy I made the switch. Customer for life!
MANUEL Z.
Fits like a glove. Thank you so much for helping me out. Your customer service is awesome.
Geoff M.
Glock 26 with TLR6 and G18 mag.
Ver comfortable with a wedge.
I am slim, 160 lbs, and 5'10.
I also have an axis elite, so far I prefer the slim.
Great customer service. I will be a customer for life.
Thank you Tier 1
Tanner W.
The corners at the bottom tend to dig into my legs if it isn’t worn exactly perfect, and even then it digs in sometimes, otherwise it prints significantly less than any other holster I’ve used.
Marcus C.
Solid holster. No issues with it at all and is great with the Alias system.
Brooks W.
This is the most comfortable holster I have used amd the clips are far better than some of the other brands I have. My one and only complaint is the chord on the back side itches me. I totally recommend this holster and hope they make one for my other firearm at some point.
Aaron C.
A millions great things could and should be said …
10/10 comfort
10/10 quality
10/10 would recommend to everyone
James W.
Got one for my CZ P-09 and it's perfect. The retention keeps the pistol locked in no matter how much I move throughout the day and the holster never shifts in place. I highly recommend this to anyone looking for a good AIWB holster!
Geoffrey A.
Most comfortable holster I’ve carried. I’ve tried quite a few different holsters. Was hesitant to spend the money on this one. But So glad I did. The comfort is unmatched. The retention is amazing. The fit is just as good as it gets. I run the 43x with the tlr7 light. And it fits PERFECT. Order to fit the factory Glock mags but the s15 is a perfect fit as well. 10 out 10 would recommend.
Louis M.
I made a mistake ordering my holster. TC1 helped me when I ordered the correct holster. They didn’t have to but they did. What else do I need to say other than THANK YOU
Don J.
This holster is like all of the holsters I have purchased....A++++
Dante G.
For my first holster I definitely spoiled myself! I hear a lot of complaints about concealed carry holsters, honestly I have no complaints! It's very comfortable for how big it is!
Bryce
First off, I would like to say how much I love my holster. The Axis Elite Slim is by far one of the most ergonomic and comfortable holsters I have ever worn. I used to question whether or not to conceal carry, but now I carry consistently with comfort and confidence.
Tier1 also has top tier customer service, they were quick to receive my request and offer a solution. I am overly impressed with the lengths they will go for their customers.
If you're looking for a superb holster with a company who actually cares, Tier1 is the one for you. I know they'll be who I will continue to get my holsters from.
Joshua S.
Great holster, I love the adjustment, and the ulti-clips allow me to carry with a tucked in shirt.
Ashley K.
Love the holster, can tell the kydex is extremely high quality, my only issue is I wish I knew that getting one side of the premium camo means the other one would be free, because then I would’ve done that. Other than that the holster is perfect! Went with this model because I thought the T1 branding on the main holster was weird, but this one is just as amazing! My gf has the main holster and I can say they are both high quality.
Mike C.
I got my California CCW in February. I had another holster but it was far from comfortable. I bought this one and it changed the game. I’m 6’1 240 and this is a perfect fit for me. Great product!
Esteban S.
Very comfortable even if you have a little bit of stomach, highly recommended with a wedge. Does feel heavy at first but you get used to it
Ryan H.
This is my second Tier1 appendix holster and I have only great things to say about both. Customer service is also top notch. Thank you!!
Bruce K.
I have multiple Tier 1 Holsters and am super stoked on all of them. Super comfortable and easy to move and wear. Always my go to for any new purchase.
Thanks,
Bruce
Daniel M.
This is my second one this style from you. The mag is a bit to high in this one. But still better then a few others. Thanks as I do like them and probably will be back for sure
Geraldo P.
Very satisfied! That is my 3rd one from Tier1.
jake f.
Got it for my glock 19mos with streamlight tlr7-A and it’s been the most comfortable holster i’ve ever worn. I carry my gun day in and day out, sometimes for 8-10 hours a day and it never gets in the way
John P.
Outstanding holster. I can’t explain why, but the width and ergonomics of the axis slim just work and conceal better than any other holster in this class that I have tried. I have one of these for my g43 and g19 and just switched from a T-Rex side car to this for my current EDC (sig p365xl) and it makes it so much easier and more comfortable to carry.
Benjamin E A.
Beretta 92 FS(full size). Fits comfortably.
John F.
More comfortable than my previous holster. I like the way it looks and love the comfort.
michael c.
Excellent conceilability. Glock 48 doesn't show with the lightest of cover garment. Well made,and comfortable.
Keaton H.
This holster is extremely comfortable!! However, I did make a change after I ordered to the Axis Elite, so this review is actually for the Elite modle not the Slim. I'm sure the Slim is just as reliable and comfortable fitting for those who choose to go that route... which brings me to another point. The customer service is amazing. I sent an email asking to make the switch the type of holster I wanted and they were prompt with responses and made sure I was completely satisfied with the changes. The holster took a bit to arrive, but man was it worth the wait. Since getting mine I have recommended them to my range buddies and anyone else looking for a good holster. You cannot go wrong with Tier1.
Side note: I would highly recommend upgrading to the ULTI clips!
michael m.
Wish I had bought this sooner. So much better than my old holster
Casey C.
Couldn't be happier with the comfort of this holster. It is far less bothersome than some much smaller holsters I've used in the past.
John K.
Absolutely fantastic experience start to finish. I called the customer service line for a few helpful tips, which they happily answered. Ordered my holster, and waited patiently until its arrival. It’s exactly what I wanted, and I couldn’t be any happier. Also ordered the Kore belt and some foam pads, a must in this guy’s opinion. My first T1C holster, but won’t be my last!

Axis slim because axis elite wasn’t available for my configuration.
HK VP9 standard with Streamlight TLR-7X.
Went with recon haze front kydex… it sort of matches the bronze gun slide. No mag extension. XL wide wedge was too big, will need to shave it down and add Velcro to it so I can remove it from the holster as needed. Using three spacers on the claw. I like the discreet carry clips, they are definitely tough and strong, lending to a bit of belt scratching, not a big deal. Will see how it works with a dress shirt this week. Some printing issues but not bad. Took around 20 days from order to delivery.

Being on the fluffy side at 5'10 285lbs i love this holster so much im getting ready to order my 3rd one. Just wish they would put out discount codes.

I bought this as my first holster , to not go through buying tons of holsters and just decided to spend the money, and I couldn’t be happier , especially for being a big guy with a gut ? This helps conceal my weapon and still be comfy, “ you get what you pay for “ right and it was well worth it

WOW! Just wow! I have been concealing a firearm off and on for nearly 2 decades. Last year I finally decided to upgrade my cheap IWB cloth holster. I did a bunch of research and it’s like there are two diehard groups. Leather and Kydex. Both groups swear by their choice and end their reviews with, “well, it’s ultimately up to the person wearing the holster on whether leather (or Kydex) is right for you.” It seems like you just can’t get a straight answer. After a bunch of research I finally decided on a Lock Leather holster by Urban Carry. Great holster, and a HUGE improvement from the cloth IWB I was using for years. I could actually remove and reholster with little to issues. After wearing it daily for the last 4 months, I grew to have a love hate relationship with the Lock Leather holster. It was comfortable, sort of, and the single clip was in the exact wrong place. In the center where it was most comfortably placed, the clip often has to clasp over the button on my pants or shorts. That means I had to wear it to the right of the center. Then the bottom of the leather holster would dig into my right thigh as I walked. The clip was unadjustable and caused the holster to sit low on my waist line which made the firearm hard to grab firmly or consistently. Making the purchase difficult. I was able to work around it under controlled conditions, but under stress drills the purchase was inconsistent at best. When I sat down, I always had to adjust the holster to be somewhat comfortable. Why am I reviewing a product that Tier 1 doesn’t even sale. Because I want to make it absolutely clear that, from the moment I put my new Tier 1 Concealed Axis Slim on it was a night and day difference. It is not even close. There was no acclimation period. It just felt right! The comfort out of the box is AMAZING!!! The two clips straddle my pant button and belt buckle perfectly. The ride height is great, and even if it wasn’t, it’s adjustable. Currently it rides slightly higher than the Lock Leather holster, so the purchase is effortless, firm and consistent. If you are trying to decide on a holster, feel absolutely confident that the Tier 1 holsters are nothing short of amazing. You will not be disappointed. They are much more expensive, but when tenths of a second matter, how much is your life worth! Great company, customer service and product!
Tawsen D.
Very comfortable and durable have other brands of the side cars and love this one the most!
Armando V.
Love the colors on it. It go's with the gun really good.
Khristopher S.
By far the best holster I have found for my Beretta APX full size. This this holster gives me the comfortability while bending over and sitting, which as we all know is always an issue.
Ryan M.
Super comfortable and perfect fit. Love everything about it. Thank you!
Andrew B.
Very comfortable love it!
Daniel P.
Yet another amazing holster from Tier 1 concealed. This attached to the Nexbelt has gave my confidence and comfort to carry everyday for 12-13 hours.
Eli Z.
By far the most comfortable holster! I’m a tow truck driver and I’m able to do my job without any issues!
Gregg K.
I own an AIWB holster from several big holster makes. Tier 1 absolutely makes the most comfortable holster out there. I have no issues at all carrying around an HK VP9L and a spare 20-round mag. The Axis Slim does a fantastic job concealing a full-size gun.
Sam F.
I carried my steel frame CZ P01 (99041) with an AIWB holster from another well-known brand (without a mag pouch, without a light). It printed on any cover I tried.
When I found out about Tier1, initially I was reluctant since the price is about 2x of my previous holster. Long story short I decided to go with the Axis Slim and add a TLR7 option. My holster arrived in <3 weeks. I can't be happier with this purchased. Yes it's expensive AF after adding the wedge pack and the discreet clip set. But it's worth every penny! Pics attached with my fav Team USA hoodies. It still conceals very well with my L siE jersey and summer T shirt. What more can I ask? Thanks so much Tier1 team..I told my friends and 6 of them decided to give Tier1 a try for their EDC.
Jerson B.
I absolutely love this holster, I carry appendix and it’s super comfortable. I just started carrying concealed and my concern was that it would be uncomfortable and which ever holster I chose would not conceal very well. This holster takes care of both with ease! Definitely buying a second one soon.
Mitchell R.
Best customization options of many brands. Comfortable to wear and barely notice it's there. I have started carrying more, this holster just makes it easier. Got it on sale, but it's definitely worth the money.
Carlson C.
Holster is light, comfortable, and sturdy. Will be purchasing another.
Eli Z.
Got this for my G2C! Fits perfectly! Came in yesterday didn’t know how the snow was going to affect delivery but it arrived on time! Love it! Very comfortable! I’m a Tow Truck Driver so being being able to bend and move around while carrying is important and this definitely does that!
Joseph N.
I bought it for my P229 as this was the main option available. I can't wait till the Aegis line becomes a option for the p229. So far with daily use and hundreds of dryfire drills its holding up and giving me the exact quality and durability I've come to expect from Tier1. I'm 6ft 1inch at 145 lbs. I'm tall and lanky. But this holster with a small wedge and I'm carrying a P229 Legion with a red dot and a 17rd back up with virtually no printing. I don't have to wear overly baggy shirts either just my normal large band tees or button ups. Can't wait till my Spara arrives this week, once again Top Tier quality from Tier1 keep up the good work guys!
Joel W.
It does its job well. I dont have any tactical girth so appendix carry is not really for me. Not with my current glock anyways.
For walking around though, it carries well.
Angel M.
The only holster I can trust. Only wish they accommodate my SRO’s without modification. The SRO bottoms out before the pistols seat.
Eric V.
I have to say, the holster is an excellent conceallable holster with quick access in retrieving my firearm. I would definitely recommend it to other people. Excellent product!!!
Thomas M.
It’s an excellent product!!
Jon Ross V.
You already know it’s Tier1 all day everyday!! Like they all say.. buy once cry later! But that’s a myth cause I’ll be crying always since I need a holster for every pew pew I have!
Shannon O.
The best thing I ever did was find Tier1 Concealed! As a long time Conceal/Carrier here in MN and an Instructor I like many have the pile of junk holsters. When I started carrying there were very few if any choices! I found the best and they are the only holster co I will ever use! People think appendix carry is uncomfortable but not with Tier1! I drove 18 hours to TX and 18 hours back for training. I never once wanted or needed to remove this holster the whole time. That's a true testimony to their holsters!!!!!!
Jeremiah F.
Best feeling appendix holster I’ve used. I tried 4 companies who offers the configuration and nothing compares. tier1’s comfort, functionality and style is unmatched. Price point is worth it because it’s the only holster you’ll ever use.
Nicholas P.
This was my first rig ever so I dont have much experience in this game. What I can tell you is I carry a CZP01 with a 7TLRA and it’s extremely comfortable. This company had focused on quality and comfortably. I was so happy with this holster that I went ahead and ordered a msp.
Tom T.
I'm 5'6" and 155...not a big guy... I heard a lot of good things about Tier 1 from a buddy of mine and finally got an Axis Slim w/ spare mag carrier for a VP9 w/ TLR-1. Surprisingly, it fits really well and allows me to carry a full size and conceal better than the 365 I used to carry. Great quality, fit and adjustability. I'm sure I'll be going back for more from the folks there at Tier 1. Pricey, but as frugal as I am, in my eyes, the cost is worth it to me.
1 suggestion: The edges on the kydex against my body are relatively sharp and scrape against my stomach. I'll need to shave those areas down. At this price, I would expect the finish quality to be better. (This is the only reason I gave 4 stars...if this were squared away, I'd have given 5 stars for sure.)
1 request: More availability of light configurations would be much appreciated. I was really wanting an axis elite, but the pistol/light config wasn't available.
Vincent P.
As always Tier One is the best. Great holster, Great product and great service. A+
GAYLE H.
Absolutely love it!!!!!
Michael G.
This thing is badass, super comfortable. Will be buying another when the time comes!
Michael E.
Incredible fit and finish. Conceals incredibly well especially with the ulti clip 3.
WIlliam D.
Buy once, cry once. Accept no substitutes!
Ryan S.
Can’t recommend this holster enough (or any holster by Tier 1). This is my 3rd one and they always stay consistent on quality, modularity and comfort. Long live Tier 1 Concealed!
James L.
I ordered my first holster and immediately fell in love. I ordered another and then another and they are great appendix carry holsters. I use to carry OWB for many years but now I can't stop carrying appendix. So nice!!!!
Juan L.
This is my second holster from T1C and again what a great product. If anyone is ever looking for a quality holster and you’re looking on this website then just choose your gun make and model cause you’re at the right place already. Thanks again T1C for an other great product, look forward to getting a third. Great job. Keep up the fantastic work!
Randall H.
Love it. Fits and works great.
Mason T.
Ladies and gentlemen, this is the absolute best piece of kydex I’ve ever had the pleasure of putting in my pants. You can spend a fortune in budget or lower cost holsters only to find that they’re terrible. Let’s be honest. We all love R&D. But Instead of buying and trialing uncomfortable bull**** for months, you could get one of these bad boys. These guys have already done all the R&D for us. If you’re looking for nothing but the best, this is it. Thanks guys! Stay frosty.
Don J.
Very nice product
Works great for my needs. Impossible to see. Great conseable holster
Samuel B.
I’ve been using random holsters on Amazon for a while. I’ll never go back. It’s makes the biggest difference having a quality holster and I’m happy I made the switch. Customer for life!
MANUEL Z.
Fits like a glove. Thank you so much for helping me out. Your customer service is awesome.
Geoff M.
Glock 26 with TLR6 and G18 mag.
Ver comfortable with a wedge.
I am slim, 160 lbs, and 5'10.
I also have an axis elite, so far I prefer the slim.
Great customer service. I will be a customer for life.
Thank you Tier 1
Tanner W.
The corners at the bottom tend to dig into my legs if it isn’t worn exactly perfect, and even then it digs in sometimes, otherwise it prints significantly less than any other holster I’ve used.
Marcus C.
Solid holster. No issues with it at all and is great with the Alias system.
Brooks W.
This is the most comfortable holster I have used amd the clips are far better than some of the other brands I have. My one and only complaint is the chord on the back side itches me. I totally recommend this holster and hope they make one for my other firearm at some point.
Aaron C.
A millions great things could and should be said …
10/10 comfort
10/10 quality
10/10 would recommend to everyone
James W.
Got one for my CZ P-09 and it's perfect. The retention keeps the pistol locked in no matter how much I move throughout the day and the holster never shifts in place. I highly recommend this to anyone looking for a good AIWB holster!
Geoffrey A.
Most comfortable holster I’ve carried. I’ve tried quite a few different holsters. Was hesitant to spend the money on this one. But So glad I did. The comfort is unmatched. The retention is amazing. The fit is just as good as it gets. I run the 43x with the tlr7 light. And it fits PERFECT. Order to fit the factory Glock mags but the s15 is a perfect fit as well. 10 out 10 would recommend.
Louis M.
I made a mistake ordering my holster. TC1 helped me when I ordered the correct holster. They didn’t have to but they did. What else do I need to say other than THANK YOU
Don J.
This holster is like all of the holsters I have purchased....A++++
Dante G.
For my first holster I definitely spoiled myself! I hear a lot of complaints about concealed carry holsters, honestly I have no complaints! It's very comfortable for how big it is!
Bryce
First off, I would like to say how much I love my holster. The Axis Elite Slim is by far one of the most ergonomic and comfortable holsters I have ever worn. I used to question whether or not to conceal carry, but now I carry consistently with comfort and confidence.
Tier1 also has top tier customer service, they were quick to receive my request and offer a solution. I am overly impressed with the lengths they will go for their customers.
If you're looking for a superb holster with a company who actually cares, Tier1 is the one for you. I know they'll be who I will continue to get my holsters from.
Joshua S.
Great holster, I love the adjustment, and the ulti-clips allow me to carry with a tucked in shirt.
Ashley K.
Love the holster, can tell the kydex is extremely high quality, my only issue is I wish I knew that getting one side of the premium camo means the other one would be free, because then I would’ve done that. Other than that the holster is perfect! Went with this model because I thought the T1 branding on the main holster was weird, but this one is just as amazing! My gf has the main holster and I can say they are both high quality.
Mike C.
I got my California CCW in February. I had another holster but it was far from comfortable. I bought this one and it changed the game. I’m 6’1 240 and this is a perfect fit for me. Great product!
Esteban S.
Very comfortable even if you have a little bit of stomach, highly recommended with a wedge. Does feel heavy at first but you get used to it
Ryan H.
This is my second Tier1 appendix holster and I have only great things to say about both. Customer service is also top notch. Thank you!!
Bruce K.
I have multiple Tier 1 Holsters and am super stoked on all of them. Super comfortable and easy to move and wear. Always my go to for any new purchase.
Thanks,
Bruce
Daniel M.
This is my second one this style from you. The mag is a bit to high in this one. But still better then a few others. Thanks as I do like them and probably will be back for sure
Geraldo P.
Very satisfied! That is my 3rd one from Tier1.
jake f.
Got it for my glock 19mos with streamlight tlr7-A and it’s been the most comfortable holster i’ve ever worn. I carry my gun day in and day out, sometimes for 8-10 hours a day and it never gets in the way
John P.
Outstanding holster. I can’t explain why, but the width and ergonomics of the axis slim just work and conceal better than any other holster in this class that I have tried. I have one of these for my g43 and g19 and just switched from a T-Rex side car to this for my current EDC (sig p365xl) and it makes it so much easier and more comfortable to carry.
Benjamin E A.
Beretta 92 FS(full size). Fits comfortably.
John F.
More comfortable than my previous holster. I like the way it looks and love the comfort.
michael c.
Excellent conceilability. Glock 48 doesn't show with the lightest of cover garment. Well made,and comfortable.
Keaton H.
This holster is extremely comfortable!! However, I did make a change after I ordered to the Axis Elite, so this review is actually for the Elite modle not the Slim. I'm sure the Slim is just as reliable and comfortable fitting for those who choose to go that route... which brings me to another point. The customer service is amazing. I sent an email asking to make the switch the type of holster I wanted and they were prompt with responses and made sure I was completely satisfied with the changes. The holster took a bit to arrive, but man was it worth the wait. Since getting mine I have recommended them to my range buddies and anyone else looking for a good holster. You cannot go wrong with Tier1.
Side note: I would highly recommend upgrading to the ULTI clips!
michael m.
Wish I had bought this sooner. So much better than my old holster
Casey C.
Couldn't be happier with the comfort of this holster. It is far less bothersome than some much smaller holsters I've used in the past.
John K.
Absolutely fantastic experience start to finish. I called the customer service line for a few helpful tips, which they happily answered. Ordered my holster, and waited patiently until its arrival. It’s exactly what I wanted, and I couldn’t be any happier. Also ordered the Kore belt and some foam pads, a must in this guy’s opinion. My first T1C holster, but won’t be my last!
LIFETIME WARRANTY
AXIS Holster (Formerly AXIS SLIM)
The AXIS Holster, previously known as the AXIS SLIM, builds on the legacy of innovation we established with the AGIS—the first flexible appendix gun-and-mag combo holster. Taking flexibility to the next level, the AXIS was the first holster to introduce military-grade shock cord, revolutionizing comfort and concealment in everyday carry.
We updated the name to reduce confusion with our newer AXIS ELITE model, but this is still the same trusted holster that changed the game. The AXIS features a shock cord connection that allows the firearm and magazine to flex independently, creating a closer fit to the body for improved concealment. This flexibility ensures all-day comfort, whether you're bending, sitting, or moving through your day.
If you're exploring configurations not yet available in the AXIS ELITE, the AXIS remains an excellent option. Additionally, the shock cord is easily replaceable over time and customizable with different colors for a personalized look.
Rediscover the holster that set the standard for innovation—proven, reliable, and still delivering unmatched performance.
