Ok like the title says I need help identifying a particular holster. However I don't have a picture. I can try to describe it the best I can. I know it was one of the top and/or most popular kydex quality brands in the early 2000s. It wasn't blade tech or g code. It was fairly plain looking like a blade tech back then. However I thought it was a little more refined with every edge rounded and a little sleeker looking than most at the time. I know they made iwb not sure if they even made owb holsters. I know this isn't a lot to go on. But I think if someone could name off some the holsters from back then before there were hundreds of companies making them, I would recognize the name. I bought one of their holsters in like 2004. It was what I always carried my g27 in. Unfortunately my house was broken into in 2015 and the g27 along with the holster went bye bye. I'd really like to get another if they're still even around.

I knew I'd get some good help. Someone suggested "fist" although I think they made some decent stuff back in the day and actually had a fist holster. That's not it. Btw... I don't know about now, but fist used to have great customer service. I had a fist holster that cracked after like 6 years. I contact them about maybe seeing about fixing it because they weren't cheap holsters. They then overnighted a brand new holster to me. Can't get much better than that. I asked if they wanted the other back and they said nope. So I actually studied up and fixed the cracked one. Used both of them for a very long time till I traded them off with the pistol.

Yup that's it. Whatever happened to this company? The obviously aren't keeping up with trends. Their website is the exact same as it was years ago.

I just signed onto Glocktalk after a long absence today, looking for info on Sidearmor,and I stumbled onto this thread.

I emailed Sidearmor in Oct and Nov 2016 and never got a reply. I want to replace mine since it developed a small crack.

It's a great holster, I've worn it daily since 2002. One of the screws holding on the belt clips got lost and it transformed the holster. Now it has a cant that is widely variable and I can adjust it as needed while wearing it. Works great for minor adjustments as I get in/out of the car, etc.

If anyone knows of a modern holster that works like that, let me know.

Yeah that's definitely it. Yeah I had my sidearmor for over 10 years. I carried it and/or my pm9 religiously. Upon further investigation, I don't think it was actually kydex. Or at least they're website made no mention of it. They just stated thermo injected plastic. Which I guess could still be kydex... I dunno. However I know they were a little softer feeling on your skin unlike a lot of the kydex stuff out there. I also found a thread asking where they were. Folks stated that no one has heard from them in years. Who knows...

If my 62 year-old brain's memory still functioned, I would say that the lady who owned/ran Sidearmor was an administrator here at GT many years ago...I don't remember her name (Pat, maybe?), or what happened to her and her company.
