While it covers up well, there is a very significant bump on my hip. If I untuck, or wear a jacket, it is not a problem, so I am always untucked. The pistol is what it is, so I don't see a solution for hiding the bump other than untucking the shirt. Perhaps I am doing something wrong. I wear it in the 4 or 5 position.
karder, I've had my Supertuck for about a year and 95% of the time I wear it with my shirt tucked in. I was aware of the "bump" on my hip but no one else seemed to notice. As others have said, people are so wrapped up in their own world that they don't have the time or desire to notice things like that.
Dragonfighter, it sounds like you and I are built the same way. I had a Galco IWB with a single clip, too. The couple times I had the displeasure of wearing it, it felt like taking a brick and wearing it IWB. You will like the Supertuck. Just a thought, get a belt heavy enough to support your firearm. I didn't think it would make that much difference, but it really does!
My $0.02 worth!

Thanks, I am really looking forward to this gadget. Austinrealtor said about the same thing as to build. I dislike wearing a bra to church, though it does make me more sympathetic to the wife

. As far as belts go, since my Bullard purchase I've been wearing my issue belt pretty much all the time, it seems to do well...but I'll see.

Bought a Supertuck for a xd-40sc about 2 months ago. Liked it so much I bought one for my 1911s after 2 weeks and have been wearing it ever since. Wear it tucked or untucked and nobody seems to notice. 5'8" and 180 lbs and the 1911 is full size and carried on a good heavy belt. Should have bought the Supertuck for the SP101 that was offered. Don't think I will ever use another type of holster for cc. Thought i would never wear an iwb but am now a believer of all the Supertuck advocates on this forum. Enjoy your new holster.

I am also blessed with more than adequate food reserves and I have four supertucks. They work great. I like being able to adjust ride height and cant. One thing I would recommend... get the J hooks. I ordered them on my first three and then forgot on my forth. They want to charge me 9 bucks for shipping for just one set of hooks. Too much money, so now I have to wait until I need another holster.

Blast! I already ordered before I knew what the J Hooks were about. I'll see if I can modify the order but I dunno.

Email and ask them. The J hooks make it easier to put on and take off the holster. they are also less obvious than the metal clips coming down over your belt in two spots. The metal clips also wear on the top of your belt and will begin to scuff it after you take it off and put it on a few times.. All in my humble opinion...

Done, we'll see what they say.

They are tops notch folks at Crossbreed. I sent them an email concerning the J hooks that I had spoke of in my earlier post. I was asking them if we could figure out a cheaper shipping method for them. The other day a package arrived with two J Hooks... NO CHARGE!!!!

I am impressed. I have purchased four holsters from them so far. Maybe this is why he shipped the J hooks at no charge. Either way, they went above and beyond my expectations. That move locked me in. Customer service like that is real tough to come by these days. My hats off to Crossbreed.

I wasn't going to post this in case it was exceptional. I had sent an email and had not gotten a reply so I called. The lady looked up my order and said, "Okay we've added the "J" hooks." I asked if they were going to use the original authorization or if they needed my card information. "Oh no! We're throwing them in, no charge." I feel like Dorfman in "Animal House": "Oh boy, oooooooohhhh boyee."

I've just ordered one based on the recommendations in this thread! I ordered a set of J hooks as well as the standard hooks. I also went for the combat cut -- anyone try that?

Some guys do the cut themselves. I personally don't like the combat cut as it allows the grip to press against my side which is more of an issue for me than trying to quick draw. I don't really believe the combat cut has any real advantage other than sounding cool.

I recieved mine Friday. I have to say that this is the most comfortable holster I have ever used.

I'm wanting to get one for the P380 I just bought. Has anyone tried the micro clip holster they offer? It uses a single clip.
