Thought it would be interesting to see how your gun and holster are holding up from daily carry.
Here is my Hidden Hybrid and Storm after a couple of days of carry. Just got my plastic the other day :)
You can see there are already some light marks from some practice, normal wear, and also some light scratches near the belt holes. No wear on gun.

This one is for a sig 938 after wearing 99.9% of a year. It has done very well I think.

How's your sig look? Any wear marks?

The kydex rubbed the loaded chamber indicator and thats about it. Everything else was from shooting but not from the holster.

I love me some honest wear on a firearm...some guns don't even look right without it, imo.

Kydex (plastic) is hard on the frame's finish. I don't mind wear on my EDC (Sig P239) but I would rather not accelerate it with kydex so my holsters are leather. If you like those kinds of holsters, that's great - I'm not slamming those choices. For sure you get rubbing with leather but my opinion is that it is less of an issue than with kydex.

Doesn't have to be Kydex. Got any pics of your EDC leather and Sig?
