Cloak Chest HolsterUpdated 6 months ago


Sizing

 


To get the most accurate measurement, use a cloth tape measure or string and measure under the arms.  Measure over the clothes most likely to be worn with the Chest Holster. Think summer carry versus winter carry.  This is particularly important if the measurement under the arms is around 43 inches. 

Specific Strap Measurements

For size Regular, the shoulder strap will max out at 20 inches and the side straps will adjust to 11 inches for the non-dominate side and 12 inches on the draw hand side.  For size Large, the shoulder strap will max out at 21 inches with the side straps measuring 22 inches on the non-dominant side and 24 on the dominate size.  The backer that holds the firearm can vary in size but will be at least 9 inches across.  The back plate is 6 inches wide. 

How To Wear

There are two different ways to wear the Chest Holster.  The most common method is to pass the non-dominant side through the holster, pass the strap behind the back and buckle on the the dominant side.   

The alternate way to carry is to place the shoulder strap on the opposite shoulder.  This does alter the cant and changes the overall feel of the holster. 

Cloak Series Shells 

Cloak Chest Holster is offered for both revolvers and semi-autos, please note that the bolt patterns are not interchangeable. A revolver Chest Holster Base does not fit semi-auto shells.
