Gladius (Appendix Holster)
Description
The Gladius is a Latin word meaning “sword”
specifically used by the ancient Romans.
They protected themselves 2500 years ago with the Gladius and now you can protect yourself with our Gladius holster too.
On this design we focused on a flex concept that allows the holster to bend in the middle. Intertwined with a durable flex (bungee) cord, this will allow the holster to bend with different body types, shapes and sizes.
This is also good for bending over, doing physical activities, driving or sitting.
The pistol portion side uses two pieces of kydex that you can select a color for the front and the back. You will only be able to select one color for the magazine carrier due to it’s one piece design.
Adjust the retention by tightening the top screw on the belt clip right below the trigger guard. If you have a light bearing holster you would need to adjust the top screw on the Modwing. The retention screw for the magazine carrier is located between the pistol and magazine, tighten or loosen for more or less retention.
(PLEASE NOTE: The holster will be longer at the end of the muzzle if you have a compact, sub compact, mirco sub compact or smaller. The holster will need to have that extra material to attach the wedge and properly leverage the muzzle outwards and to pull the top of the slide into the body.)

Custom prints:
Custom prints are also available under the color drop down menu.
Select “custom print” and add your image in the file upload.
For better coverage on the holster it is best if you have the image repeat itself throughout the sheet/holster.
If the image you select is a single image, we will photoshop it to repeat itself on the sheet unless requested otherwise.
Tacware Belt Clips
Injection-molded (belt clips).
5 holes to adjust the ride height.
Can fit both 1.5” and 1.75” belts.
High-strength, yet flexible, polymer holds its shape.
Finger-grab built into the end of the clip for easier installation and removal.
Ulticlip 3
Ulticlip 3 can attach to any fabric material, with no belt. It’s able to clamp onto gym shorts, yoga pants, shorts, sweat pants. (DO NOT ATTACH TO BELT)
Modwing:
The Modwing is designed to push against the beltline. In return it pulls the grip of the pistol flush against the body, helping with concealment and “Printing.” There are two different style modwings; Standard modwing, and light bearing modwing.
WEDGE
The Wedge is designed to mount to the inside face of the holster towards the muzzle end. The Holster Wedge will help lever the top of the slide tightly against the body maximizing concealment, especially in an AIWB configuration.
Shock cord:
The two piece holster and mag carrier design has a shock cord intertwined between the holster. It allows the holster to flex with the body for different body types. The shock cord is a strong durable and elastic material.

I've been searching for months for a AWB/IWB holster to fit the "illegitimate" G23 Gen5. I tried another company prior and specifically asked them before ordering, if their holder will fit it. Sadly, it was a NoGo. But SFH delivered! Great touch on the rubber wedge. It is very comfortable, durable, and easy to clean. I will definitely purchase from you in the future!

Just got my Gladius for my Canik Mete SFT, build quality is great. For a custom made order it made a pretty timely arrival As well. Retention is super tight, extra mag is tight as well, the wedge helps me conceal better , but to be honest I may take it off and see how that feels as well. Thoroughly impressed with the craftsmanship, 100% better made then the rest of my holsters. Thanks guys!

Recently bought a holster for my G22.5MOS. Been searching for one for a while with no luck til I discovered slim fit holsters. Glad I did. Had to heat the kydex around where my wml sits for my preferred retention but other than that I’m impressed with the hostler. Keep up the good work!

I can’t express how good these holsters are. My Gladius fits my 43x like a glove and I’m certain that it will stay as my primary for a while. My brother bought from slimfit when it was smaller and the quality is just as top tier as it was then. will definitely be getting more holsters from slimfit.

Purchased this for my Canik TP9 Elite Sc. Love this style of holster, the rubber pad that goes between the holster & your appendix area prevents that uncomfortable pressure point contact i got from my other IWB holster.
Looks clean, comfortable and holds my Canik and extra mag securely.
Satisfied with my purchase and so far usage has been practical and comfortable.

This one is by far the best AIWB I have found yet and I have ordered many different brands.
It looks amazing, the construction is perfect, the fit and finish is exceptional. I was called by the company due to questions they had to make sure it was made perfect.
So not only is it a freaking amazing holster, they care about what they are making for you and want to make sure it’s exactly what you want.
I will be buying many more from SlimFit!!!

Carried IWB for the last 10+ years. Started AIWB with a different high dollar brand recently and was very uncomfortable. Searching for something better I came across Slimfit. The wedge design is perfect for me and comfort is great. This is my 2nd SFH. I’m trying sell of the other I bought while trying to find the right fit. Highly recommended

I have been on the hunt for the perfect holster over the years and I am sure that I just found it. The quality and craftsmanship is second to none. I greatly appreciate a company who offers both the claw and the wedge that is durable and screws directly into the holster. I will be ordering more holsters from Slim Fit Holsters for my other pistols.

I’ve tried many holsters from different companies. Slimfitholsters knocks it out the park. This is the only company so far that custom makes kydex holsters without costing an arm and a neck. Customer service was exceptional and delivery time was faster than some of the big companies out there. From craftsmanship to the little details, it becomes very clear that they understand the CCW community and their needs. I’ve already bought 2 holsters and about to purchase 2 more. You will not be disappointed.

This is my 3rd holster from slimfit. The holsters are the ONLY brand , that I can wear appendix style for 8-10 hours without removing the gun and spare mag. I will continue to buy all my holsters from slimfit. I have a box full of other brand holsters that just were not comfortable enough to wear all day long. I forget my full size pistol is even there most of the time.

From the way the holster fits to how comfortable it is while sitting, even in the car is just amazing. I’ve had a lot of holsters and tbh none of them are as comfortable as the Slimfit Gladius. The draw is amazing and smooth and of course the holster still holds my weapon in securely. Thank you guys so much. The time it takes till you receive your holster is a tad of a wait but it is well worth it I’ll tell you that. Don’t sleep on these guys, they have an amazing product.
