Description
The Uncle Mike's Inside Pant Holster in Size 16 is one of those no-nonsense concealment rigs that just works. It's built from an ultra-thin four-layer laminate that's no thicker than a conventional suede leather holster, so it tucks your pistol inside the waistband without the printing and bulk you'd expect. This one is the open-top version set up for left-hand carry, and it fits medium and large semi-autos running 3.25 to 3.75 inch barrels, including popular slim carry guns like the Glock 48.
What Makes the Inside Pant Holster Work
The open-top design is all about speed. There's no strap or snap to fuss with, so you get a clean, positive draw every time you reach for it. A tough molded belt clip slips over your pant top and belt to hold the gun securely and anchor it in place, and the suede-like exterior grips the inside of your waistband so the holster stays put when you draw. Inside, a smooth nylon lining lets the pistol slide out easily.
Comfort That Holds Up for Daily Carry
One of the real selling points here is comfort. An internal moisture barrier keeps perspiration off your gun, which matters a lot when you're carrying all day against your body. Folks who carry these tend to point out how light and thin they feel compared to leather, and how they hold their shape without digging in. It's a practical, low-profile option that doesn't fight you when you're walking around or sitting down.
Fitting Your Pistol in the Size 16
Size matters with these, so match it to your gun. The Size 16 is cut for medium and large automatics with barrels in the 3.25 to 3.75 inch range. If your pistol runs a longer barrel, you'd want to step up to a Size 15, which covers the 3.75 to 4.5 inch large autos. For left-handed carry with a compact or mid-size auto, this Size 16 is a dependable, budget-friendly way to carry concealed.

Frequently Asked Questions
What pistols does the Size 16 Inside Pant Holster fit?
The Size 16 is designed for medium and large semi-automatic pistols with barrels measuring 3.25 to 3.75 inches. That covers a lot of popular carry autos, including the Glock 48. If your pistol has a longer barrel in the 3.75 to 4.5 inch range, you'd want a Size 15 instead.
Is this the open-top style or does it have a retention strap?
This is the open-top version, which means there's no strap or snap to deal with. That design gives you a faster, cleaner draw when you reach for your firearm. Uncle Mike's does make this same holster with a fold-over retention strap if you prefer added security, but that's a separate model.
Is this holster set up for left-hand or right-hand carry?
This particular holster is built for left-hand carry. The belt clip and open-top cut are oriented for drawing with your left hand. If you carry right-handed, make sure to grab the right-hand version instead.
How does this nylon holster compare to leather for everyday carry?
The four-layer laminate is no thicker than a conventional suede leather holster, so it carries slim and conceals well. Many who use it find it lighter and more comfortable against the body than leather, and the internal moisture barrier keeps sweat off your gun. It's a practical, affordable choice for daily concealed carry.
