Description
Most folks end up with a drawer full of holsters because no single one covers every situation. The 1791 Gunleather 4-Way Holster in Size 1 aims to fix that by giving you four legitimate carry options in one piece of leather. You can run it vertical on the hip, horizontal in the small of your back, cross-draw on the off side, or tuck it inside the waistband, and a few quick adjustments around your belt are all it takes to change things up. It's cut for right-hand draw and finished in Stealth Black.
What the 4-Way Holster Is Built From
1791 makes this one out of 100% Certified American Heavy Native Steerhide, the same premium leather that runs through their whole lineup. It's reinforced with double-stitched seams and rides on a sturdy steel belt clip, with a hand-molded exterior that hugs your firearm. Leather like this breaks in over time and conforms to your body, so it tends to get more comfortable the longer you carry it. The whole rig is lightweight at right around a third of a pound, and it's made in the USA.
Fitment and Everyday Carry with the Size 1 4-Way
Size 1 is the slim 3" to 4" barrel range. It's built to fit 1911 models with 3" and 4" barrels from makers like Colt, Kimber, Ruger, and Sig, plus the Browning Hi-Power, Glock 48, Sig P365XL, and the Smith & Wesson M&P Shield EZ 380. If you carry more than one of those guns, a single holster can cover several of them.
Room for Lights and Lasers
This is a low-profile design, and the open build means you can modify it to accommodate certain small lights and laser attachments. Between that flexibility, the four carry positions, and the quality of the steerhide, the 4-Way is a solid pick for anyone who wants one holster that adapts instead of a shelf full that don't.

Frequently Asked Questions
What handguns fit the 1791 4-Way Holster in Size 1?
Size 1 is built for slim 3" and 4" barrel pistols. That covers 1911 models with 3" and 4" barrels from makers like Colt, Kimber, Ruger, and Sig, along with the Browning Hi-Power, Glock 48, Sig P365XL, and the Smith & Wesson M&P Shield EZ 380. If you carry a few of those, this one holster can handle several of them.
What are the four carry positions on the 4-Way Holster?
The name comes from the four ways you can wear it: vertical cant on the hip, horizontal in the small of your back, cross-draw on your non-dominant side, and inside the waistband. Switching between them just takes a quick adjustment around your belt. That flexibility lets you match your carry to how you're dressed or what you're doing that day.
Can I use a weapon light or laser with this holster?
Yes, to a point. This is a low-profile design that can be modified to accommodate certain small lights and laser attachments. It's not made for full-size weapon lights, so stick with compact accessories and confirm clearance with your specific setup.
Is the 4-Way Holster real leather, and will it break in?
It's genuine 100% Certified American Heavy Native Steerhide with double-stitched seams and a hand-molded exterior. Like most quality leather holsters, it breaks in and stretches slightly with wear, conforming to your body and your firearm over time. It's also made in the USA and rides on a steel belt clip.
