Description
Pocket carry only works if the gun sits where you expect it and comes out clean. That's the whole idea behind the Uncle Mike's Inside the Pocket Holster in Size 2. Built for most small .380 autos, it rides upright inside your pants or jacket pocket so you can get a proper grip before the draw, and the open-top design keeps levers, buttons and safeties from getting bumped around the way a bare gun loose in a pocket tends to do.
The body is made from a soft suede-like material with foam padding wrapped in a waterproof laminate. That construction does a couple of jobs at once: it cushions your leg from the hard edges of the gun, blocks sweat from reaching the metal, and knocks down the print-through so the shape reads more like a wallet or phone than a firearm. It also keeps lint, coins and other pocket junk out of the action, which matters more than people think when it comes to a reliable draw.
What Sets the Size 2 Pocket Holster Apart
The standout feature here is the one-inch non-slip band that wraps the outside of the holster body. When you draw, that band grips the inside of your pocket and lets the gun slide free while the holster stays behind. No fishing a stuck holster out with the pistol attached. The ambidextrous build means it drops into a left or right pocket with no fuss, so southpaws and righties get the same setup.
Fit Notes for the Uncle Mike's Pocket Holster
Size 2 is cut for most small semi-auto .380s, think along the lines of the Ruger LCP and similar frames. It molds reasonably tight to the gun once it's riding in the pocket. If you run a slightly larger subcompact 9mm or .40, you'll want to size up the line instead. Match the holster to the pistol and this thing disappears in your pocket while keeping the gun exactly where it should be.

Frequently Asked Questions
What guns does the Size 2 Inside the Pocket Holster fit?
Size 2 is designed for most small .380 autos, including pistols along the lines of the Ruger LCP and similar compact frames. It molds fairly snug to the gun once it's in your pocket. If you carry a larger subcompact 9mm or .40, step up in the size line for a better fit.
Does the holster stay in the pocket when you draw?
That's exactly what the one-inch non-slip band around the outside is for. When you pull the pistol free, the band grips the inside of your pocket so the holster stays put instead of coming out with the gun. It's the feature that makes pocket carry practical with this setup.
Is the Uncle Mike's pocket holster truly ambidextrous?
Yes. The design works in a left or right pocket with no changes, so lefties and righties both get the same upright, grip-up positioning. You can also move it between pants and jacket pockets depending on how you're dressed that day.
Will this holster help hide the shape of my gun?
The laminated suede-like body is built to reduce print-through, so the outline reads less like a firearm and more like an everyday pocket item. The padding also cushions your leg and blocks sweat from reaching the metal. On top of that, it keeps lint and loose change out of the action for a cleaner draw.
