Our gun belt backs are suede so the belt stays where it is buckled. All holsters have a hammer tie down or strap across the action.

All our holsters can be ordered in any of the draw styles. Cross-draw or strong-hand draw. For the twist draw we recommend our classic Slim Jim holster.

More detailed information about our leather is available here

Hand Made Leather

Back in the 1880s cowboys earned a dollar a day if they were good, and the luxury of a gun belt and holster or some other fine custom hand made leather work might often be determined by their own abilities as a leather worker.

Being skilled workers with leather, most saddle makers were commissioned to make gun leather, and a cottage industry thrived in the 19th and early decades of the 20th century.

Thanks to the Internet those days have returned. Why bother with cheap mass produced gun leather, when for a few extra bucks you can have quality custom cowboy leather work made to order and to last.

What does Custom mean?

We make our Hand Made Holsters, belts and Indian Rifle Sheaths to fit your firearms. We offer custom fit on our holsters for almost any pistol, and make our gun and cartridge belts to your waist and cartridge size. Enter your info in the comments box during checkout.

You get to confirm all details when we send you a production receipt once your order is received. Leather ships 3-5 weeks after the order is confirmed.

Made to order. Made to last.
Made in America by the Cowboys at The Last Best West
