Alien Gear Holsters stormed the concealed-carry scene with winged, IWB holsters that incorporated synthetic material and innovative designs to provide outstanding comfort, concealment and retention.

The result is the Cloak MOD, a paddle holster that incorporates the company’s earlier innovations—such as interchangeable shells and spring steel cores—to bolster effectiveness and versatility.
