Those things are more likely to attract attention than potentially printing with an iwb pistol.Those went out of style about 25yrs ago when phones and personal devices were the size of bibles.
No one wears that stuff anymore. Everyone will look at you.May I introduce you to the sneaky Pete holster…..

Ankle holster and non-skinny pants. /threadI do own a 365 w/ a vedder holster- but I work in the restaurant industry. Even that would be difficult to conceal an entire shift given how much I move around etc.
What might be the best setup to avoid printing/etc?
Anyone pulled this off w/ certain firearms/holsters etc? Hoodies are not part of the acceptable attire unfortunately!
Tape is for the armor, front and back. Do you know anything?365 9mm or LCP .380, use 100mph tape to wrap around your body under your shirt. Secure and available. If you’re hairy just hold your breath when you take it off. lol
Good point. In that case he can get 2 .380’s then and tape them upside down to his forearms under his sleeves and go monk style.Tape is for the armor, front and back. Do you know anything?
You'd have to take into account relative humidity throughout the work day, but sure. Go to serve some food and one of your gats gets loose.Good point. In that case he can get 2 .380’s then and tape them upside down to his forearms under his sleeves and go monk style.
Anything named MagnumAnkle holster a 32hr mag
Don't forget to go Sunny in Philly style with a gun taped to your back, just below your neck.Good point. In that case he can get 2 .380’s then and tape them upside down to his forearms under his sleeves and go monk style.
Everything old is new again…No one wears that stuff anymore. Everyone will look at you.
There was a time when people carried their phones like that, but last time I saw anyone do that was around 2010. I remember because I was in the Thomson Reuters building and thought "WTF".
I agree!Those things are more likely to attract attention than potentially printing with an iwb pistol.
That one thing is not "new again".Everything old is new again…
PS. I would never use one…
If you want to stick with your P365, this works very well for me using a 1" or 1-1/4" webbing belt and any shirt over. Very comfortable carried 2 o'clock with the butt above beltline canted forward. Without a red dot/extended barrel and with a 10rd mag (12rd shown), even better, I'd guess. I've not had a snag drawing yet but you need to tuck the cord right.I do own a 365 w/ a vedder holster- but I work in the restaurant industry.

PM9 pocket carry = printing for me. It's impossible to draw and VERY obvious I have a gun in my pocket. Also uncomfortable.I’ve got a PM9. I don’t understand why someone would carry it any way other than pocket carry.
Good points to consider for sure, but for most people in MA at least the idea that someone would be carrying a firearm doesn’t even cross their mind. I doubt any of them would even know someone had a firearm even if they saw them printing as they walked by.Whos more likely to get noticed as probably having a gun, the guy in baggy clothes with cargo pants and a fanny pack, or someone in joggers and a tight jacket?
I love the idea, reminds me of seventies cop showsJ frame in an ankle holster.... but I was a lot younger then
I get the idea of optics and all. But different situations need different solutions. Pocket carry with some good bright sitesI would love to hear input on the phlster from anyone experienced with it. I wonder if it would accommodate a rmr on the pistol. That's why pocket carry usually doesn’t work for me.
