Premium Black Leather Construction
Bianchi’s 57 Remedy holsters are made from rugged, full-grain leather that’s built to handle daily carry while molding to your body over time. Bianchi Leather+1
Construction benefits:
Full-grain leather for durability, structure, and classic appearance
Black finish that matches duty belts and modern defensive pistols
Leather will break in and conform to your Shield and your hip, improving comfort with regular wear
The combination of quality leather and precise molding gives this holster a timeless look with modern performance.
Deep Contour Molding for Comfort and Retention
One of the signature features of the Bianchi 57 Remedy is its deep contour molding on the front of the holster. Bianchi Leather+2copsplus.com+2
What deep molding does for you:
Creates a secure, glove-like fit around the M&P Shield
Helps lock the firearm in place without the need for bulky retention systems
Improves comfort by following the gun’s shape, rather than pressing a flat slab of leather into your side
Gives the holster a distinct, professional appearance, clearly revealing the handgun profile
The result is a holster that feels stable and secure without sacrificing speed on the draw.
Hip or Rear-Hip Carry with Hi-Ride Belt Slide
The Model 57 Remedy is designed for hip or rear-hip carry, riding relatively high on the belt for a natural draw stroke and improved concealment under a cover garment. Bianchi Leather+2homebasey.com+2
Carry characteristics:
Hi-ride OWB position keeps the Shield tight to the body, reducing printing
Works well at the 3–4 o’clock position for right-handed shooters
Excellent balance of accessibility and concealability, especially with light jackets, hoodies, or untucked shirts
That high, close-to-body ride makes the 57 Remedy a strong choice if you prefer OWB comfort but still need real-world concealment.
Slim, Low-Profile Belt Slide for Everyday Concealment
With its compact footprint and slim profile, the Bianchi 57 Remedy offers the secure hold of a full-size holster without unnecessary bulk. highbyoutdoors.com+1
Belt slide design keeps the holster close to the body and reduces overall width
Compact size makes it easy to conceal even on smaller frames
Minimalistic leather footprint means greater comfort when sitting, driving, or bending
If you’ve struggled with bulky OWB rigs in the past, this low-profile design is a refreshing change.
Fits Belts Up to 1.5" Wide
The 57 Remedy uses dual belt slots to provide stability and keep the rig anchored during draw and reholster. It’s designed to fit belts up to 1.5" wide, which covers most quality gun belts and everyday leather belts. highbyoutdoors.com+1
Belt compatibility benefits:
Two-slot system pulls the holster tight against your side
Works with typical 1.25"–1.5" concealed carry belts
Provides a secure, wobble-free platform for your M&P Shield
A solid belt match means better comfort, better concealment, and more consistent draws.
