Meet the minimalist hybrid holster that’s built to disappear under your everyday wardrobe. The DeSantis Gunhide Transit IWB combines the rigidity of Kydex with the comfort of leather to give Glock subcompact carriers a slim, stable, and reliable inside-the-waistband option. Purpose-fit for the Glock 26, Glock 27, and Glock 33, the Transit’s molded Kydex shell guards the trigger and preserves a clean draw stroke, while the natural-finish leather backing softens hotspots for all-day carry. A strong belt clip anchors the holster to your EDC belt for a consistent ride that stays put through movement, driving, and training.
Why Glock 26/27/33 Owners Love the Transit IWB
Hybrid, Done Right: Kydex delivers crisp retention and a defined draw path; leather spreads pressure and conforms to your body over time.
Ambidextrous Versatility: Configure for right- or left-hand carry and reposition along your waistline to suit appendix (AIWB) or behind-the-hip setups.
Slim, Concealment-First Design: Low bulk and a flat profile help reduce printing under light shirts and business-casual layers.
Secure Belt Clip: A robust clip hooks your belt for a stable, repeatable draw, keeping the holster in place during reholstering.
Trigger Coverage & Sight Channel: Molded Kydex encloses the trigger guard, while a defined sight channel helps guide the slide for snag-free draws.

Concealment Without Compromise: The Transit’s low profile helps control printing with subcompact Glocks in fitted clothing.

Training Days & Dry Practice: Consistent retention and ride height support repeatable reps.
Fit & Compatibility Notes

Belts: Pair with a rigid 1.5" EDC belt for best stability and concealment.
Setup & Carry Tips
Unload & Verify Safe before fitting or practicing.
Choose Position: Start at AIWB (~1–2 o’clock) or strong-side (~3–4 o’clock) and adjust for comfort and speed.
Tension Check: Ensure the holster provides firm retention with a smooth draw; practice with an unloaded pistol first.
Cover Garment Test: Try a variety of shirts or jackets to fine-tune concealment and access.
Reholster Slowly: Keep clothing clear, index your finger high on the frame, and reholster with deliberate control.
Care & Maintenance
Leather: Wipe with a dry cloth; avoid soaking or over-conditioning.
Kydex: Clean with mild soap/water; inspect for debris that could scratch your slide.
Hardware: Periodically check clip screws; a tiny drop of medium thread locker helps maintain tension.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Will it work for left-handed carry?
A: Yes. The Transit IWB is ambidextrous, allowing left- or right-hand setup.
Q: Is the cant or ride height adjustable?
A: The Transit uses a fixed clip position for a streamlined profile. Adjust cant and ride by shifting holster position along your belt line.
Q: Will it fit my Gen 5 Glock 26 or an aftermarket slide?
A: It’s profiled for Glock 26/27/33 subcompacts. Most factory slides fit; oversized slide cuts or extra-tall sights may change clearance—verify before carry.
Q: Is one-hand reholstering safe?
A: The Kydex mouth helps the holster keep its shape, but always reholster slowly and deliberately, ensuring garments are clear and your finger is indexed outside the trigger guard.
Safety Reminder
Always follow the four rules of firearm safety. Train extensively with an unloaded firearm before carrying live. Ensure your carry method complies with local laws, and confirm reliable retention and draw from your preferred position.
