Galco Gunleather Waistband Iwb For Glk 17 Rh Bk
The Galco Gunleather Waistband IWB holster for Glock 17 is a no-nonsense inside-the-waistband carry option built for shooters who want proven craftsmanship without fuss. Galco has been making leather holsters since the 1950s, and this waistband design reflects that heritage—it's molded specifically for the Glock 17 (and Glock 22) and constructed from premium steerhide that breaks in to fit your body and your draw. Whether you're carrying daily or heading to the range, this right-hand holster delivers secure, comfortable retention and a smooth presentation.
Inside-the-waistband carry sits the gun closer to your body than OWB rigs, which makes it a natural choice for concealed or everyday carry. The Galco Waistband's leather construction provides a classic feel and natural grip texture against your side. It's designed to work with your Glock 17 and is also compatible with the Glock 22—and it'll accommodate either gun even if you've mounted a red dot sight on the slide, so you don't need to swap holsters if your optic setup changes.
Black steerhide ages gracefully and develops character over time. The leather is finished to resist moisture and UV while remaining supple enough to avoid the stiffness that plagues cheap leather holsters. This is a working holster for working shooters: straightforward, reliable, and built to outlast the gun.
