Safariland Model 25 Suede Pocket Holster for S&W J Frame - Right Handed

The Safariland Model 25 suede pocket holster is a purpose-built carry solution for S&W J Frame revolvers, designed for shooters who prioritize deep concealment and everyday packability. If you carry a snub-nose revolver and want a holster that disappears into a jacket, coat, or pants pocket without printing, this is the real deal—simple, proven, and built on decades of Safariland's holster engineering.

Suede construction offers a key advantage for pocket carry: the material naturally grips fabric, keeping the holster and gun stable inside your pocket as you move. That grip also makes for a smooth, reliable draw when you need it. The design is minimalist by intent—no rails, no tactical frills, just a snug fit built specifically for J Frame geometry. Right-handed carry is standard here, so your draw hand and holster orientation are matched.

This is the kind of holster that works best for back-pocket or interior coat-pocket carry, where a full-size belt holster would be conspicuous. It's ideal for off-duty law enforcement, plainclothes work, or anyone who values deep concealment with a classic revolver. The suede wears in over time, molding slightly to your gun and your pocket's shape, and it's durable enough to handle years of daily carry.
