1. SHOPPING

We offer online credit card payments and PayPal. In case a payment doesn't go through or can't be processed, you’ll receive a Paypal invoice, which can be paid for using your credit card (Paypal registration is not necessary).

If you have a problem with your credit card you’ll receive a Paypal invoice and you can carry out the payment by your credit card without Paypal registration. If Paypal is not your favorite option, send us an email and we will offer you other payment options.

Most of our products are custom made, therefore, your credit card is charged so the production of your holster can start.

Our holsters are shipped out from traditional European producers, so you might be charged a small overseas fee. This is being issued by your bank, not by Craft Holsters.

All of our products now come with premium Lifetime Warranty. For more information, check out our Warranty section.

As we value the work of any active or retired Law Enforcement officer, Military member, or First responder, we offer Law Enforcement discounts. You can apply for the discount by filling out the Law Enforcement Discount form.

To find holsters for your gun, go to our entire selection of holsters (holster finder) and select the manufacturer and model of your gun from the drop down menu and click on the "Find Holsters" button. You will be redirected to the products customized for your gun model.

Also, if you want to filter your options, carry styles, materials, attachments, manufacturer, or color, simply use the filter available on the left-hand side of the website.

You can also choose the “in stock” filter to see what items can be shipped right away. And if you need a left-handed holster, simply select the “left handed” filter and see which of our holsters are available for left-handed shooters.

You can find the holsters available for your gun through our holster finder. If you can’t find your gun model, please contact us.

In case of semi-autos, the barrel length is the length from the breech face to the end of the muzzle. In case of revolvers, the barrel length is the length from the face of the cartridge cylinder to the end of the muzzle.
