"I have owned a lot of holsters during my 32 year law enforcement and training career. I have never seen the quality in Kydex® holsters like FIN Designs holsters. They are so smooth and fast, I do not think you can do better for range/concealment holster than FIN. Speed vs. concealment is a tough thing to produce, FIN does both great. I do not like to sell or endorse products. When I do, I must truly believe in them. Peter Janda is a craftsman who puts his heart and soul into his work and it shows in FIN Designs holsters."
John Benner, President, Tactical Defense Institute

“FIN Designs are some of the finest concealed carry holsters I have had the pleasure to use. Armed confrontations are nasty affairs … something to be avoided. When the time comes that I must face such a situation, I will be glad that I have a FIN Designs holster at my side.”
Dave Spaulding, Ohio

Thank you for the holster and mag pouch you made for me. It is without doubt one of the very best holsters I have ever used, and certainly the fastest. I was very impressed by the fine execution and attention to detail on the fit and finish of the holster. I was equally impressed by its design. It is very secure and simultaneously fast a design feat that takes some real thought. It is snug and secure and rides tight to the body, making it perfect for concealment. The belt slot is well thought out as well, holding the holster tight to the belt and body, and the mini fins on the rear of the slot stabilize the rig nicely. All in all, you seem to have achieved the best of all worlds without seeming to make any trade-offs a feat that almost defies the laws of physics! The pouch is equally well designed and executed. It holds the magazine in the perfect position for access, and allows a full grip to be attained. I think the highest compliment I can give to it is that I dont notice it at all. Which is just what I want!
Ralph Mroz, Massachusetts

“Thanks for the holster. It looks better than anything I have bought.”
John Motil, instructor at Tactical Defense Institute, West Union, Ohio

"As a female police officer and firearms instructor, a good concealable off-duty carry holster is important. Whether I'm depending on the firearm for my self-defense, or on the range in front of a class, this holster by FIN Designs has what it takes. Mr. Janda has taken time to fit the holsters to the unique contours of the female body. The holsters don't ride too high and can be canted or tilted during producation to fit different body types. My greatest praise goes to Mr. Janda for the excellent retention capabilities of his holsters. I tried some "standard" holsters out on the market and could not get the gun out of the holster. Holsters by "FIN Designs" are easy to draw from while having great retention at the same time. I highly recommend Mr. Janda's holsters to everone that depends on a good quality holster."
Nancy Strope, Ohio

“Peter, I have been carrying your TDI Speed holster daily now for almost 6 months. I have to tell you that I am very impressed with both it and its accompanying magazine holder. Your holster is, without a doubt, the fastest holster I’ve ever carried. The gun seems to fly right out of it into my hand. When I timed myself on a shot timer I found that I could average a 0.15 second faster draw with your holster than with the Kydex® holster that I previously carried. Despite this tremendous speed advantage, the gun stays securely in place, even under the most strenuous conditions. I have taught several full contact law enforcement grappling classes while wearing your holster and an unloaded gun. The gun never fell out and the holster was not damaged at all. Previous Kydex® holsters I’ve used were broken in the same types of drills. The holster is comfortable to wear, doesn’t move around on the belt and is thin enough to be concealed under a very light covering garment. I think it might be the ideal holster for concealed carry under a light jacket or heavy sweatshirt. It combines excellent speed with good concealment and retention to create an exceptional overall package. I would highly recommend it for anyone.
Your magazine pouch is equally nice. It is comfortable to carry and fast to access. The snapped belt loops make it easy to remove without taking off your entire belt. Even while running, the magazine stays in place. It compliments your holster very well. I can’t say enough great things about your products, so I’ll let may actions take the place of words. I carry your products every day while the 10 other holsters I have collect dust. That is the best endorsement I can think of. Suffice to say, I’ll be ordering more of your holsters in the future.”
Greg Ellifritz, Police Tactical Training Officer, Ohio

“Great work! Enjoyed watching your holster making and your tactics!”
Dave Stallard, Special Sheriff’s Deputy, Kenton County, Kentucky

“The quality and craftsmanship employed in the manufacture of FIN Designs holsters are immediately apparent. Peter Janda has done an outstanding job on his entire line of holsters.”
Gary Schindler, Ohio

“The fit and finish of your holster and magazine pouch is outstanding and they are very comfortable to wear. In fact, I hardly know that I am wearing them! Personally, I am very happy with your product and I’ll be ordering the same items for another of my pistols in the very near future. I’ll also be recommending your product to the other officers for their off-duty carry needs.”
Mike Sisino, Vermont State Police Officer, Firearms Instructor
