Does anyone make a pocket holster that does not exit your pocket with the gun? I have tried many, including the "sticky" ones and none work to reliably stay put.
Your gun is in too tight if it's coming out all together and you also have to practice it so where you are "hooking" as you draw so this doesn't happen.
I have been using the DeSantis Nemesis for years and never have had any issues. If you are using this and it's all coming out together, try the next size up with one of them.

These are my two Bear Creek pocket holsters. The reinforced wing on the bottom of the holster is designed to catch the inside edge of the pocket when you draw. It does exactly that, and the gun comes out cleanly.

Being made for the individual gun, Mika's holster probably comes the closest. One problem with most of these holsters is that the makers seem to think it must retain the gun like a belt holster, therefore they make it fit too tightly. All it needs to do is position the gun, as well as protect it from dirt or lint.

I would echo the praise for Mika's pocket holsters. As mentioned, they position the gun, so you need to know the shape of your pocket bottom. Is it square or rounded? I have mostly rounded pockets, so I have a rounded holster. They work great, they keep the gun oriented correctly and stay in the picet too. Mine has a small piece of spring steel in the mouth of the holster that holds it open. This helps during the draw and allows the holster to release the gun.
I use the Stickey Holsters brand and they definitely do not come out with the pistol. With some of my trousers it is a bit of a challenge to get the holster out without turning the pocket inside out.

I have two Mika's and a Desantis. None come out of my pocket with the gun provided that the gun fits the holster. I've had guns that did quite fit for with large rear sights stick to the holster, but normally they slide right out.
