I carry a Khar CM9 in a Mika pocket holster, normally without issue in Duluth jeans, but the last pair I bought they oriented the pockets a lot more toward the front of the leg rather than to the side. Every time I take a step it prints bad. Not that anyone notices, it takes away from the jeans though. I hope it was just a weird pair.

I’ve pocket carried pretty much nonstop for 30 years. It’s the easiest most natural way for me.
J frame, colt pocket 9, kahr pm9, lcp, now an sig 365.

I highly recommend 5.11 flex jeans.

Pocket carry is convenient. I highly recommend this company for pocket carry holsters.

I have "pocket" carried small pistols and revolvers off and on for years. I have preferred padded fabric holsters for this purpose, just figured it was more comfortable than Kydex. I just received my Vedder Pocket Locker for my LCP, it is my preferred pocket holster for this little gun, in fact I liked it so much I ordered one for my P365, and am optimistic that it will be a great combination when I find that pocket carry is the order of the day.

They were really big cargo short pockets. Not recommended for every day carry … but it can be done.

Switched from the Remora to the Vedder Pocket Locker for the LCP. Much more comfortable to carry. Will now get the Vedder Pocket Locker for my other guns in pocket rotation.

+1 for the Desantis Nemesis. I use mine to carry an LCP when other options are unworkable. It's not great, but it's better than a pocket knife. Note that Desantis sells a similar rig, the Super Fly, which is basically the same as the Nemesis but with an extra flap to prevent printing. 20 years ago I attempted pocket carry with P232 and a Super Fly. I found the extra flap just adds bulk and stopped using it (the flap is just velcro-ed on).

I pocket carry a 9mm revolver ruger, and a 357 mag revolver ruger, and a 380 colt mustang pocket light.

I’ve done it. I own proper holsters for it. It certainly has never been my first choice for anything besides a quick stroll outside of my house. I’m not tall though so my pockets are sized accordingly. lol

If I was a monster I think pocket carry would have more universal appeal to me than its current niche.

I posted on this subject about 18 months ago, but things have changed. Health and age are catching up to me (heck, they've grabbed me by the throat) and I don't go out as often.

At home, it's a P365 with Wilson's grip module on one of 4 365s. I drop it in a Vedder Pocket Locker. No problem in jeans, slacks (rarely worn) or shorts (worm most all the time).

If I go out, usually a different P365 goes with me IWB with an extra mag. But I do sometimes just pocket carry out to a store like I do at home.

That pocket locker is a great holster, and I like it more than others I have tried.

In my experience the snubbie 38 and the P365 are about the largest that work for me in my pocket. A Glock 43X is just slightly too large though I love all of mine for IWB with a 15 round mag.

I understand Glock is gonna bring out their own 15 round mags for the 43X. Looking forward to that.

It works for me, just be careful not to shoot yourself in the family jewels.
