With an OWB, the only type I've ever used be they leather or bolatron or kydex with not one did I go through all this type (over time) dissatisfaction.

Get an OWB, you'll experience fewer problems and greater comfort.

The CrossBreed I mentioned above is OWB, but I was referring to the tension on the actual gun when it's holstered. That's the part that seems to have loosened up.

I have a CrossBreed holster for my Colt Defender that I use as my EDC. It's been close to daily for almost 2 years but it seems as if the Kydex isn't holding it nearly as tight anymore. I used to be able to hold the holster upside down and the gun not fall out, but no longer. However, when it's on my belt and it's buckled/tightened it doesn't seem to have a problem. I'm guessing the Kydex has adjusted shape according being strapped to my body rather than loose? Either way, that's the only reason I still use it since it's still secure when strapped on the belt. I'm not sure if that's normal or not though as I thought Kydex never lost or changed its shape.
