I have been using three of the minotaur's, one for my compact commander and champions (1911's), and two for XD's (summer carry) since February. This summer, I've have mainly been carrying an XD45 compact...plastic gun, lots of sweat, plus it can be broken down and cleaned in 1/3 the time it takes to clean 1911s. I don't like to let it go until the logo turns white from salt residue before cleaning .
I got the slider version, it'll handle any of the XD series. So, if need be, an XDsc, or other XD option.
With two holsters for my XDs, I have one set up with "c" clips for a 1.5" belt, and the other for a 1.75" belt width. I highly recommend the "c" clips with a good stiff belt. Some of the Bianchi (sp?), Beltman, Comp-tac, etc. belts are fantastic, showing absolutely no wear or stretching after 6mos of constant wear with my .45's for 16 hours a day wear. I rotate between the holsters as needed, much like rotating shoes or boots. Smaller belt with dress pants, larger with jeans. A little more expensive, but very useful...like today, working in the garage all morning....soaked the holster, will swap and use the other to go out tonight. Actually, its already dry....no problem.
As for cleaning, saddle soap them as needed. Cleans and seals the leather fine.
I am totally satisfied with the holster. It conceals well in my tucked in shirt, is secure while standing, sitting, or with about every activity I have put it through. Two thumbs up from me. I just ordered two more week before last, they had them in my mailbox in about a week. Good folks.
