CCW Breakaway Pants

If the carry even is close to it as are the "Toters Jean" you can forget it! Well I will forget anyways. It was a waste of good money. Buy yourself a good pocket holster if that is your form of carry.

What is your complaint against the Toters Jean?

I don't know about Carl , but $92 for a pair of britches . All my pants added up don't cost that much .

I agree with Carl about using that money to buy a quality holster that you can wear everyday verses one pair of pants.

Wow! I never noticed the price of the Toters Jean. I didn't see any price on the CCW Breakaway Pants. If they are the same price, that might be a deal breaker. However, I can see a specialized item that is made in the U.S.A would be much more expensive.

Not only are they pricey, but they are not practical. Number one on the break away pants have you ever had something come unsnapped or the velcro break loose? On the toter jeans the gun rides to high and thus when you sit it has a tendency to come out. It is like a "pocket" in a pocket, but made out of elastic and does not secure the gun very well or at least it did not for me.

They are very well made jeans they are just not what they are advertised to be. I believe that a good pocket holster beats these pants all together. At least that is my experience with the toters. They were too expensive to leave hanging in the closet.

Thanks for your reply Carlson1.

I have never seen the Toters jeans in person, but based on the video, the CCW breakawyas seem to be a slightly different animal. In the CCW pants, a full size 1911 can fit completely inside the pocket. The snaps on the pocket rim are not the sole method to retain the weapon (they have a velcro strap system inside the pocket for retention that is adjustable to the weapon). When unsnapped, the size of the pocket opening increases significantly, allowing for a clean draw (with practice I assume).

If you normally carry a small frame weapon, I agree that a simple pocket holster is a better choice. Sticking a full size 1911 in the front pocket of standard pants is a bad idea though.

For me, I normally wear jeans, and I normally carry in a quality IWB holster. Sometimes I have to (or want to) dress a little nicer, and I'm not a fan of tuckables. These look like they might be a good solution to those situations.

Well, I just ordered a pair to try them out. I'll be back in country mid Dec for some leave and they should be waiting.

This guy, Jay, just started this thing back in January and I talked to him for 20 minutes or so. He seems like a stand up guy and if the product is as good quality as it looks I will let you know. I hope you'll keep him in mind if you need this type product. He's only got the slacks in stock; the cargos are backordered. I've got a pair of the 5.11 gun pants and they do not work at all for me. The generic bag is inside the waistband and too far front. Maybe if I got a ibgger size... hmm.

Anyway, I'll post here again once I've tried a pair.

Drawing fom break away pockets look just as fast if not faster as a iwb draw. But the motion does not look as smooth and would attract attention to you. Would some one franticly digging in their front pocket get a bullet faster than someone reaching behind their back? I don't have any research to back up my speculation. A holster will work with any pair of pants you already own. Still seems like an interesting idea though

I was excpecting it to be the same thing, with a holster strapped on his leg underneath, glad it wasnt
