Not a happy camper - Alien Gear Holsters ShapeShift 4.0 IWB Holster

I'm not wanting to bash Alien Gear products; however this product does not work for me. I tried it on four occasions. An occasion for me is 4-12 hours wearing. So yes, I spent some time with it. Number one issue. Trying to install inside waistband. The side that goes against your pants has all types of protrusions that restrict a smooth entrance and you end up dropping your belt and unzipping your pants and laying it in like a shield and then putting everything back in place. Consequently, the same thing happens when you want to remove it. Second issue. If you have a true 1.5" belt, you can cut the lips off the bottom to wear it, otherwise forget it. When packing heat, I use a wide belt, not a skinny one. This 4.0 IWB is not for that application.
Once you finally get it installed, it wears OK, not great, just OK. For others it may be the cat's meow, for me, it just didn't work. I have used a Comp-Tac holster for years and thought I would try the Alien Gear, as a good friend highly recommended it. I'll just go back to my Comp-Tac...
FWIW, gave it to my son to try, he might like it.
