So I ordered a white and black one of these, since they looked like a cheaper version of 5.11's t-shirt holster. I own 6 5.11s.
I put on tru-spec's shirt, thinner padding on the holster pockets - AND Wide open!! No snaps, no velcro, I suppose they think friction is good enough - not. I put a S&W 637 .38 snubby in (safe and unloaded). The butt of the gun is about an inch from the holster opening just putting it in. I jumped up and down, shimmied, wiggled, etc. The pistol almost fell out. Without some owner initiated modifications, this shirt is dangerous. Of course, they can't put snaps or velcro to hold the pistol secure, 5.11's lawyers will have a fit. So if you buy these, and they are pretty good, except for that safety issue, make sure you put some on the holster openings to keep your pistol from falling out.
Pros:
- Price
- Good fit
- Good material
- good sewing
Cons:
- gun falls out
- nothing to keep the pistol secure in the holster
- poorly copied from another source
Best Used for:
- passports
- Money
- Nothing, until you fix the holsters
- wallet
- Not a gun
Would recommend: No

I purchased this shirt to hold the battery packs for my new heart pump. It works perfectly for me, the only issue is I could use a 4xl because I'm still healing from my surgery and the compression fit is a little tight. Once I recover more and get back my chiseled abs...they will fit better.

this shirt allows me to carry my " mouse gun" easily which is why i bought it... it also does not "print" and does concealment very well... it also does not shrink when washed... if i had a minor criticism it is that i cannot get to the gun very quickly but my job requires perfect concealment....

The Tru-Spec 24-7 shirt is the only way I have found to comfortably carry a
small to medium frame handgun. Wear a semi-loose fitting shirt over it and nobody
will ever know you have your firearm with you! Open one button on the outer
shirt for easy access to firearm.

This really is a great shirt. The only reason I don't give it a 5-star rating is that after a while, the shirt does sag some, albeit very little. If it were "just a hair" sturdier, I would give it 5-stars hands down. I bought three (3) of them, and I imagine they will last me for years to come. One last thing, they are better in cooler weather though, but then again, I am hot natured.

My Fiance loved the shirt. He is 6'5 and the length was perfect. I was very happy with the purchase. He has 2 of these shirts already and this one is his favorite! Comfortable and easy to conceal his weapon. I can't even tell he has his gun on him when he wears this shirt! Great Buy!

Like the title says - this is a very comfortable shirt and the holster/pockets are excellent position - but there is no retention strap (which is fine), so the weapon must be seated far down the pocket with muzzle in reinforced corner.
For comparison - I have several UnderTech shirts - which are not as comfortable and the pockets put the weapon directly under armpit (not as quick to draw as the TruSpec and not ideal area due to sweat)... but the UnderTech has a retention strap (which isn't needed) and the pocket is tighter/elastic so it retains weapon very well...
If one could combine the two shirts, it would be a real winner... but of the two, I favor this TruSpec and intend to get more.
Pros:
- Quality
- Comfortable
- Good weapon position
Cons:
- retention could be better - but its suitable
Would recommend: Yes
