For owners of the formidable Glock 29, finding the perfect holster often presents a complex challenge.

Engineered for the modern firearm owner, this revolutionary modular system transforms seamlessly between various carry methods, providing an all-in-one solution that ensures you're always prepared, no matter the situation or attire. Forget the days of searching for the "best Glock 29 IWB holster" one day and the "most comfortable OWB holster for Glock 29" the next. The ShapeShift kit offers a unified, high-performance answer to the diverse demands of carrying your Glock 29.

The core innovation lies in its intuitive, tool-less modular design. With a simple twist and lock mechanism, the same custom-molded retention shell for your Glock 29 can be effortlessly attached to different bases, instantly converting your carry style.

Unpacking the ShapeShift Glock 29 Holster Kit: Configurations for Every Scenario

The ShapeShift Glock 29 Gun Holster Kit is not just a single holster; it’s a complete ecosystem of carry options. Each kit comes with the components necessary to configure four distinct, highly effective holster types, ensuring maximum flexibility for your Glock 29:

1. The ShapeShift Glock 29 IWB (Inside the Waistband) Holster: For Discreet Concealed Carry

When discretion is paramount, the ShapeShift IWB configuration excels. This is often the go-to choice for individuals seeking to carry their Glock 29 concealed with minimal printing. Designed to be worn inside the waistband, this holster ensures your firearm remains out of sight while providing quick, unhindered access when needed.

Why choose the IWB configuration for your Glock 29?

• Deep Concealment: The IWB design naturally tucks the Glock 29 close to your body, making it virtually invisible under most clothing.
• Superior Comfort: Alien Gear's proprietary CoolVent Neoprene™ backing is a game-changer for IWB comfort. This breathable, sweat-wicking material cushions the firearm against your body, preventing chafing and discomfort, even during extended wear. It adapts to your body's contours, making the Glock 29 feel like a natural extension rather than a bulky impediment.
• Customizable Retention: The IWB shell features adjustable passive retention, allowing you to fine-tune the grip on your Glock 29 for a secure hold that matches your draw preference.
• Enhanced Stability: Multiple mounting points and durable belt clips ensure the holster stays firmly in place, preventing shifting or sagging throughout the day.
• Integrated Sweat Guard: A high sweat guard protects your Glock 29 from corrosive sweat and offers an additional layer of comfort by creating a barrier between the firearm and your skin.

This configuration is ideal for everyday concealed carry, professionals who require discreet firearm carry, or anyone prioritizing maximum concealment without sacrificing accessibility or comfort.

2. The ShapeShift Glock 29 Appendix Carry Holster: Speed and Strategic Placement

The appendix carry (AIWB) method places the firearm in front of the body, typically between the navel and the hip, offering rapid access and enhanced situational awareness. The ShapeShift kit provides a dedicated Appendix Carry configuration optimized for the Glock 29, addressing the unique considerations of this popular carry style.

Benefits of the Appendix Carry for your Glock 29:

• Fastest Draw Times: For many, AIWB offers the quickest path from concealment to a firing grip, making it a preferred choice for defensive situations.
• Enhanced Situational Awareness: Keeping your Glock 29 within your immediate line of sight and reach can provide a psychological edge and quicker reaction times.
• Optimal for Sitting/Driving: Unlike holsters positioned at the hip or small of the back, appendix carry can often be more comfortable and accessible when seated in a vehicle or at a desk.
• Minimal Printing (When Done Right): With proper clothing and holster adjustment, the Glock 29 can be well-concealed in the AIWB position, especially for those with a suitable body type.
• Adjustable Cant and Ride Height: The ShapeShift Appendix Holster allows for precise adjustments to cant (angle) and ride height, enabling you to find the most comfortable and concealable position for your Glock 29.

This configuration is favored by those who prioritize speed of access and strategic placement, particularly for personal defense and everyday carry in specific contexts.

3. The ShapeShift Glock 29 Belt Slide OWB Holster: For Comfortable Open Carry and Range Use

When concealed carry isn't a requirement, or for activities like range practice, hunting, or open carry where permitted, the ShapeShift Belt Slide OWB (Outside the Waistband) Holster offers comfort, stability, and quick access. This configuration positions your Glock 29 securely on your hip, outside your pants.

Why choose the Belt Slide OWB for your Glock 29?

• Unrivaled Comfort: With the firearm carried outside the waistband, there's no pressure against your body, leading to exceptional comfort for extended periods.
• Natural Draw Stroke: The OWB position often allows for a more natural and fluid draw, which is beneficial for training and competitive shooting.
• Robust Stability: The belt slide design uses two wide belt loops, threading your belt through them to cinch the Glock 29 securely to your side, preventing any rocking or flopping.
• Ideal for Layered Clothing: Easily accommodates jackets or sweaters without interfering with the draw.
• Open Carry Preference: A comfortable and secure option for those who prefer or are required to openly carry their Glock 29.

This OWB option is an excellent choice for range days, outdoor activities, or any situation where maximum comfort and ease of access are prioritized over deep concealment.

4. The ShapeShift Glock 29 Paddle Holster OWB: Convenience and Quick Don/Doff

The Paddle Holster OWB configuration offers the ultimate in convenience for carrying your Glock 29 outside the waistband. Its distinctive paddle attachment allows for quick donning and doffing without having to unthread your belt, making it incredibly practical for various situations.

Key advantages of the Paddle Holster for your Glock 29:

• Effortless On/Off: The paddle design slides easily over your waistband and belt, allowing you to put on or take off your Glock 29 holster in seconds. This is invaluable for quick trips, security checkpoints, or simply transitioning between carry needs.
• Solid Retention: Despite its ease of use, the ShapeShift paddle features a robust design that grips securely to your waistband and belt, ensuring the Glock 29 remains firmly in place during movement.
• Adjustable Retention and Cant: Like other ShapeShift configurations, the paddle holster allows for precise adjustment of your Glock 29's passive retention and cant angle, customizing your draw and carry comfort.
• Versatile Application: Perfect for range sessions, hunting trips, or when you need to quickly secure your firearm upon entering or exiting a vehicle or building.

For those who value convenience and quick adaptability in their OWB carry, the ShapeShift Paddle Holster for the Glock 29 is an indispensable component of the kit.

The Engineering Excellence Behind the ShapeShift System

Beyond its remarkable modularity, the ShapeShift Glock 29 Holster Kit is built with Alien Gear Holsters' commitment to quality, durability, and user-centric design. This foundation ensures that no matter which configuration you choose, your Glock 29 is carried securely, comfortably, and reliably.

• Custom-Molded for the Glock 29: Each ShapeShift shell is precision-injection molded specifically for the Glock 29, ensuring a perfect, snug fit that covers the trigger guard completely for enhanced safety and optimal retention. This custom fit prevents any unnecessary play or rattling, providing peace of mind.
• Revolutionary Material Science: The ShapeShift system utilizes Alien Gear's proprietary "Cloak" composite material, which combines durability with flexibility. This advanced polymer is not only robust enough to withstand daily wear and tear but also provides the right amount of flex to conform to your body and allow for smooth draws.
• Steel-Reinforced Core: A unique feature of the ShapeShift system is its steel-reinforced core embedded within the holster shell. This innovative design element provides exceptional rigidity and strength where it's needed most, preventing flex and ensuring consistent retention over time. It's a testament to the engineering that makes these holsters incredibly durable.
• CoolVent Neoprene™ Base: For the IWB and Appendix configurations, the multi-layer base features the signature CoolVent Neoprene™. This material is not just soft; it’s highly breathable and wicks away moisture, preventing sweat buildup and promoting airflow. This significantly reduces discomfort and irritation, a common complaint with traditional IWB holsters.
• Adjustable Passive Retention: Every ShapeShift shell allows users to adjust the passive retention pressure. This means you can easily customize how tightly your Glock 29 is held in the holster, balancing security with the ease of drawing your firearm.
• Tool-Less Customization: One of the most celebrated features of the ShapeShift system is its completely tool-less adjustability. All conversions, cant adjustments, and retention changes can be made with simple twists, turns, and locks, requiring no screwdrivers or specialized tools. This allows for on-the-fly adjustments to suit your immediate needs.
• Made in the USA: Alien Gear Holsters are proudly designed and manufactured in the United States, adhering to rigorous quality control standards and supporting domestic manufacturing.
