The ACE-1 features an advanced backer we call the VSB, or variable stiffness backer.The VSB features an incredibly tough leather front, a polymer stiffener insert, and a comfortable, genuine suede backing. Increasing the benefits of the VSB, the polymer stiffener functions as an impermeable moisture barrier to protect your gun from corrosion, rather than allowing sweat to pass through the holster and onto the inside of the kydex shell or onto the gun directly. Further, thanks to the consistency and controllability of the polymer stiffener, it's designed to bend exactly where you need it to most, and be supportive where it needs to be, making it amazingly comfortable.Adding to the comfort, all of our holsters feature a full sweat guard, meaning the backer protects you from all of potentially uncomfortable protrusions of your gun, such as safety levers, and beavertails. While it protects your from discomfort, our backers are also cut to allow a full grip on your pistol when you draw.The ACE-1 now features more adjustability than ever before! With retention adjustment screws all around the holster, you can fine tune the fit and draw weight of your holster to exactly what you want. Additionally, with six different clip positioning holes, you can adjust both the angle and height the holster sits at to find the ultimate crossroads of comfort and concealability.All of these features and more, such as a flared opening for safe and easy reholstering, complete coverage of your gun up to the muzzle, and a beautiful finish, combined with its long, impeccable track record make the ACE-1 one of the most trusted holsters on the market today! ## Features - Genuine Suede - Our Variable Stiffness Backer, or VSB, features a durable leather face, a polymer stiffening insert, and a soft suede backing. This combination creates a sweat proof barrier between your body and the handgun, yet is flexible enough to move with you. - Adjustable Retention - With adjustment screws all around the holster, you can hand tune the draw weight to fit exactly what you want for your specific situation. - Customized Carrying - Adjust the height and angle your holster rides at for the perfect position for both concealability and comfort. - Streamlined Design - By making each backer a custom fit for the the gun, we`ve made the ACE-1 more streamlined than ever before! - Right Handed - Designed to be worn inside the waistband from the 3-5 o` €™clock positions for a right handed shooter ## Images ![Black Arch Springfield XD-S 3.3 IWB Hybrid Holster with Adjustable Retention, Holsters ACE-1 - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/31irmcULGqL.jpg) ![Black Arch Springfield XD-S 3.3 IWB Hybrid Holster with Adjustable Retention, Holsters ACE-1 - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/41BtOXIb0tL.jpg) ![Black Arch Springfield XD-S 3.3 IWB Hybrid Holster with Adjustable Retention, Holsters ACE-1 - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/41atYDiTGTL.jpg) ![Black Arch Springfield XD-S 3.3 IWB Hybrid Holster with Adjustable Retention, Holsters ACE-1 - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/414f7YlNYyL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 45 a few weeks ago and love the gun *by M***D on Reviewed in the United States on June 24, 2016* I just purchased my XDS .45 a few weeks ago and love the gun. I am a skinny guy (140lbs), and it has been very hard for me to comfortably conceal a firearm. About the only way that I could comfortably carry was to grab my Kahr .380 and a pocket holster (which sucks with blue jeans, but fine with dress slacks and guess what, I can't carry at work).Anyways, prior to this, I had tried using the versa carry, and the clip draw as well as a few others. Just very unconfortable, couldn't sit down with it or anything. Then I got to thinking to myself....All of these holsters I've tried I have been thinking smallest as possible, on these holsters, the gun was sitting against my skin. I thought, I wonder about getting something like this that has leather against your skin.Well, I am glad that I did! This is the most comfortable holster that I have tried yet! I am very satisfied with the holster and I am really excited that I can start carrying and getting used to the extra weight and feel of carrying a firearm. Prior to this, I would only carry when I felt like I "might" need it rather than carrying it daily like you should. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ SHFT Gear (Black Arch Holsters) is a very good IWB holster for a small frame person. *by D***O on Reviewed in the United States on July 9, 2016* I spent a week researching for a IWB holster. Bought another brand that had a good rating, but returned it after trying it on.The SHFT Gear (Black Arch Holsters) is what people say. After a week of breaking you don't even notice wearing it. I have a small frame so it is harder to conceal any weapon. I opted to carry the Springfield XDS as I could never hide the Sig 226. I have some "fat" pants that are 1 and 2 inches bigger. What is amazing I'm able to wear this holster even with my now 30" pants by using the optional leather straps and putting the SHFT on without the XDS holstered then tucking it in. The perfectly design holster allows your body to confirm to the holster even with tight fitting jeans. This just adds to concealing the XDS while wear just a normal T-shirt. Not many carries can conceal wearing a t-shirt.Buy this holster you have nothing to lose with a great company and Amazon's return policyEdit 1/17/2017:I purchased the wrong application I bought the XD-S but have a XD with 3.3" barrel. SHFT (Black Arch Holsters) gladly exchanged the holster free of charge.After wearing this for 6 months it's hard to believe the fit getting any better. Just like a baseball glove the more you use it the better it feels. The only additional tip I have is after you determine the final position of the mount, use a "little" Blue Loctite on the screws. I didn't use Red Loctite just in case I wanted to rotate the gun position. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Close to perfect. *by _***_ on Reviewed in the United States on May 24, 2016* This holster is almost perfect. it's comfortable (I'm average sized), conceals very well, and I can use it in pretty much any attire. The only, and I emphasize, only downside is the weapon retention isn't amazing. It is adjustable and you can really clamp down the screws but there isn't that satisfying 'click' in and out that other holsters I've used have. I wouldn't wear this if I were running an obstacle course during an earthquake but for most regular situations this is perfectly adequate for retaining your firearm. For running, jumping, or diving and rolling it feels safe enough. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/73505168-black-arch-springfield-xd-s-3-3-iwb-hybrid-holster](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/73505168-black-arch-springfield-xd-s-3-3-iwb-hybrid-holster) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-07-23*
