Walther PK380 Holsters

Looking for a Walther PK380 holster? Based on the e-mail correspondence I receive, I know a lot of you are. The tough part is that Walther discontinued the PK380. So a firearm that did not have a broad selection of holsters to begin with has even fewer available today.

My goal is to find all of the companies currently making and shipping concealed carry holsters for the Walther PK380 and share them with you here.

If I have missed any, and I likely have, please let me know so I can update this article with the information. Some of the links on this page are affiliate links. All of my opinions are my own and are based on my years of experience in shooting and carrying guns.

Alien Gear

Alien Gear is a fairly modern gun holster maker using a combination of materials for maximum comfort and durability. The company’s designs have been improved over the years, so I recommend checking them out if you have not seen the company’s latest gear.

Cloak Tuck IWB Holster

The Cloak Tuck is the company’s flagship model that is probably its most popular design. What I love about this holster is how it combines comfort with security. The CoolVent neoprene backing feels great against your body, while the steel core provides reliable structure. You can easily adjust the ride height and cant without any tools, which is super convenient for finding your perfect draw position.

The custom-molded shell ensures your Walther stays put but draws smoothly when needed. Plus, the slim design and sweat guard are practical touches that make everyday concealed carry so much more comfortable. The company has sold thousands of this tuckable design and backs it with a five year warranty.

Cloak Belt OWB Holster

I’ve been looking at the Cloak Belt Holster, not something that I realized the company was making, and I’m impressed by what it offers. It’s a thoughtful OWB design that works well for both open carry and concealed carry situations when you have a blazer, light jacket or untucked shirt.

Alien Gear Cloak Belt Holster for PK380 pistol

What I appreciate is how it’s designed to sit high and close to your body on a standard 1.5″ belt. The CoolVent neoprene backing seems like a smart choice – it’s ventilated to reduce moisture and molds to your body shape for better comfort during extended wear. In my opinion, the breathable backer is a lot cooler when wearing than Kydex or leather.

I think the reinforcement is worth noting too. With ballistic nylon and a spring steel core, it’s built to maintain its shape while supporting the PK380 without being overly rigid. The combat cut is particularly useful, allowing for a full firing grip when you need to draw the pistol.

For those concerned about protecting their firearm, the integrated sweat guard is a nice touch that keeps your slide away from direct body contact. Whether you’re carrying for personal protection, law enforcement duties, or training, it’s a reliable holster that doesn’t compromise on Walther’s performance standards.

Cloak OWB Paddle Holster

A lot of shooters like paddle holsters, and I think the Cloak OWB Paddle Holster is a well-designed option for the PK380. It offers what I’d consider a good balance of durability and flexibility for daily carry.

Alien Gear OWB paddle holster for Walther PK380

The paddle rig uses a spring-steel flex plate to provide reliable support while allowing natural movement, which can make a difference during all-day wear. I’m particularly interested in the thermos-elastomer retention membrane that creates that secure click when holstering—it’s a small detail that provides good peace of mind.

The curved paddle design seems to address a common complaint with paddle holsters by fitting more naturally against the body. The open-mouthed design for easier re-holstering makes practical sense, and being able to adjust both the cant and retention pressure lets me fine-tune the holster to my specific preferences.

Drop Leg Tactical Holster

There are not many options for PK380 drop leg holsters. In fact, this is the only one I’ve found that is specifically made for the gun. All of the others are universal-style rigs that work, but they are not ideal.

Alien Gear drop leg holster

Alien Gear designed the rig with two pivot points that allow the holster to move with you. This increases comfort while maintaining a stable platform. The belt loop is rigid and securely mounts on your belt. It is adjustable, so it will work with normal gun belts and duty belts. The rig is only available in black.

Check out additional details on the holster here.

Walther PK380 Belly Band Holster

Belly band holsters are a great option for deep concealment especially when you cannot wear a normal belt. For example, if you are jogging or working out, this might be a good option.

What sets this apart from other belly bands is that Alien Gear uses a fitted holster shell for maximum security. 

Check out all the details on this rig here.

Blackhawk!

Blackhawk does not currently offer any fitted PK380 holsters of any kind. However, the generic Blackhawk nylon holsters will work for people wanting to carry the PK380 and are on a limited budget. 

TecGrip FormLok IWB PK380 Holster

One option that stands out in the Blackhawk lineup is the TecGrip FormLok IWB holster. This CCW rig uses a moldable plastic core with a rubber-like exterior. The moldable core allows you to achieve a solid fit of the carry rig to your pistol – something akin to a Kydex rig.

Blackhawk Tecgrip Formlok moldable holster for Walther PK380

The exterior surface treatment is intended to grip your clothing so you can carry your Walther handgun without the need for a belt. A similar concept is used by Sticky Holsters (and others), but it is not one that I am sold on. While the rigs may be stable for normal use, how well do they retain your pistol if you have to run or wrestle with a non-lethal threat?

I think the quality is pretty good, and the price is certainly affordable. Just test the rig out with an UNLOADED firearm before using it for carry.

For the PK380, you want the Size 6 for compact pistols. See more information on it here.

Inside-the-Pants Clip Holster

This is not a great holster, but it is serviceable and inexpensive (less than $20). If you find yourself tight on money and needing to carry your Walther for personal protection, the Blackhawk Inside-the-Pants holster is an option to consider. 

Blackhawk Inside-the-Pants holster for the Walther PK380

It uses a single plastic belt clip to anchor the soft nylon holster to your belt. The gun is super fast to draw because there is virtually no retention at all. It is very possible that the gun could slip out of the holster if you were to fall down or even when using the restroom. But, if you are tight on money, it is an option. Just be aware of the potential issues.

Size 1 is the correct size for the PK380. Find more information on the holster here.

Ambidextrous, Multi-Use Walther PK380 Holster

This is a fairly basic OWB-style holster made of nylon. Unlike other nylon rigs that collapse when the gun is removed, these have a reinforced structure that keeps the rig open for easy re-holstering. Additionally, the rig has an adjustable strap with a thumb snap to ensure the gun is kept securely until you need it.

Each side of the carry rig has a wide belt loop. This allows you to carry your firearm on either side of your body. On the front of the rig is a single magazine pouch for carrying a spare mag.

While I’m not a fan of this holster, I have met a number of people who have used it. Their opinions were that the holster is a good value – not the best, but for the money, it is a solid choice.

Learn more about the holster here.

Nylon Shoulder Holster

Shoulder holsters are limited for this gun. However, Blackhawk does offer a nylon shoulder rig that will work for your needs. 

The rig rides on your shoulders and carries the gun horizontally with the muzzle facing toward the rear. It anchors to the belt on both sides with belt loops. It’s not the most exciting shoulder holster ever made, but it should work well for you.

Just be sure to get Size 1 (medium) for the PK380. It will fit most people with shirt sizes of Medium through XL. See more on the holster here.

CrossBreed Holsters

CrossBreed Holsters is a high-quality concealed carry rig manufacturer that offers a variety of different options for the Walther PK 380 pistol. The company offers a trial period of two weeks during which you can return if for any reason. 

Here are some of the company’s best carry rigs for your pistol.

SuperTuck IWB Holster

Arguably, the SuperTuck was the holster that made the hybrid design popular for concealed carry. But wait, what is a hybrid holster? A hybrid rig is a design that combines two or more materials to make the major components of a single holster.

CrossBreed SuperTuck holster for the Walther PK 380

Typically, the hybrid holster uses a backer made of leather or other material while the molded shell is made of Kydex, Boltaron or a thermoplastic. When worn, the soft backing material is pressed in by your body to lock the gun into the shell which is molded to the shape of your handgun.

The CrossBreed SuperTuck is an inside-the-waistband style holster that uses a soft leather backer that rides against your skin (or base layer shirt). The backer is fairly wide (see the photo above) which moves the belt clips out and away from each other. This spreads the weight of your gun over a larger area and increases comfort. The clips are metal and very strong.

colors available for CrossBreed holsters

The leather backer can be had in a variety of colors. Likewise, the Kydex shell can also be had in more than a dozen different finishes. 

I like this holster, and I have several for different guns that I own. The pricing is very good for the excellent quality you are getting. See more on the holster here.

MiniTuck IWB Holster

The MiniTuck is a smaller version of the SuperTuck. While I prefer the SuperTuck, a lot of people prefer the MiniTuck as the overall package is a bit smaller. I don’t think either is necessarily “better” than the other. Instead I think it call comes down to your personal preferences.

CrossBreed MiniTuck for Walther PK380 pistol

You can get the MiniTuck in the same colors and finishes that the SuperTuck is offered in. See more on the holster here.

Modular Belly Band Package

Belly bands fit a particular niche – an important one, but a small one. It’s really great that several companies (such as Alien Gear above and CrossBreed) offer these kinds of holsters for Walther PK380 pistols. 

 The CrossBreed Modular Belly Band may be one of the most comfortable holsters for the PK 380 pistol. It is soft and stretchy with an antimicrobial polyester “jersey” outer shell seems like a practical choice for something worn directly against the skin. It’s nice that it maintains its antimicrobial properties for up to 25 hand washes while still offering that soft, smooth feel that conforms to your body.

CrossBreed Modular Belly Band for Walther PK380 handgun

What I particularly value is how they’ve balanced comfort with functionality. The breathable material allows for cooling, which is something I’ve found lacking in other belly bands I’ve tried. The inclusion of anti-slip panels addresses one of my common concerns with this style of carry—keeping everything securely in place during movement.

I appreciate the additional storage options too. Having a dedicated pocket for my phone means one less thing to carry elsewhere, and the two small magazine pockets provide peace of mind for those who prefer to carry spare ammunition or another accessory. It’s these kinds of practical details that make the CrossBreed belly band worth considering for anyone looking for an alternative to traditional holsters.

Learn more about the CrossBreed belly band here.

SnapSlide OWB Holster

I think the SnapSlide offers a thoughtful approach to outside waistband carry for personal protection. What really stands out is it’s designed to keep your firearm positioned close to your body with a higher ride than other rigs tend to offer. This can help keep it concealed and still allow for a fast draw.

SnapSlide OWB holster

The belt slide design uses 1.75″ slots in the leather backer. Based on my testing of this holster with another brand of pistol, it should work well with more common 1.25″ – 1.5″ belts without a lot of movement. 

As with the SuperTuck and MiniTuck, you can choose between leather backers with Black Cowhide, Founder’s Leather, or Natural Tan Horsehide finishes. You can also pick from a number of Kydex colors.

For those looking for an OWB option that doesn’t sacrifice concealability, I think the SnapSlide offers a well-considered balance of accessibility and discretion. Check out the holster here.

Freedom Carry IWB

An IWB-style carry rig, the Freedom Carry Holster is a slim design that offers a comfortable carry experience. It is a hybrid design, but unlike some of the other options from CrossBreed, it uses a single belt clip. It offers good stability without excessive bulk. I find the SuperTuck offers much greater stability, but the Freedom Carry is easier to don.

CrossBreed Freedom Carry IWB holster for Walther PK380

You can carry with the Freedom Carry in multiple positions—appendix, cross draw, or strong side. The straight draw position of the pocket combined with an adjustable cant clip makes sense for accommodating different carry positions.

See more about the Freedom Carry here.

Appendix Carry Holster

While the Freedom Carry (above) can be used for appendix carry (AIWB), I think the better option is the Appendix Carry holster. This is a purpose built carry rig, so it is tailored to midline carry.

Walther PK380 Appendix Carry AIWB holster

As with the other rigs from CrossBreed, this model uses a hybrid design with a leather backer and a Kydex shell. It uses a single belt clip.

Read more on the Appendix Carry holster here.

DropSlide Concealment Holster

The DropSlide is a basic OWB carry rig following many of the style cues from the rest of the CrossBreed catalog. It uses a leather backer with belt slots mated with a Kydex shell. The way the leather backer is cut, the gun rides low which can be good or bad depending on your needs.

CrossBreed DropSlide holster

Even though the design is basic, it is a solidly built holster. If the low ride is what you are looking for, the DropSlide can make a lot of sense for your Walther PK380. Another nice feature is that it is less expensive than some of the other models.

Check it out here.

Purse Defender

Off body carry presents a number of potential problems related to gun security and speed of access, but it can also represent both the best comfort and the ability to more completely conceal your Walther. For purse carry, CrossBreed offers the Purse Defender.

Purse Defender holster Walther PK380 firearm CCW

The Purse Defender is a rigid panel with a Kydex shell for the PK 380 pistol. The two combine for a secure way to carry, and they can be added to many different purses. You are not limited to a purse designed by a holster company.

See the Purse Defender here.

DeSantis Gunhide

The good folks at DeSantis have been making leather holsters for many years. If you need a Walther PK380 holster, you could do a lot worse than looking at this company. Unfortunately, it looks like DeSantis discontinued the bulk of their offerings fitted for the PK380.

Desantis holster for PK380 discontinued

The company still offers a few rigs. My guess is that when the current inventory of these runs out, they may also be listed as discontinued. So buy now if you have any interest in them.

The Insider

The Insider is a simple IWB-style holster. Made of leather, the rig has a single spring steel clip for anchoring it to a belt. The leather is unmolded, which means it is not formed to fit the shape of your Walther. This allows the company to offer these at a lower price, but they will not hold their shape after you draw the gun. 

For the price, I think you are better off looking at the Crossbreed Freedom Carry listed above. You can check out the DeSantis rig here.

SOF-TUCK 2.0

I hate to say it, but the SOF-TUCK 2.0 is not high on my list of CCW rigs. It is made of leather with a polyurethane liner. It is not molded to the shape of the gun, but it does have a reinforced mouth so it doesn’t completely collapse after you pull your pistol. And it is a tuckable design that has a single clip for attaching to your belt.

At more than $50, I think this rig just isn’t as good as the alternatives. Is it bad? No. I just think that there are many other models on the market that are a lot nicer for the money. The CrossBreed Freedom Carry and Appendix Carry (above) are both tuckable designs that I feel offer a much better experience.

Fobus Holsters

At this time, it appears that Fobus discontinued all of its holsters for the PK380.

Gunfighters [INC]

Gunfighters[INC], aka GunfightersINC, is an American company founded for a U.S. Army veteran back in 2010. They offer a range of products – many of them being unique solutions to problems such as carrying a pistol while fly fishing. 

Fair warning, like a lot of holster makers, rigs are made to order. Currently, the company states that products are looking at about 2-4 weeks for delivery once the holster is ordered. Here’s a look at what they offer.

Baba Yaga Ronin

This is a Kydex OWB rig built for the fourth John Wick movie. It has a neutral cant (no tilt) with a high sweat shield and a “battle cut” on the front for a faster draw.

What’s nice about this rig is the multitude of customizations you can order. Things like taller sights and aftermarket magazine releases can be accommodated. See the rigs here.

Spectre Shoulder Holster

Quality shoulder holsters are frequently tough to find. GunfightersINC states they took the classic design back to the drawing board to create a modern interpretation. It uses modern materials for improved performance and comfort.

The rigs carry the pistol in a horizontal format with a double mag pouch on the support side. You can check out the rig here.

High Noon Holsters

The custom leather shop in Tarpon Springs, FL offers many of their holsters fitted for the Walther PK380. Examples include the Slide Guard belt holster, the Tailgunner IWB holster, the Under Taker shoulder holster, and the Speedy Spanky paddle holster.

It looks like that all of the PK 380 options are built to order. I didn’t see any that are “ready to ship” options.

Rounded

Rounded holsters are made by Concealment Express. The rigs are straightforward Kydex rigs that are made in the USA. The company offers a 30 day money back guarantee.

IWB Holster

Made of Kydex, this is a simple rig molded for your Walther. The fit is precise – when you insert the gun, it gives you a positive click that it is seated. It has an adjustable cant and a single belt clip. You can see it here.

Tagua Holsters

Tagua Holsters make good quality leather holsters in Brazil and then they are imported into the United States. I own one for my SIG P226 and have done a review on it here. It is a good holster for the money, and they are offered at very reasonable prices.

At the time of this update, the Tagua website has been down for several days. So, I cannot confirm if Tagua is still making holsters for the Walther PK380. When I get additional information, I will update this page.

Walther Arms

Walther Arms used to offer leather belt slide OWB holsters and IWB holsters for the PK380. After discontinuing the gun, the company sold through its inventory of holsters and moved on.

The leather holsters were available as both right- or left- handed and with or without a thumb break. The company’s IWB rig was a Kydex holster made by L.A.G. Tactical. (And as a side note – I don’t see it listed on the L.A.G. site either.)

It’s unfortunate that Walther no longer offers these CCW rigs as they were comfortable and durable. Further, they were backed by a lifetime warranty. The premium materials seemed to wear well over time. With the thumb break, the leather rigs offered good retention to keep the gun secure in daily activities.

We The People Holsters

We The People Holsters seems to be a relatively new company, and I know little about them. I’m providing their information here as they do make some rigs for the PK 380 pistol. I’m not endorsing them or saying anything negative about them. I simply don’t know enough about them.

Independence Leather IWB

This is a simple inside-the-waistband holster made of leather. We The People Holsters states that rig is a “semi-universal fit” and will work with the PK380. 

We The People Holsters Independence rig for Walther PK380

It uses a single metal clip to attach it to your belt. The company offers it in both brown and black with the company’s distinctive decoration. The company states that the holsters are made in the USA with leather from “American cows.”

I generally shy away from universal fit rigs, but some are pretty good. I’d recommend taking a look for yourself here.
