Galco ankle glove for sure. Works great for a j-frame IMO.

I always liked the renegade ankle holster for my j frame. Might pick up the wilderness version since renegade is no longer around. So my vote is for that

I wear an ankle holster for my jframe when no other practical option is there for what I'm wearing. I had an ankle glove but found that it moved more than I would have liked and to get it tight enough to stay put it felt like it was cutting off circulation. I have since ditched the ankle glove and got an Alessi which is not as low profile, but is noticeably more comfortable and more stable and does not shift.

I attribute the Galco being more low profile to it being just the neoprene where the Alessi strap is thicker. I would not go back to the Galco after using the Alessi.

Skip Ritchie ( Ritchie gunleather) he worked with the legendary Lou alessi prior to his death and his ankle rigs are top notch expensive but worth every penny - was carrying my j frame today with one made in the alessi shop in the 1970's and it still works perfectly.

Please report back on your thoughts. I'm interested in trying one for my Shield, also.

I have always used some kind of galco. I have used the ankle lite the most, but recently got an ankle glove for a walther ppk. I tried a bianchi but it wasn't as comfortable (thought it was for a steel frame officers 1911 so that could be why). I have always wanted to try a 5 shot or alessi but never wanted to wait.

I have packed a S&W 442, Walther PPK, Ruger LCR and a Glock 26 in the galcos. All were comfortable and worn for 12-18 hours a day.

Galco Ankle Glove is the answer for me. I even tried an Alessi for a while and went back to the Galco. I found the Galco to be more comfortable and concealed better.

Another nod for the Renegade by Wilderness. Comfort, security, decent price.

Another option, which is based on the now defunct Renegade Holster and Leather Company "Cozy Partner." http://www.thewilderness.com/ankle-h...ankle-holster/

As a testament to how much I trust you, I just ordered one. Looks good. Having the mindset carry a gun you'll always carry, my EDC is an LCP. This ankle holster will be for my G43. I haven't carried anything down there (ankle) since I used to shove a Detective Special in the top of a Wellington boot. I'll have some feedback in a week or so. Thanks for the recommendation, I think it will turn oput to be a winner.
