Pocket Holster FAQs
What is the best pocket holster for concealed carry?
The best pocket holster depends on your firearm and how you carry. The DeSantis Nemesis is one of the most popular pocket holsters on the market. It fits a wide range of pocket pistols, stays locked in your front pocket with its rubberized exterior, and gives you a smooth draw thanks to the slick pack cloth interior.
For extra concealment, the Super Fly adds a removable flap that completely breaks up the shape of your firearm, making it a top choice for those who want zero printing in jeans, shorts, or cargo pants.

Will a pocket holster work in skinny jeans or tight pants?
It depends on the size of your pocket pistol and the cut of your pants. Smaller autos and compact revolvers like the S&W J Frame or Ruger LCR pocket carry well in most pants, including slimmer cuts. A soft pocket holster like the Nemesis uses a foam core that keeps the profile thin.
For tighter pants pockets, the Super Fly's flap helps disguise the shape so your handgun looks more like a wallet or phone. Cargo pants and shorts with deeper pockets offer even more room for comfortable pocket carry.

Do DeSantis pocket holsters cover the trigger guard?
Yes. Every DeSantis pocket holster fully covers the trigger guard area to prevent anything from pressing the trigger while holstered. This is a non-negotiable part of our holster design. Your firearm stays safe in your pocket until you draw it and establish a firing grip with your fingers in the right position.
What is the difference between the DeSantis Nemesis and the Super Fly?
The Nemesis is the original DeSantis soft pocket holster, built with a rubberized exterior, slick pack cloth interior, and a foam core that breaks up the shape of your pistol. The Super Fly takes that same proven design and adds a more viscous exterior texture and a removable, reversible flap that covers the full outline of your firearm for maximum concealment.
Both are ambidextrous and designed for front pocket and back pocket carry. The Super Fly is the upgrade for anyone who wants the most printing protection possible.

Can I carry a mag pouch or ammo pouch with a DeSantis pocket holster?
Yes. DeSantis offers the Cargo Nemesis & Ammo Nemesis, which include an attached mag pouch for carrying a spare magazine right alongside your pocket pistol. For revolver shooters, a DeSantis Swift Strip carried in your opposite pocket is a simple way to keep extra ammo accessible.
DeSantis also offers standalone mag pouches like our Mag Packer and ammo carriers in our accessories collection to round out your everyday carry setup.
