Every GUD bag and backpack is designed so you can keep everything you need close by throughout the day. For some, that might be a laptop or a camera. For others, it’s important to have a weapon within reach. The Holster started a new direction for us: the Utility Line, a collection of tactical bags, backpacks, and tourniquet pouches.
Holster is a waist or crossbody bag made for daily use, but it stands out for one key reason. Along with space for your essentials like documents, a phone, or a multitool, it has a special compartment for carrying a concealed firearm, such as a Glock 19–sized pistol.
Carrying a concealed weapon is about being responsible and staying in control. The Holster bag is designed to keep your firearm secure and hidden from view. This helps lower risks and lets you stay calm and confident, no matter the situation.
Tactical Experience in Everyday Products
We have years of experience making tactical gear and use technologies proven in real combat. This expertise is the foundation for the Holster bag and the rest of the Utility Line.
From the early days of the ATO (since 2014), GUD has answered requests from volunteer groups by making gear for the military. We started with medical pouches, assault shield covers, and dump pouches. Since 2022, after the full-scale invasion began, we have focused on making equipment for the National Guard and volunteer units. During critical shortages, GUD supplied plate carriers, magazine pouches, IFAK kits, sapper organizer bags, and other essential gear to the front lines.
Tactical gear needs to be safe, easy to use, mobile, and efficient. We used this same approach when creating the Holster bag, making it durable, well-built, and simple enough for everyday use.
Holster works great as an everyday carry bag. It easily fits your essentials like documents, wallet, keys, phone, glasses, and even personal protective equipment. Its slim shape lets you wear it under a jacket, keeping both the bag and your items hidden.
Material Features
The Utility Line is built for everyday durability and tactical strength. Holster uses tough Cordura 1000D fabric with a double PU coating, making it highly resistant to wear and tear. You can choose from two colors: practical black or tactical sand, so there’s an option for different styles and needs.
Cordura was originally developed in the United States in the mid-20th century to meet the military’s demand for extremely durable fabrics for clothing and gear. It replaced cotton canvas thanks to its significantly greater durability, abrasion and tear resistance, and water resistance. Over time, Cordura became a staple not only in military gear but also in outdoor, tactical, and urban equipment, earning a reputation as a reliability standard for intensive daily use. It is also dirt-resistant, so the Holster is easy to clean and can be machine washed.
Some parts of the bag use X-Pac laminated sailcloth, a high-tech, multi-layer fabric first made for sailing and now used in tactical, outdoor, and urban gear. It’s very strong and durable, yet lightweight and keeps its shape well.
The bag’s thermoplastic hardware is tough, resists wear, and stays strong even in cold weather while remaining flexible. Heavy-duty zippers with reinforced backing last a long time and resist abrasion. Reinforced seams, smart construction, and practical details mean the bag is built for years of daily use, whether in the city or while traveling.
Ergonomics and Everyday Capacity
Even though it holds just 3 liters, the Holster has four outside pockets and three inside pockets to help you organize your essentials. The main strap is adjustable and has a quick-release buckle, so you can wear it around your waist or across your body. The front panel has a Velcro area for patches, letting you personalize your bag. There’s also a hidden zippered pocket on the back to keep your most valuable items, like documents or cash, safe and out of sight.
The special compartment for a concealed firearm works for both right- and left-handed users. It safely holds a pistol about the size of a Glock 19. The bag also comes with a removable internal holster to keep your weapon secure inside.
You can trust that your belongings are safe in any GUD bag or backpack. We build our products with extra strength to make sure they do their job every time. All our products come with a two-year warranty.
We designed the Holster waist/crossbody bag for real-life use, so it’s comfortable to wear for long periods, gives you quick access, and keeps your items secure. It’s a practical tool that makes daily life easier, made for people who want to trust their gear. On the outside, Holster looks simple and understated, while on the inside, it’s built for everyday use. We made this product with respect for everyone who depends on it.
