Anyone who carries regularly knows the struggle. One holster for inside-the-waistband. Another for outside-the-waistband. Maybe a third because you bolted a red dot onto your favorite pistol and suddenly nothing fits anymore. Holster drawers across America are packed with good intentions and old purchases.
DeSantis Gunhide seems to have noticed.
The company has rolled out the new Outback 2.0, a redesigned carry system that aims to simplify the equation by giving shooters a single holster capable of both IWB and OWB carry.

Outback 2.0 — Built for Flexibility
The Outback 2.0 is an ambidextrous design built from center-cut steer hide, finished with a durable polyurethane coating, and stitched with contrasting nylon cord. It looks good, holds up to daily abuse and won’t cry if it has to spend the day riding in a truck, on a range belt or under a flannel shirt.
Its tuckable 360-degree clip allows virtually unlimited positioning for IWB carry, and when you want to switch things up, the clip can be removed quickly for OWB use. In that configuration, the twin-slotted pancake design keeps the handgun pulled tight against the body for better concealment and comfort.

Because nobody likes buying a new holster every time they upgrade an optic, the Outback 2.0 is also designed to accommodate many of today’s most popular red dot sights.

Instead of creating a different model for every pistol ever manufactured, which at this point may require its own warehouse, DeSantis offers the Outback 2.0 in three versatile sizes.

The lineup covers: Most small-frame semi-autos, most medium-frame semi-autos and 1911-pattern pistols, and most large-frame semi-autos and small revolvers.
That broad compatibility makes it an attractive option for shooters who rotate carry guns throughout the week.
Proven Heritage, Modern Features
DeSantis Gunhide has long supplied holsters for law enforcement agencies, military personnel and armed citizens, and the Outback 2.0 continues that tradition with a modern, adaptable design.

For shooters looking to streamline their carry setup without sacrificing versatility, the Outback 2.0 checks a lot of boxes. Better yet, it does so without demanding a second mortgage, carrying an MSRP of $55.99.
Which is refreshing, because the only thing growing faster than the cost of gas these days is the average concealed carrier’s holster collection.
