"Receiving the Holster of the Year award from Guns & Ammo is a tremendous honor for Safariland," said Eric Gasvoda, GM of Duty Gear for Safariland. "On behalf of both Safariland and the team at Haley Strategic Partners, we are thrilled to receive this prestigious award as it further validates our combined commitment to provide innovative and reliable products to the concealed carry community."

Each year, Guns & Ammo celebrates the best in firearms, ammunition, optics, gear, and innovation. The winners in each category are chosen based on their exceptional quality, reliability, widespread availability, and affordability. The IncogX IWB Holster stood out for its outstanding performance and value to customers.

"The IncogX holster is a vetted collaboration that reflects Travis Haley's brilliant concept, now evolved to accept present-day pistol configurations, a spare magazine, and support concealed-carry tactics. Safariland's state-of-the-art manufacturing capabilities enhanced the holster design while keeping it affordably attainable for the law-abiding users interested in inside-the-waistband carry," said Eric R. Poole, Editor-in-Chief of Guns & Ammo. "Two respected names came together, shared their experience and reputations, producing one of the most important EDC holsters of our time. For its quality, innovation, features, and dependability, the Safariland IncogX decisively won Guns & Ammo's Holster of the Year award."
