I used a CB supertuck with my Taurus 24/7 and it was super comfortable - I have recently become a 1911 convert and bought a Kholster for it. I liked the amount of adjustability available on the Kholster vs CB or Minotaur as I occasionally like to carry cross draw and the cant changes significantly compared to my normal strong side 3:30 carry. I received my Kholster yesterday and wore it around before deciding where I wanted to trim off excess leather (does not void the warranty by the way which is a super nice feature!). After trimming it I then used some neatsfoot oil which penetrates leather to soften it. once dry I used a leather waterproofing conditioner on the back (skin) side and all around the edges paying extra attention to the areas where I trimmed. I didn't NEED to do any of this but being in the business of making custom horse tack and breaking in numerous saddles over the years I have learned that it cuts down break in time significantly. My Kholster is now as comfortable as if I had been wearing it daily for months - definitely worth a little time and elbow grease ;) I may trim it a bit more down the road but it is now so comfortable that I really don't need to.
