Best Appendix Holster?

I'm looking for a different holster for my Glock 43. I use appendix carry and I'm currently using a Vedder Light Tuck. I'm just curious to see if there's anything else more comfortable and still does a good job of concealing.
 
I cannot say if this maker will be more comfortable. I think they make outstanding holsters and this one would be the best choice. @KickinNDishin has the same for her G43, and I have a few for other pistols, as well as some of their other holsters. A few I have had for over a decade.
 
I was going to pop in here to suggest the Vedder Light Tuck, but you already have that. Appendix carry is most definitely a highly personal thing. After thinking that I would never, ever be able to appendix carry comfortably, the magic combo for me has been Sig P365, Vedder Light Tuck, Nexbelt, and wearing pants with a high enough rise.
 
I’ve been using the Tier 1 Axis Elite for a couple years. Comfortable and conceals well.
 
I have a box full of holsters for G19, G43 and P320s. Current favorite for my G43 is the Eclipse brand. Works in pants or gym shorts. I think it is the Delta model without the wing.
I really like the Cover six gear single point. By far the most comfortable. I just don’t use it because if you draw you are not getting the gun back in the holster very easily.
Not appendix carry, but the Ivory holster with the quick clips allow the best range of motion through the hips. I really like it for mid/full size guns, but it’s probably overkill for a G43.
Good luck.
 
i didn't care for the light tuck. have my g43x in a tulster aiwb and the combo is just about perfect.
 
To follow up, I’ve carried concealed for 3 decades now and I tried several times to carry appendix IWB, but never found one that was comfortable.

That changed with JM Custom Kydex and it is now my preferred method to carry. Also, a good belt is very important in this equation; not too rigid which is counterintuitive.

Another counterintuitive point, the longer the AIWB the holster the more comfortable. Short holsters tend to fold over when pressured by a food blister. And get the foam pad and wing. They help with position and comfort.
 
Another vote for JM Custom Kydex! In addition to well thought out holsters, Tony is also a totally first class guy!
 
I've used the Bravo Concealment Torsion for g43 and g17, Tier 1 Axis Slim for p365xl + TLR6, and the new modular Trex Sidecar for p365xl + TLR7sub. I would buy another $150 T1 before I bought another $30 Bravo. Of the three I think the Trex takes the cake, personally, because of the modularity. Both it and the T1 are extremely comfortable and are equals other than the modularity aspect of the Trex.
