Holster Review: Diva Sleeve

Good morning friends! I truly appreciate all of the amazing comments I have gotten from yesterday's post! It came straight from my heart and I am so happy that it touched yours. 

I want to review another new product for women today, especially women who carry concealed...the Diva Sleeve. Created right here at home in Weathorford, TX; this is a company close to this Texas girl's heart.

Before I start with the review I want to make a statement that is purely my PERSONAL opinion. I do not teach or enjoy purse carry. There are SO MANY options now for ladies to carry on their body, no matter what they are wearing. I would rather carry on my body. I would like for everyone to carry on their body for safety. If you MUST purse carry for personal reasons, then your firearm must be protected, and for that purpose, this product is what you're looking for.

Construction: The Diva Sleeve is made of quality leather and crafted well. The leather work on this particular model is hand tooled and stained. It is beautiful and feminine. I love it! I would also recommend perhaps a future model with a belt clip on it so that it could be worn IWB or OWB.

The thick, durable leather will help to prevent your firearm from getting lint, dust and debris build-up from purse/pocket carry. It will also prevent wear and scratching from these methods of carry as well.

Comfort: Since it is not an on-the-body holster, there really isn't any comfort/discomfort to evaluate. It is light enough; however, to comfortably fit into a coat pocket for winter carry.  
Gun Ride: My LCP with CT fits perfectly into this holster.
Concealability: Since it is made for purse carry, it conceals perfectly. It also works very well, as I said before, in a coat or jacket pocket.
Price: The $65 price tag on most models and the option to design your own make this a product worth buying. With the quality and beauty of the holster, it serves to be a product that will last as a valuable asset for a long time.
Ordering/Customer Service:  Ordering is done primarily online. There is no phone number listed on the website, but by using the "Contact Us" page, you may send an email. In my experience, emails are answered quickly and service is great!
If you carry in your purse or pocket, this is a product I would definitely recommend giving a try.

UPDATE: I was notified by Diva Sleeve that they DO have a clip option available for carrying in the purse or IWB. They are ALSO designing a strap option for safer on the belt carry! Thanks Diva Sleeve!!
Disclosure of Material Connection: I received this holster free from the manufacturer. I was not required to write a positive review. The opinions I have expressed are my own. I am disclosing this in accordance with the Federal Trade Commission’s 16 CFR, Part 255 : “Guides Concerning the Use of Endorsements and Testimonials in Advertising.”
