[SHOT 2026] Falco Holsters New Hybrids & Upgrades The Timeless Series
Falco Holsters announced updates to their Timeless series leather holsters at SHOT Show 2026 alongside two new hybrid IWB designs currently in development. The Timeless line already dominates their sales, and Falco's doubling down with reinforcement upgrades aimed at retention and durability.
NOTE: I was told the strawberry and pineapple holsters were basically just for funzies and that “who knows” as far as ever actually producing and selling them.
The updated Timeless series adds internal leather reinforcement in critical areas. Falco's targeting spots that see the most stress during draw and reholster cycles. The Timeless line fits over 3,000 pistol and revolver models with optics-ready channels and full grain Italian leather construction. Falco hand-dyes, oils, and lacquers each holster at their European facility, then double-stitches high-stress zones to prevent deformation. Every Timeless holster already features steel-reinforced thumb breaks and reinforced mouth openings for one-handed reholstering.
Falco's first unnamed hybrid design flips the traditional leather-outside approach. This IWB holster uses kydex for the gun-contact surface while wrapping full grain Italian leather on the exterior body-side panel. The goal is comfort against your body without sacrificing the rigid retention kydex provides. Traditional all-kydex IWB holsters can dig into your side during extended carry, which this design addresses with soft leather where it counts.
The second hybrid takes a different route for shooters worried about holster wear on finishes. This IWB model uses cowhide for the interior gun-contact panels. The exterior construction remains kydex, but Falco emphasized this holster is intended to protect collectible, high-end, or just beloved pistols from the scratching that may come with daily carry.
Both hybrid designs remain unnamed and don't have confirmed release dates. Falco indicated these are moving beyond prototype stage.
Beyond the new holster designs, Falco's currently testing hydrodipping applications for their current kydex products. If testing proves successful, Falco plans to release hydro-dipped holster options in the future.
Pricing wasn't announced for either the updated Timeless series or the two hybrid holsters in development. I would assume the Timeless series would either remain the same or have a minimal increase.
Are you more interested in the reinforced Timeless upgrades, the hybrid designs for comfort and finish protection, or the potential hydro-dipped patterns? Let us know your thoughts in the comments below.
