Any women with concealed carry permits?

My wife carries, and right now she just puts the weapon in the inside pocket of her jacket. This will work till it gets warmer. We got her a photographers vest the other day. Similar to the tactical jacket linked above, but not specifically designed for CCW. Also only cost $18 instead of $60. She wants to try one of the belly bands but haven’t decided which one yet. For comparison she carries a Springfield Arms XD subcompact 9mm.

When I finally get around to getting my CCW I will probably wear a vest with a shoulder harness. I sit too much, and the inside the pants holsters are just not comfortable for me.

I have a CCW. I usually just leave it in my car, but when I carry I throw it in my purse during low-stress daytime situations and during high stress or dangerous situations, I put it in my back waistband (yes, I laugh about accidentally shooting myself in the butt one day :eek: ). I carry a S&W silver hammerless featherweight .38 special for the record.

I was thinking about it while running this morning - that’s one time when I really would like to carry concealed, and it seems like the most pain in the ass thing to do. I mean, I’m wearing all this specially-purchased clothing to reduce chafing and weight and wick sweat away efficiently and everything, and carrying a gun would completely screw that up. Is there anything designed specifically for that? Particularly the sweat-wicking. Also, I don’t see how it could be done without printing, as the sweat wicking part doesn’t work well without fitted garments. Surely somebody does it, though?
