What do you carry?
Two sizes to compare
Compact pistols like the Glock 19 fit the Deluxe or the Monster. The Monster gives more coverage. The choice is yours.
Weapon light or sidecar mag carrier? The Deluxe or the Monster covers it; the Monster is made for extra-wide sidecars.
Just want minimal wedging with added comfort, or to reduce a hotspot along the beltline? See the Mini ($20)
For larger body frames we recommend sizing up: a larger pillow can always be made to feel smaller by taking some fill out, but a smaller pillow can't be made to feel bigger.
Not sure? Tell us your gun, holster and carry position and we'll help you choose.

What Is the Cloudster Pillow?
The Cloudster Pillow is a soft, adjustable-fill memory-foam holster wedge that attaches with velcro to the back of any IWB or appendix holster. It tilts the grip in to stop printing and cushions the holster edge. It comes in four sizes from $20 to $45, chosen by your gun and holster, in White, Camo and Dark. It has 500+ reviews at a 4.99 average, it’s made in the USA, and it’s backed by a lifetime warranty and free 30-day returns. See how it compares to other holster wedges →
What Is a Holster Wedge?
A holster wedge is a small cushion that attaches to the body side of an IWB or appendix holster and tilts the grip inward — which is what reduces printing and takes the pressure off the spots a holster tends to dig into. People call it a few different things: a holster pillow, a CCW pillow, a concealed carry pillow, an appendix carry pillow, an appendix pillow, a tactical pillow, a wedge. Same item. Every size, color and bundle is on the shop page. Comparing it with a flat pad? See holster pad vs wedge.
The Cloudster Pillow takes the standard holster wedge a step further. Instead of a one-piece foam or rubber block, the Cloudster Pillow is filled with shredded cooling-gel memory foam you can add or remove to dial in the exact thickness your body and holster require. The breathable fabric cover stays soft against your skin all day.
Works with any IWB or AIWB holster, including PHLster Enigma, Tenicor, Tier 1 Concealed, Alien Gear, Vedder, Black Arch, and Crossbreed. Available in 4 sizes (Mini, Standard, Deluxe, Monster) starting at just $20 with free shipping on orders over $35.

Replaced my Mastermind Tactics pillow
“I finally got around to utilizing the cloudster with my 365 Xmacro Tacops. Started out with wedges, upgraded to the mastermind pillow and think I’m done searching after using the cloudster pillow. The material the pouch is made of (bamboo) is super soft and comfortable.
Usually I develop a hotspot after a long period of appendix carrying, especially in the car. Not bashing my mastermind pillow, it’s fine, but that bamboo cover of the cloudster makes it feel like I’m not carrying at all. I’m going to order the larger version for my 2011 for my fall/ winter carry. I really recommend anyone on the fence to try this. Skip the foam wedges altogether.”

Much nicer than anything I have tried!!!!!
“I’ve been using the Cloudster Pillow with a few of my Tenicor holsters, and I was positive they couldn’t get any more comfortable-until now. If you’re looking for unparalleled comfort while carrying AIWB, the Cloudster Pillow is a game-changer. This product delivers the perfect balance of cushioning and support, making concealed carry feel almost effortless. It fits snugly between the holster and your body, reducing pressure and eliminating hotspots, even during extended wear. The design is sleek, low-profile, and incredibly effective-almost like it’s not even there. Whether you’re sitting, standing, or moving around, the Cloudster Pillow ensures your AIWB holster stays comfortable and secure. It’s a must-have for anyone serious about comfort and concealment. If you’re serious about comfort and concealment, this is a must-have addition to your setup.”

Best pillow on the market
“The Cloudster is by far the best pillow system I have used to date! The Mastermind Tactics pillow was/is a great idea, but the Cloudster is a wonderful evolution of that idea. I seriously can’t recommend it enough, it tends to form over your holster and the comfort level is way better than anything else i’ve used.”

How It Works
Set up in under 5 minutes. No tools. No guesswork.
1
Choose Your Size
Pick from Mini, Standard, Deluxe, or Monster based on your carry style and holster. Not sure? Size goes by your gun and holster; see the size guide.
2
Attach to Your Holster
Wipe the body side of your holster with the included alcohol wipe, peel the backing off the loop strip and press it on, then press the pillow onto the strip. An extra loop strip is included, so the pillow can move between prepped holsters.
3
Dial In Your Fit
Add or remove shredded foam fill through the opening until the wedge angle feels perfect. Carry comfortably all day — then fine-tune any time.
💡 Tip
Start fully packed, then remove small amounts over a few days of carry until the angle feels perfect.
What comes in the box: every Cloudster Pillow ships filled with shredded cooling gel memory foam, plus one extra bag of fill (the Monster comes with two extra bags), an extra loop strip so the pillow can move between prepped holsters, an alcohol wipe to clean your holster before attaching the velcro, instructions for setup, use and care, and a Cloudster Pillow sticker.

What size should I order?
Size goes by your gun and holster. Full-size pistols like the Glock 17 fit the Deluxe or the Monster. The Monster gives more coverage. Compact pistols like the Glock 19 fit the Deluxe or the Monster. The Monster gives more coverage. Subcompact pistols like the Glock 43X fit the Standard or the Deluxe; take out some fill for a slimmer profile. The Deluxe gives more coverage. Micro-compact pistols like the Sig P365 fit the Standard or the Deluxe without a light; take out some fill for a slimmer profile. The Deluxe gives more coverage. The Mini is for minimal wedging with added comfort: mag carriers, tourniquet pouches, smaller gear on a duty belt, or to reduce or eliminate hotspots along the beltline. See the size guide, or tell us your gun, holster and carry position and we’ll help you choose. Many carriers order a bundle to have multiple sizes for different holsters.
How do I attach it to my holster?
Wipe the body side of your holster with the included alcohol wipe, peel the backing off the loop strip and press it on, then press the pillow onto the strip. An extra loop strip is included, so the pillow can move between prepped holsters.
How do I adjust the thickness?
Open the hook-and-loop closure on the fabric cover and add or remove the shredded cooling-gel memory foam inside. Start fully packed, then remove small amounts over a few days of carry until the angle feels perfect. The fill can be replenished with our replacement foam fill.
How do I wash the Cloudster Pillow?
Take all the foam fill out first, then hand wash the cover only, in lukewarm water with mild soap, and let it air dry completely. Once it’s dry, put the fill back in; if it looks flat, close it securely and give it 5–10 minutes in the dryer on regular heat to re-fluff. Never put the pillow in the washing machine — a washer breaks the memory foam down. Full details are on our care instructions page.
What is your return policy?
Returns are free within 30 days of delivery, even if you have tried it. If you’re not satisfied, contact us at cloudster@cloudsterpillow.com for a refund, exchange or replacement.
