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 almost any IWB or appendix holster. It tilts the grip in to stop printing and cushions the holster edge that digs in when you sit. It comes in four sizes from $20 to $45, chosen by your gun and holster (a Glock 19 takes the Deluxe; a Sig P365 without a light takes the Standard), in White, Camo and Dark. It has about 480 reviews at a 4.99 average, it’s made in the USA by a small family business, and it’s backed by a lifetime warranty and free 30-day returns.

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 tactical pillow, an appendix pillow, a holster pillow, a wedge. Same item. I go through the whole thing properly on the holster wedge page.
The Cloudster Pillow takes the standard holster wedge a step further. Instead of a rigid one-piece foam block that flattens out and traps heat, 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 — even in a car during a long commute.
Compatible with virtually every Kydex and hybrid IWB holster on the market, 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
Peel the industrial-strength velcro backing and press firmly onto the body-side panel of your IWB holster. Holds all day, removes cleanly.
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.
💡 Pro Tip from Our Customers
“Start with the foam packed full, carry for a day, then remove small amounts until it feels dialed in. Most people land at about 70% fill.” — Jason R., Verified Buyer

📐 Size Guide
| Size | Dimensions | Best For |
|---|---|---|
| Mini | 3.5″ × 3″ | Narrow holsters & minimal setups |
| Standard | 4″ × 3.5″ | Common IWB & appendix holsters (Sig P365, no light) |

Will the Cloudster Pillow fit my holster?
Yes. The Cloudster Pillow attaches with industrial-strength hook-and-loop velcro to the body-side panel of any IWB holster — Kydex, hybrid, or leather. If your holster has a flat or slightly textured back panel, it will work. Compatible with PHLster Enigma, Tenicor, Tier 1 Concealed, Alien Gear, Vedder, CrossBreed, Black Arch, and most popular IWB holsters on the market.
What size should I order?
Size goes by your gun and holster: a Glock 19 takes the Deluxe and a Sig P365 without a light takes the Standard. The Mini suits narrow holsters, the Standard common IWB and appendix holsters, the Deluxe full-size and light-bearing holsters, and the Monster extra-wide sidecars. See the size guide, or tell us your gun and holster and we’ll recommend one. Many carriers order a bundle to have multiple sizes for different holsters.
How do I attach it to my holster?
Peel the velcro backing and press firmly onto the body-side panel of your IWB holster for 30 seconds. It holds securely all day and removes cleanly without residue. You can reposition as many times as needed to find the ideal placement angle.
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 is washable and 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?
We offer free 30-day returns. If you’re not completely satisfied, contact us at cloudster@cloudsterpillow.com and we’ll make it right with a refund, exchange, or replacement — no questions asked.
