How to Choose Your Size
The right Cloudster Pillow depends on your setup — not a one-size rule. Before you pick, think through your body shape and size, whether you carry on a male or female frame, the size of your firearm, how many attachments you run (spare mag pouches, carriers, lights), your holster type, and your carry position (appendix, strong-side, and so on). Read each size below and match it to your setup.
Still deciding? Measure where the pillow will sit on your holster, or grab a bundle to dial in across different setups.

Holster Pillow vs Traditional Foam Wedges
Most holster wedges are solid foam or molded rubber that ship in a single fixed size. The Cloudster Pillow uses adjustable shredded cooling-gel memory foam in a soft fabric cover, so you can dial in the exact thickness your body and holster need.
| Feature | Cloudster Pillow | Typical Foam / Rubber Wedge |
|---|---|---|
| Construction | Shredded cooling-gel memory foam | Solid foam or molded rubber |
| Adjustable fill | Yes — add or remove to dial in thickness | Typically fixed |
| Comfort surface | Soft fabric cover (bamboo on White; cotton on Dark and Camo) | Bare foam or rubber |
| Holster fit | Hook-and-loop Velcro mounts to any flat-back IWB or AIWB holster | Varies; many are adhesive-bonded |
| Size options | 4 sizes (Mini, Standard, Deluxe, Monster) | Typically 1 size |
Most foam and rubber holster wedges ship in a single fixed size with no way to adjust the fill. The Cloudster Pillow’s shredded cooling-gel memory foam can be added or removed at any time, so the same wedge can be tuned across different holsters and carry positions.
What Is a Holster Wedge?
A holster wedge is a foam or rubber attachment that mounts to the back of an IWB holster, angling the grip into the body for better concealment and comfort. Cloudster Pillow’s holster wedge uses medical-grade
foam wrapped in a soft fabric cover to eliminate hot spots, pressure points, and printing during all-day appendix or IWB carry.
What Customers Say About the Cloudster Pillow Holster Wedge
With 400+ verified reviews and a 4.99-star rating, here’s what real concealed carry users say about switching to the Cloudster Pillow:
“Best wedge/pillow on the market. I’ve used Tier 1 Concealed and Mastermind wedges in the past and neither compare to how comfortable
this pillow is and how well it works as a wedge. Great customer service and well worth the money.”“Best wedge option. Wish I would have purchased this sooner. I’ve tried different wedges from Tier1, Vedder, etc and this pillow is the
best by far. The others are hard and uncomfortable when you carry all day, and create pressure points. This pillow is very comfortable due to the material and foam and helps conceal better than the other wedges
I’ve tried. 10/10, will definitely be purchasing another.”
“Best holster wedge. I’ve tried many different wedges and these are the most comfortable and best made. Also, their customer service is
second to none!”
“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.”

Frequently Asked Questions
Find answers to the most common questions about holster wedges, the Cloudster Pillow, sizing, compatibility, and mounting.
What is the difference between a holster wedge and a holster pillow?
A traditional holster wedge is a small rubber or foam piece that angles the grip inward. A holster pillow like the Cloudster Pillow goes further by using medical-grade foam and a soft fabric cover to provide
cushioning and concealment in one attachment.
What is the best wedge for appendix carry?
The Cloudster Pillow is rated 4.9 stars and is considered the best wedge for appendix carry. Its medical-grade foam eliminates hot spots and pressure points during all-day AIWB carry, outperforming rubber
wedges from competitors like Tier 1 Concealed and Vedder.
Does the Cloudster wedge work with a Vedder LightTuck?
Yes. The Cloudster Pillow is designed to fit universal IWB holsters, including the Vedder LightTuck. It attaches securely with Velcro and can be repositioned for optimal comfort and concealment.
Is the Cloudster Pillow better than the Mastermind Tactics wedge?
Many customers who switched from the Mastermind Tactics wedge to the Cloudster Pillow report significantly better comfort. The Cloudster uses medical-grade foam with a soft fabric cover, while Mastermind Tactics
uses a firmer acrylic material. Read the full comparison →
What size Cloudster Pillow do I need?
Cloudster Pillow comes in Mini, Standard, Deluxe, and Monster sizes. The Standard fits most compact handguns, the Deluxe is ideal for full-size pistols, and the Monster provides maximum coverage for larger
setups or extended carry sessions.
How do I mount a Cloudster Pillow on my holster?
The Cloudster Pillow attaches to the back of any IWB holster using industrial-strength Velcro. Simply peel and stick the Velcro to your holster, then press the pillow into place. It can be repositioned as
needed for your preferred carry position. For tips on keeping your pillow in top shape, see our Care Instructions.

Cloudster Pillow
Got my cloud about a week ago and immediately started using it. Extremely comfortable to wear all day for me. It’s way better than any other wedge/pillow Ive used so far.
I carry a S&W Shield X in a Tenicor Certum 4 Lux. It is already a really comfortable holster, but I carry appendix and I wanted to have more cushion because I do my best to carry every day. I’ve looked at other options for some sort of wedge or pillow, but after seeing some reviews on YouTube, I figured I should try what people are saying is the most comfortable pillow wedge.
This pillow does two things for me. It for one makes carrying much more comfortable because of the padding just under my beltline, but it also rotates my iron sights and grip into my body, and that combined with the camming bar on my holster, results from a practically invisible setup. I have to pull my shirt into my body to see any sort of printing, granted I am tall and lean but nevertheless, I love this pillow wedge, and I definitely recommend it to anyone looking at it.
Love the standard size pillow for my g19. Tons of extra fill makes this a great value and it’s super comfortable.
The Hellcat pro isn’t a large pistol but the pillow keeps it tight against my body and definitely improves comfort when I’m stuck on the 405.
Im so so sorry it took me so long to reply, so many things came up but I finally was able to go for a drive and really see how it feels
I have NEVER been on a more comfortable drive while carrying! I do need to adjust the holster a tiny bit still but that has nothing to do with the cloudster pillow! I went for a 3 hour drive straight and it was so comfortable, I was blown away, as being a larger frame individual, its nice being able to comfortably carry while driving. Heres the photo of my rig set up!
Deluxe size pillow after I tried the standard version. Provides incredible comfort from sitting and standing all day in the barbershop with my Phlster Enigma . Best wedge ever and I’ve tried them all!
