What Is a Holster Wedge?
A holster wedge is a foam or rubber pad that attaches to the back of an IWB holster, angling the grip into the body for better concealment and comfort. The Cloudster Pillow holster wedge uses adjustable shredded cooling gel memory foam with a breathable fabric cover, letting you customize thickness for all-day appendix or strong-side carry without hot spots or pressure points.
Cloudster Pillow Camo Holster Wedge
The Cloudster Pillow Camo Series IWB holster wedge offers rugged style and unmatched comfort, made from 100% cotton flannel brushed on both sides for a plush, ultra-soft feel. This absorbent, durable fabric ensures long-lasting performance, while the high-quality camo print adds a bold, tactical touch. Available in Mini, Standard, and Deluxe sizes, the Camo Series fits any holster setup. The Mini is perfect for narrow holsters and small attachments, the Standard works for most holsters from subcompacts to full-size, and the Deluxe provides maximum support for larger holsters or wider setups. With its soft, absorbent cotton and stylish camo design, the Camo Series is the perfect blend of comfort, durability, and functionality.
Are Holster Pillows Better Than Foam Wedges for Concealed Carry?
For most carriers, a pillow is the better choice. The Cloudster Pillow’s adjustable memory-foam fill lets you set how much it tilts the grip in, and it stays soft where the holster presses against you. Firm foam wedges hide the gun but don’t cushion it. Choose foam only if you want a fixed, very low-profile spacer.
The Cloudster Pillow Camo is an adjustable holster pillow with a 100% cotton flannel cover. Here’s how this style of wedge compares to a typical fixed-foam wedge.
| Feature | Cloudster Pillow Camo | Typical Foam / Rubber Wedges |
|---|---|---|
| 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 | 100% cotton flannel cover | 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 |
What Carriers Say About the Cloudster Pillow
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Jose G. — Charlotte, NC: “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. 10/10.”
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Joe C. — Ranger, GA: “Just now changing to appendix carry after 30+ years of strong side carry and the Cloudster on my Tier1 holster has made the switch easy. Very good design, like the ability to adjust fill for comfort.”

Main setup is a p365XL with TLR7sub and Holosun scs Carry with 2x15rd mags in a Tier 1 APX holster aiwb. Tried a bunch of wedges and never felt great. I am moving to Slimfit Carnex holsters and I find them more comfortable with a slightly thinner profile. Decided to try the standard cloud pillow on the Tier 1 holster first as that has been uncomfortable so far and just got thru day 1 all day carry. I use a Nexbelt and highly highly recommend them as well. So far, the pillow setup really does make a lot of difference. I haven’t messed with adjusting any stuffing yet. Going to try to take some out and see how slim I can get it while still being comfortable. So far. I like it a lot and will probably get 1 more after I try it a week or 2.
I just received my pillow yesterday and I have to say, I’m really impressed! Not only was this the fastest online delivery I have received but it transformed my new Tenicor Certum 4 holster into something that I will actually use.
I appreciate the effort you put into your product and it’s great quality.
I just wanted to let you know that I’m satisfied and happy I found your YouTube channel.
I love the pillow. It is a simple yet brilliant concept that makes it very comfortable.
I purchased the standard size in the bamboo fabric.
All day comfort is now a very real thing.
I am running a Walther PDP 4″ Compact in a Tenicor Certum 3 IWB holster.
I would highly recommend Cloudster and will be back to purchase more.
The comfort that this gives you, especially when crouching or sitting, can’t be praised enough. I’ve been appendix carrying for 5+ years. I’ve never felt this agile. I always caught myself avoiding crouching or picking anything up off the ground. Not anymore. I sometimes forget I have it on me. On top of the comfort, the pillow pushes the grip in and makes you print even less. If you are thinking about buying one, just do it. You will not regret it.
This is a must-have for AIWB carry. I have an anterior pelvic tilt and my stomach combined with the weight of a loaded mag pushes the gun grip outwards, causing unwanted printing. The pillow keeps the gun oriented straight up and down, as opposed to angled 45 degrees outwards above your belt. Super comfortable to wear and now I can carry the guns I want (G19, G45) without printing. Comes with extra foam so you can add or remove foam to get your desired fit.
I’m really liking the cloudster so far. It has made my edc exceptionally comfortable, especially considering I’m running a large light. Thanks for making a kick ass and affordable product.
The pillow materials are very comfortable! Stitches are strong, an so is the glue side of the Velcro provided. Pads n tucks the holster nicely n comfortably in. Also Awesome & personal assistant from Keith! Thank you, the pillows are made with love and it shows.
