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.

The Cloudster Pillow White Bamboo Series IWB holster wedge offers enhanced comfort and superior concealment for holsters and attachments. It delivers unmatched comfort and functionality, featuring a plush bamboo fabric for a cloud-like feel and exceptional breathability. Designed to keep you cool, its soft, plush surface enhances comfort while maintaining durability. Available sizes in Mini, Standard, Deluxe and now MONSTER, these pillows cater to a variety of needs. The Mini is perfect for narrow holsters, small attachments like magazines or pepper spray, and works well as a secondary or wedge pillow. The Standard size is ideal for most holsters, from subcompacts to full-size models, providing excellent versatility for everyday use. For larger holsters, light-bearing models, or wider setups, the Deluxe delivers maximum support and coverage. Whether you need compact precision, all-around adaptability, or oversized comfort, the White Bamboo Series combines luxury and performance.

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.”

I was on the verge of giving up with appendix carry. As a new CPL holder, I was REALLY struggling to get any comfort with even a premium holster like the Tier 1 Concealment Axis Elite. Due to my body type I’m sure. I’m thin, with a bit of a belly, so it was pushing the barrel side of the holster into my pelvis, which doesn’t have much cushion. I’ve tried multiple different concealment wedges with no relief, more than just discomfort, it was painful. The Cloudster Pillow is a GAME CHANGER for me. It’s offered me comfort, and concealment.

I am really enjoying the pillow. I am coming from the mastermind tactics and can for sure see a difference. Thanks so much for making a great product. I will tell all of my friends.
Cloudster Pillow White Standard
I am a shorter man with a relatively athletic build. 5’6, 145lbs. My body type makes concealing extremely difficult as I don’t have many valleys and peaks to work with. Because of this, it is nearly impossible to carry without a wedge in most situations where I am not wearing a hoodie or a jacket. I have tried several other options but the Cloudster is by far the most comfortable and effective wedge device I have used. Purchase was simple. Shipping was fast.

The Cloudster Pillow is an absolute game changer. I no longer need to be concerned about the comfort level of any holster. I can now simply pick what has the most adjustability and rest assured I have a solid solution for comfort.
Thank you!
Cloudster Pillow Standard
I have tried various wedges from multiple companies and the Cloudster pillow is by far the most comfortable and most versatile “wedge” for a holster that I have used. The pillow is soft both in firmness and texture The ability to add and remove the filling to customize size, shape and firmness is fantastic. The foam filling is a nice change from the materials used in other pillows of this type. It doesn’t stick to the velcro over time slowly making it unusable. All you need to do to change the direction the “wedge” rotates your holster is to change the location on the velcro strip. So far the velcro attached to the stays just where I put it even if I don’t have the entire strip engaged. Another huge benefit is the fact that I can use these pillows with multiple holsters. I bought extra velcros strips to attach the pillows to other holsters I already own and the ones I will buy in the future. Overall this is a fantastic product and I would recommend it easily.

Happy to!! I have them both on T1C Xiphos elite holster and I want to make it clear… THESE MAKE SUCH A BIG DIFFERENCE! The amount of comfort achieved is night and day, I am a customer for life!

I’ve been carrying appendix for years now. And I’ve struggled with hot spots. I have spent a small fortune on different holsters and every wedge/pad you can think of, even the “top tier” ones. I finally got an axis elite holster and that helped a lot, but still had a hot spot. Then I got the Cloudster Pillow. This thing is a game changer! My setup is now as close to perfect as can be. The Cloudster literally eliminated any and all hot spots.
On top of that, I had a question and used the web sight. Kieth (I think the company owner) responded quickly and answer my question. Awesome customer service, awesome product! If you’re struggling with ccw comfort, do yourself a favor and get a Cloudster!!!
Cloudster Pillow Monster
I absolutely love this thing. Also fits on my beretta 92 holster!
I am super happy with the pillow. It not only allows me to carry in comfort but drives great concealment for me. Even under a light tshirt or polo my pistol just disappears. I drive a bit and I can go hours with the pillow with out feeling any discomfort. I carry a Canick Mete MC9 Prime in a Pinnacle Concealment IWB holster. Here are the pics of me carrying and how my holster is setup.
Cloudster Pillow Standard
It’s been great. I carry appendix with a Glock 19.5 and the pillow tilts the top of the gun and tucks the grip into the body nicely. Plus being soft and comfortable. I found using a holster that has an off center – over the trigger belt clip works best. The holster did have a belt wing but not needed now.

I love Cloudster! This is my 4th.

G19 in a Darkstar Gear Orion Holster for a G17. I think i have tried the big name wedges. Even the tear drop and flat ones made out of that foam block material. The cloudster has been by far the most comfortable wedge to date. Will definitely be back for me!

Put the mini on my dinosaur of an EDC. Super comfortable fit! Will likely use the standard for the M&P 2.0 I plan on getting soon!

Cloudster Pillow Standard
The pillow has made a huge difference, very happy with the results. The size that I got fits perfectly, exactly what I was looking for. Thank you!
Cloudster Pillow Deluxe
This has been extremely comfortable to wear all day. The best purchase I’ve made for my EDC. I glad I found your product.
I picked up the Cloudster holster pillow in the bamboo (their high-end) pouch, and it’s honestly been a game changer. I’ve tried foam, gel, plastic wedges, you name it—but this one stands out immediately.
The memory foam is the real win here. It comes a bit overstuffed, so you’ll want to remove some filling to dial in your perfect comfort level, but once you do, it’s all-day comfortable with zero hotspots. It not only cushions the holster but also acts as a wedge for better concealment.
Another big plus is how easy it is to swap between holsters—the attachment is just Velcro, so you can move it around in seconds. If you run multiple holsters, do yourself a favor and grab extra Velcro. You’re going to want to use this on all of them. Simple upgrade, huge difference.

Cloudster Pillow Deluxe
I was skeptical and have used a bunch of other pads and wedges. This is BY FAR the most comfortable setup yet. It does the job pressing the grip into the body but where it really shines is taking the edge off of the claw and muzzle. I will definitely carry more now because of the pillow!
