The Ankle Deputy TM
Right Handed
The Ankle Deputy is made by SideFire Holsters in the USA. This ergonomically shaped holster uses medical grade padded laminated fabric around your ankle. This padded fabric uses open celled foam making it breathable. Open celled foam is much more comfortable than closed cell neoprene (neoprene quickly gets sweaty and hot).
The Ankle Deputy has a strong breathable stretch band that wraps around your lower calf and velcros to the other side. It has a leather support sewn on the outside which allows the holster to be angled forward for the best concealment under your pant leg. The holster itself is made from durable ballistic nylon. It is padded and has a soft inner lining to protect the surface of the gun.
The Ankle Deputy will fit about 98% of people out of the box. If you have extra large lower calves, contact us and we can include a free extender.
An optional Calf Strap is available. Click here for more info.

Info About Optional Calf Strap
Your lower calf gets smaller as it goes down. This can cause an ankle holster to slide down your leg. Using a calf strap will hold the ankle holster at a fixed height on your leg. Deciding if you need a calf strap depends on a handful of factors:
- Weight of the gun
- Shape of your lower leg
- Size of your ankle bone
- Personal preference
Some holsters makers are using a shoe insert to support their ankle holster. We've heard from customers that this shoe insert is not comfortable and they prefer the Ankle Deputy's padded calf strap system.
About 20% of customers who buy an Ankle Deputy for the Diamondback DB380 also buy the optional calf strap. The gun is small and light enough that for most people the stretchy band on the Ankle Deputy plus your ankle bone will keep the holster in place. If you are unsure if you need the calf strap, we recommend buying the Ankle Deputy first without the calf strap. You can always come back later and buy the calf strap if you decide you need it.

If you buy the optional calf strap we also include a cinch strap at no extra charge. The cinch strap can be used to hold the gun closer to your leg. It also provides additional stability while walking. Wearing the cinch strap is optional.
