Manufacturing excellence is how Alien Gear Holsters is able to create the ShapeShift Modular Holster, which requires the utmost in precision. How is that possible? With the support of talented personnel in our Tooling department like Mitchell.

Mitchell works in our Tooling department, and is involved in keeping our ShapeShift molds in working order. He cleans, inspects and otherwise helps keep these molds working and thereby ensures that we're able to keep making ShapeShift holsters up to the standards of Alien Gear Holsters.

The ShapeShift Modular Holster System is injection-molded rather than press-molded like most polymer holsters are made. Injection molding is capable of far greater precision in the final product, which is what makes the ShapeShift shell system so much better than almost any other holster out there.

However, the nature of injection molding is such that a long time must be taken to perfect the mold. The mold must be perfect before unit #1 leaves the factory, or else you have to start all over. Additionally, the mold must be kept in perfect working order as long as possible, or else you have to order an all-new one.

Who ensures molds stay in working order? For Alien Gear, it's Mitchell and his co-workers in our Tooling department. If you've noticed the fitment of your ShapeShift holster and are pleased with the results, it's Mitchell and his team that you have to thank.
