The Short Answer
The Holstery LowBoy is a modular tool belt panel that clips onto your belt and hangs your holsters lower, right where your hand naturally falls. It's essentially a ModPanel on a clip. The Single-Wide holds two holsters in its ModSlots, and the Double-Wide holds four, so you can gang up a full load-out in one spot on your hip.
It also lets you reach your gear over a jacket or sweatshirt, and swap a whole job-specific setup with one clip. Like all our gear, it's assembled in the USA and backed by a lifetime repair or replace guarantee.

Why We Made the LowBoy
More and more people are using Holstery gear as a full belt system, so we designed the LowBoy to help with that.
I originally designed all our clip-on holsters to ride high. Tool bags usually hang well below the waist, and I felt that let them flop around and hit stuff. So our holsters brought your gear up to waist level.
Fast forward, and I'm changing my tune a bit. Even I (yes, it's true) like bigger loads hanging a little lower. The sweet spot seems to be right where your hand naturally falls, which makes it really easy to find and grab a tool.
Riding High vs. Hanging Low
Both have their place. Here's how they compare.
Holsters clipped high on the belt: they stay tight to your body, don't swing into things, and work great for one or two tools.
Holsters hung low on a LowBoy: they sit where your hand naturally falls, clear your jacket, and let you group several holsters in one spot.
| Clipped High on the Belt | LowBoy Single-Wide | LowBoy Double-Wide | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Where tools sit | At waist level | Lower, where your hand falls | Lower, where your hand falls |
| Holsters per spot | One per clip | Up to 2 | Up to 4 |
| Works over a jacket | Can get covered | Yes | Yes |
| Swap a full setup | One holster at a time | One clip | One clip |
| Best for | One or two all-day tools | A small combo, like a MagMaster and Joey | A full side load-out |
The Lowdown: What the LowBoy Lets You Do
1. Use your gear over a jacket
Because the LowBoy hangs below the belt, you can reach your Holstery gear while you're wearing a jacket or sweatshirt. That's a big help in the cooler months.
2. Gang up multiple holsters in one spot
Belt space used to run out fast, and the best spot is right on the side of your hips. Now you can put up to four holsters there instead of fighting for room.
3. Swap a whole load-out with one clip
Set up a LowBoy for a specific job and clip it on when you need it. A Single-Wide LowBoy with a MagMaster and a Joey Pouch makes a perfect combo for technician work.
Built tough: the LowBoy uses a lightweight composite body, a milled aluminum backer, and a steel clip, with spacer mesh on the back to cut down on sweat and hot spots.

My Favorite LowBoy Combo
I use a Double-Wide LowBoy on my left side. I usually load it like this:
- Two Joey Pouch Pros on the bottom row. These hold supplies like wire nuts, staples, screws, and fittings. I use the ModSlots on the Joeys for pens, markers, and knives. Sometimes I'll add a MagMaster on the side for drill bits.
- A MagMaster Pro on the top left for random hardware or more drill bits.
- A TapeMaster Pro on the top right for my tape measure.
- For framing or carpentry, I'll swap one of the lower Joeys for a SquareMaster Pro.
@simlersolutions (local contractor and pro-team member) runs the same setup on his right side.

Common Concerns
"Won't low-hanging gear flop around?"
That was my worry too, and it's why our holsters originally rode high. The LowBoy hangs just below the belt, at the sweet spot where your hand falls, not way down low like a big tool bag. Holsters lock into its ModSlots so they don't slide around.
"Do I need new holsters?"
No. Every Holstery holster uses the same 1.75" clip and fits the LowBoy's ModSlots.
"How do I get holsters off the ModSlots?"
They're built to stay put, so it takes a quick down, slide, up move. Here's our step-by-step guide.
