Galco continues its trend toward combining fashion and function with its new Coachella Holster Waistpack, designed for discrete carry of a compact semi-automatic or small-frame revolver. But your Coachella won’t be like any other, as each Coachella is one of a kind, with a unique inlaid gemstone cabochon as the centerpiece of the pack’s decorative exterior artwork. The gemstone itself measures approximately 1 ½” x 1 ¼” and varies from pack to pack.

The Coachella uses a gun-specific hybrid Kydex/leather plate that snaps in and out of the pack’s dedicated gun pocket. A smaller, zippered pocket is positioned above and behind the main gun pocket. A third, open-top slot pocket rides behind the gun pocket, against the wearer’s body.

The rigid Kydex holster pocket provides fast draw and easy holstering while facilitating a full firing grip. The holster/plate may also be unsnapped and completely removed, allowing the pack to be used as a conventional general-purpose/non-gun waistpack.

Constructed of soft black Vachetta full grain drum-dyed leather, the Coachella uses nickel-plated, solid-brass hardware: grommets, buckle, leather lacing beads and barrels.

Each Coachella Waistpack is individually made by hand, and may reflect custom nuances not seen in manufactured goods. Available in two waist sizes to accommodate most gun carriers.

Currently available for small-frame revolvers and the Glock 43 series.
