I’m going to make some leather holsters similar to the OG Tom Kuhn silver bullet holsters. I’m going to make some sized for the ZGRT Janus, because I want one. The style lends itself well for slimlines. Any suggestions for other sizes? What other slimmer yo-yos would you like a holster for? ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/1/e/e/1eea0f222b1e992444399351ac40f016ed933c41.jpeg) ---

Please put me on a order list for at least 1. I think a size to the yoyos mentioned above would be good. I think One size could hold most slim lines. ---

They’ve got to be wider. I’ve only been able to fit a cold fusion. Make me one that will fit a GT. Then it should fit anything. Jmtc. Been there, done that. ---

Sorry but I’m keeping this one. But I’m going to make more so please be patient. I decided to name it the Goat holster because it’s designed to resemble the original TK holster which in my opinion is the best holster design for slimline yo-yos. Its wet formed full grain leather, saddle stitched with rivets at the corners for added strength. I’m sure I’ll get better at making them and I plan to make different sizes so if you like what you see, stay tuned.:yo-yo: [Next page](https://forums.yoyoexpert.com/t/custom-leather-holsters/371373.md?page=2)
