I used ankle holsters for back up weapons and off duty for 30 years. You get used to them. The hot climate where I lived made waistband holsters impractical. Never liked having my shirttails out and jackets were only worn for about a week in January.The one I used most was Galco. I like the neoprene. It distributes weight well.
I've also had boots modified to carry a compact gun. I have skinny calves so it worked for me.
Ankle holsters are not speedy but with practice you can draw a weapon fairly smoothly.
They are better than only being armed with a rapier-like wit.
