Try a better holster. A holster designed for IWB carry shouldn't collapse when empty just from belt tension.
Perhaps collapsing is the wrong word. The part of the holster that is designed to cover the rear sights and keep them from jabbing me in the side gets pushed over a little by my torso. I generally have to actually muzzle myself with the gun in order to get it into the holster. I have just gone to either leaving it in the holster or taking the time to make sure I can push straight down into the holster while looking at it.

First month - 2 month questions and thoughts

It has been a little over one full month or maybe a month and a half, that I have been carrying everyday all day long. I have only carried in my stealth gear Kydex hybrid holster for about two and a half weeks, and I'm starting to notice something that is maybe going to become a bigger issue overtime. I generally put my holster on and then put my pistol into the holster after I put my pants on, I've noticed though now that I've had for a little while as I put my pants on the holster collapses a little bit. Now the only way I found to combat this is before I pull my pants all the way up in button and buckle I put the firearm into the holster first. Is there any way to help the holster not to collapse? My other thought is more of an observation, but I've noticed I don't oil my firearm a ton to where it's just pouring out of the slide but I do give it a light Sheen of oil over the slide of the gun and I guess some of it gets into the Kydex shell of the holster and I noticed this morning that the shell is completely covered in lint and fuzz. Is this just going to be something I have to watch for and clean out the shell every so often?
