I have a CrossBreed IWB which is 1/2 leather, 1/2 kydex. It is more comfortable than the UCR and lighter. ( If you ever order a CrossBreed IWB you need to ask for a "FULL GRIP/ COMBAT DRAW! Trust me.)
Comp-Tac,
http://www.comp-tac.com has a new one, the Minotaur MTAC, which is 1/2 leather, 1/2 kydex. I don't own one YET, but I have read good things about them and would recommend it highly.
The CrossBreed,
http://www.crossbreedholsters.com is the only holster I have, out of 7 or 8, that I would buy another one.
I have a G26, and also have a CrossBreed - it's a good holster, well worth the price. I didn't get the "combat draw", and regret it now. I'll likely try and "modify" the leather to provide the "combat draw" at some point as it's just "in the way" with the standard config.
However, I couldn't resist, and got a MTAC as well. I think I'll probably not be wearing the Crossbreed too much more anyhow - the MTAC is THAT comfortable. HIGHLY recommended - not much more than the Crossbreed pricewise, and definitely higher quality (and quicker time to my door as well!).
My overall recommendation is the MTAC.

I carry a G26 and it depends what you are after. I use an MTAC for weekends when I can walk around with an un-tucked shirt. It is comfortable and Com-Tac's customer service is amazing. This holster won't work for my office environment wearing dress slack and a tucked shirt. Kydex- no break-in time. Great from day one.
On weekdays I use a Fist Secret System #22 which is makes the G26 absolutely undetectable even in an office environment. It is reasonably comfortable (for having a gun in your crotch area). No visible clips or anything odd to draw attention. No one has EVER noticed anything. The pain is finding the right belt and installing the velcro so it stays. The Fist is an excellent quality holster but it is leather and required a little break-in.
Hope that helps.

When I'm carrying a BHP, I use a Versa Max II. It may well be the best IWB leather production holster made.
My G26 currently rides in a CTAC. Good Kydex holster . . . the offset clips mean its thinner than some.
I tried an Alessi Watch Six Dual Talon for the G26 . . . used it for a while, but did NOT like it at all . . . not the fit of the gun or the attachment to my pants.
