King West Leather was founded by Joe “King” Papa in 2011 as a small family business in Phoenix, Arizona.

Already famous for extremely high quality and fashionable, innovative designs, King West gained worldwide notoriety when the X-Cross shoulder system became the #1 selling shoulder holster for cell phones and all your various devices.

Originally devised as a way to keep my constantly growing cell phone and too-full wallet out of the pocket of my skinnier and skinnier jeans, the X-Cross was a hit with everyone who saw it. Soon I was making holsters for all of my friends and family.

The holster has a Rock-n-Roll Cowboy vibe but fits in with almost any style, readers of GQ will know how to wear their holster with any ensemble: Preppy, Hip Hop or Country.

Whether you’re fashion forward or simply want a better, safer place to keep you belongings, the X-Cross Shoulder Holster™ will instantly become part of your daily wardrobe.

I can’t say much yet…but keep an eye out for our products appearing in several Hollywood movie releases.
