About FDO

At FDO Industries, we are passionate about empowering individuals to exercise their natural, legal, and moral right to self-defense. Based in the heart of Kentucky, USA, we've been crafting high-quality Kydex gear since our founding roots trace back to 2016. As a proudly American company, we stand firm in our commitment to quality craftsmanship and community support.

Our Story

FDO Industries was founded out of a desire to eliminate the ridiculous lead times that plagued the holster industry. Wait times would range from 4 to even 12 weeks. We built our company with a laser focus on quality American manufacturing. We spent literal years honing our production process so we could reach the point where your made-to-order Kydex holster could be made and shipped in just a couple days. No lead times, no matter how much demand.

Our Mission

We believe that no one is coming to save you—which is why we encourage everyone to carry responsibly. Our gear is designed to make everyday carry seamless, reliable, and above all, comfortable. Whether you're navigating urban streets or rural trails, our products help you stay prepared without compromise. Carry Focused. Comfort Driven—that's not just our slogan; it's our guiding principle.

What We Offer

Specializing in premium Kydex holsters and accessories, we create gear built for rigorous use. We prioritize functionality, durability, and user comfort. We don't just make holsters; we build solutions that keep your tools accessible and effective—not locked away in a safe.

Our Values

Self-defense is a fundamental right, and we're here to help uphold it. We've stood with our community during challenging times, like offering discounts to those affected by the suspension of the 2nd Amendment in New Mexico. We value freedom, self-reliance, and a touch of humor in the face of adversity—because protecting yourself shouldn't be a burden. At FDO Industries, we're more than a gear company—we're your partner in preparedness. Join the ranks of real Chads who choose our holsters for their everyday carry. Experience the difference with gear made by Americans, for Americans.
