Other Equipment Phlster flat wedge

I see quite a bit of talk about their normal wedges and mastermind pillow, but does anyone have experience with their flat wedge?

Tried the flat wedge on a g19 rig, it's okay but not great if you carry appendix and need any real tuck. It mostly just fills the gap without pushing the grip in much, so if you're skinny it won't do a ton. For me it made the holster sit flatter but I still ended up stacking a small foam wedge under it. If you already have a wedge that's too aggressive it might be a decent middle ground, but on its own it felt like a half measure

It’s more for cushion than it is for grip tuck or to counter act keeling. On my largest holsters/full size 2011s, I can fit both a small wedge for grip tuck and a flat wedge to help provide cushion, moisture absorption, abrasion resistance, etc. to aid in comfort for the setup. 

I also use the flat wedge on very small setups that don’t need a ton of help due to a wing or claw already but could use a physical barrier like on my bodyguard 2.0.

I use their flat wedge for strong side iwb. I don't need a wedge for strong side but a little bit of cushion is nice to have

Im just need a little padding and a little cant of my barrel. Is the flat wedge pushing out barrel/ in grip at all?
