An ankle holster system, for carrying a concealed handgun includes a vertical support member that engages footwear worn by a user to provide vertical support for a holster and handgun. Cooperating releasable fasteners are mounted on the holster and the support member for securing the holster to the support member. A retainer strap wraps around the leg and the holster to secure the holster against rotative movement and attaches to the holster by another pair of cooperating releasable fasteners. The support member may include a strap to secure it to the leg of a user in the case of a heavy gun and holster that could cause outward bowing of the support member. The support member includes a planar metal element that can be bent in its plane and perpendicular to its plane but is rigid in the vertical direction to minimize vertical movement of the holster but allow for flexing necessary at the ankle and foot. The system includes a support member for use with boots and a longer support member for use with shoes. A flexible cylindrical cloth cuff member may be worn under the holster to increase comfort if the system is used with thin socks.
