Hi friends,
When I first started Zendira, my goal was simple. To give women a better option, bags that were as functional as they were beautiful, designed for real life and real carry. From day one, every bag came with a Kydex trigger guard or holster because I wanted you to have everything you needed right out of the box.
But over time, I’ve been listening to you.
Here’s what I kept hearing:
-
“I already have a holster I love...can I get a discount if I don't need one?”
-
“I don’t need a Kydex trigger guard, and I don’t want to wait for one to ship.”
-
“I want more flexibility to choose what’s right for me.”
So, we’re making a change.
What’s New
Starting August 4th, Zendira bags will no longer automatically include a Kydex trigger guard or holster. Instead, they’ll be available as optional add-ons so you can customize your carry exactly how you want it.
Why It Matters
This isn’t about giving you less. It’s about giving you more. More control. More personalization. More options that fit your lifestyle.
And it’s about something bigger than just this change.
I know from my own experience and from so many of you who’ve shared your stories with me that it can take years to go from wanting to carry to feeling confident carrying every single day. That journey looks different for every woman, and I want Zendira to support you through all of it.
What to Expect Next
This new “build your bag” approach is just the beginning. It means you can start with exactly what you’re ready for now and add to it as your comfort and confidence grow. Over the coming months, you’ll see:
-
New Add-On Options: More ways to choose the holsters, trigger guards, and carry accessories that fit your needs.
-
Exclusive Customizations: From limited-edition trims to unique accessories, you’ll be able to personalize your bag like never before.
-
A Better Experience: Our interactive builder will make it easy (and fun) to design a Zendira that evolves with you.
This is about more than bags. It’s about creating something that grows with you as you take each step of your journey.
As always, we’re a small team, and these changes take time. But we’re headed in this direction because you told us it’s what you want, and I’m so grateful you continue to help us make Zendira better every day.
Thank you for trusting me with your carry.

FAQs
Why are Kydex trigger guards and holsters no longer included with Zendira bags?
We made this change based on customer feedback. Many women already own holsters they love or don’t need a Kydex trigger guard. Making these optional add-ons gives you more flexibility and control over your carry setup.
When does this change take effect?
Starting August 4, Zendira bags will no longer automatically include a Kydex trigger guard or holster. They will be available as optional add-ons at checkout.
Will I still be able to purchase Kydex trigger guards and holsters?
Yes. Kydex trigger guards and holsters will remain available as optional add-ons so you can select the components that work best for you.
Why is Zendira making this change?
We believe every woman’s carry journey is unique. This change supports a more personalized approach, allowing you to build your bag in a way that evolves with your comfort, confidence, and lifestyle.
How does this affect shipping times?
In many cases, removing default Kydex components will speed up processing times for those who don't need them. Customers who choose add-ons can expect the same lead times as before.
