Overview of the Boston Leather Radio Holder for Harris XG-75 | 5609RC-1
Reliable radio security
You count on your radio every shift, so the holder has to keep it locked in place. The Boston Leather Radio Holder for Harris XG-75, MPN 5609RC-1, delivers a secure, custom tight fit that keeps your radio where you need it while still letting you reach the controls quickly. The rigid body supports the radio on all sides so it can handle bumps, grabs, and movement in tight spaces.
Top grain leather construction
Like all Boston Leather gear, this holder uses smooth black top grain leather that looks professional on duty and holds up under daily use. A sturdy leather top strap with a nickel snap secures the radio at the top, while the open front window and side cutouts keep the screen, speaker, and push to talk area easy to access. The shaped body keeps the radio from wobbling without adding extra bulk.
Built for real calls
Custom built around the Harris XG-75, the holder uses dialed in dimensions so your radio sits snugly: about 2.5 inches wide, 1.9 inches deep, with a front height of 5.7 inches and back height of 6.2 inches. The front window starts roughly 1 inch up from the bottom, measures about 1.8 by 2.4 inches, and leaves about 2.3 inches of leather above it for extra protection. EMTs, paramedics, firefighters, and search and rescue personnel rely on setups like this because they stay comfortable, keep radios audible, and free up your hands during busy calls.

Compatibility
The Boston Leather 5609RC-1 Radio Holder is designed specifically for the Harris XG-75 portable radio. The interior size, window placement, and strap position all match this model so the radio stays stable and easy to operate.
Because of this custom build, other Harris or non Harris radios may not seat correctly, may cover controls, or may lack proper retention. If you use a different radio model, compare its size to the listed interior dimensions or contact WCUniforms before ordering.
The integrated D-rings are intended for use with Boston Leather radio straps such as the 6543 and compatible anti sway straps or keepers for chest or shoulder carry.
Intended Users
This holder is created for public safety professionals who carry a Harris XG-75 as part of their essential gear.
EMTs and paramedics use it with a radio strap to keep the radio high on the chest where they can hear traffic clearly while carrying bags, moving patients, or working in and around the ambulance. Firefighters and search and rescue personnel route the strap under turnout or outerwear to keep the radio secure but reachable in smoke, low light, or rough terrain.
It also works well for other first responders and technical users who want to move the radio off a crowded duty belt and onto a more comfortable cross body carry setup during long shifts.

Frequently Asked Questions about Boston Leather Radio Holder for Harris XG-75
Question 1. Will this holder fit radios other than the Harris XG-75?
This model is built around the Harris XG-75 only. Some radios with similar size might sit inside, but the fit, window alignment, and retention are tuned for the XG-75, so other models are not recommended.
Question 2. Can I use this holder with a radio shoulder strap?
Yes. The side D-rings are designed to clip into Boston Leather radio straps such as the 6543, along with compatible anti sway straps, so you can carry the radio across your chest instead of on your belt.
Question 3. How does the holder keep the radio from falling out?
The rigid leather body hugs the radio, and the top strap closes over it with a nickel snap. Together they help keep the radio from bouncing out while you run, climb, or work in crowded spaces.
Question 4. What color is the holder?
The holder is black, using smooth top grain leather that matches common duty gear and maintains a professional look with uniforms.
Question 5. How should I care for the leather over time?
Wipe the holder with a damp cloth to remove dirt and let it dry naturally. When needed, apply a light leather conditioner sparingly, avoiding heavy oils or harsh cleaners that could soften the leather too much or affect the stitching.
