I would definitely go with a soft ...like an uncle mikes. I carry an XDS 3.3 single stack and purchased a DeSantis in leather...completely un-usable hurts a lot.
Uncle mikes sidekick - the black one I actually bought for an XD 4" .40, but it just isn't a great IWB gun, but it works really good for the XDS 3.3", as you can see it fully envelops the gun so everything is soft that touches your skin - you could get the correct size and probably still be much easier to carry.
Now the Desantis is nice, quality etc. but I like to carry IWB getting in and out of my car, and the stiff leather and gun pinching me an all when in the car...not good. Love the Uncle Mikes though, night and day as far as comfort.
Also, for everyone I highly recommend going single stack for concealed as Fen did, many affordable polymer types out there - glock is making a single stack now as well, but I went with Springfield just cuz I already had one. XDS comes in 9mm or .45 - i have the 9 round extension, it has three mag configs 7, 8 or 9. Don't know what .45 has, but probably 1 less per config.
I just realized you said tuckable - the desantis pictured is...but i'd try to find one soft. If you are interested in my desantis, PM me.
