The holster in the Madagascar chase in Casino Royale is a small piece of equipment that does a lot of work: a suede pouch, worn inside the trousers, that keeps a pistol out of sight until it is needed. The Vega IB332 holster is the closest match we can identify, with one caveat we state plainly below.
In the film
Daniel Craig’s Bond carries his Walther P99 in a Vega suede holster on his belt during the Madagascar chase. Sources disagree on the exact model: some name the IB339, others the IB332. A stunt P99 sold with an IB332 holster at Prop Store in 2025, which points towards the IB332, but we have not confirmed it from the film itself.
The details
Inside the waistband. The holster sits against the body under the trousers, which keeps the line of a jacket clean. It is a compact style, listed as ambidextrous, so it suits a left or a right hip.
Suede. Vega lists the related IB3 as suede in cognac, and retailers list the IB332 as leather in brown. Suede grips the cloth and stays quiet when you move.
A polymer clip. The holster attaches to the belt with a clip rather than a loop that has to be threaded on. Vega, the maker, makes its holsters in Italy.
Owning it now
Vega’s own page covers the related IB3 inside-waistband holster in suede, and is the place to see the range and the fit list. The same maker’s IB333 appears on our Vega IB333 Holster (Spectre) page. Holster law and licensing vary by country and by state, and a holster only makes sense if you are entitled to carry or store the weapon it fits. Check the fit list for your own pistol before you choose a model, because Vega publishes holsters for hundreds of handguns. For the broader picture, see accessories and Daniel Craig’s Bond.

Questions
Is this the holster Bond wears in Casino Royale?
Possibly. Sources name either the Vega IB339 or the IB332 for the Madagascar chase, so we cannot say with certainty which one it is.
What is the Vega IB332 made of?
Retailers list it as leather in brown, and Vega’s related IB3 is suede. Both are inside-waistband designs with a clip.
Is it left or right handed?
It is ambidextrous, so one holster suits either hand.
More from the film is on the Casino Royale and other film pages.
