Can’t really speak to guns and kydex, but I do run some kydex knife sheaths, and made some holster rigs years ago.
What I have done when I did may work, or help in your case.
One of holsters I made years ago I didn’t have leather thick enough to hold well, so wet moled then I took an old backpack, and epoxied the cordura, to exterior of the leather. It Made it hold good and solid. Cordura had some rubberized inner material so heated and molded it.
So I’m thinking of done with care a good piece of cordura, or canvas expoxied around the whole holster would strengthen it without making it overly bulky. Maybe even just around the area it’s breaking + couple inches beyond.
Just an idea. 🤷🏼♂️
I personally don’t like kydex for my knives although I do use then. Keep having to heat and re-mold to keep tension, as well as dust and dirt getting in dulling my edges. 🤬
If I carried a gun I’d be fretting it’s get scarred and marred from the abrasive grit work would invariably get in it.
