Most readily available are the Fattac Holster or Fat Guy? holster from JX Tactical. I used to get them from a company called tactical justice because they were cheaper and made them for my preferred light which is less common, but I don't think they're in business anymore
I'm sure there are others out there, those are just the ones I have experience with

If you ever decide to try again, I'd recommend a deep concealment holster. I'm a big guy and not all holsters work. But with deep concealment holsters it is very easy for me to carry aiwb all day long. I sometimes have to drive 6-8 hours in a day for work and have no issue with it
I just don't feel comfortable with the grip of the firearm being so low and deep.
 
Can you share your setup? i'm experimenting with different setups myself and ive umm, grown quite a bit in the frontal area to where AIWB doesn't work well.
I like the trex arms ironside hybrid and I carry it 3 or 4 o clock depending on what I'm wearing.

Yeah when I first made the switch I thought the same thing. Just took some practice and I can draw consistently and it's not an issue. Plus I can comfortably carry this way on my long drives and I can carry no matter what kind of clothing
Obviously this won't be the right answer for everyone, just another option
