If you carry a gun a lot, irrespective of whether you pick kydex or leather, you're gonna experience some holster-wear. And the flimsy nylon pieces of crap (Uncle Mike, Remora, et al) are hardly suited for CCW
But there are two pieces of good news.
1. You have an XD. So who cares if you scratch it ?
2. On a slightly more seious note, a CCW pistol is a tool. Get used to it. If it gets scratched, that's like scratching a crescent wrench. Big deal.
3. If you have a gun that is so precious (hardly sounds like an XD) or so beautiful (for sure ain't an XD) that you fear scratching it, you've picked the wrong carry weapon. Leave the Kimber, Springfield Custom or Nighthawk in the safe, and carry a Glock. Problem solved.

Agreed, but at present the OP doesn't have his CCP. I referred him to an Uncle Mike's as an inexpensive option until he 1. Gets a CCP and 2. Decides how he'll carry it once he's got his CCP. I stand by my recommendation of a $20 Uncle Mike's until he figures things out.
