The trick to getting a well fitting, comfortable shoulder holster is to loosen the straps over the shoulders, and tighten the straps that go under the arms.

The idea is, when the holster settles into position, the connection of the figure-eight straps should be located about between the shoulder blades, NOT in the middle of your neck.
Most people mis-adjust the straps and the connector rides up on the neck.
This is both uncomfortable, and the straps are exposed above the collar of the outer garment.

Adjust the straps to where they feel good, then wear the holster around the house for a few hours to allow the holster to shift and settle into it's nature position.
DON'T move or shift the holster, or the harness.
Once it's settled, you can make small adjustments, then wear some more.

Eventually you'll get it right and after a long day, the holster and harness will still be in the proper position.
