Winter is Coming

by Aevans | Verified Buyer

And you’ll be warm when it does. This coat is super heavy and the dual layers leave no room for heat to escape. I wouldn’t wear it skiing but traveling in snow will cause me no loss of heat by any means.

Issues

by Mike F

My issue is the crotch it needs to be stretchy for hand to hand grappling on the ground as well as climbing. You used to make a pair of pants called Stryker which had this and were fantastic. Not sure why production of those stopped.

5.11 RUSH 72 2.0 Backpack

I Really Like this Backpack

by Joseph M

The Rush 72 2.0 is an awesome backpack, there is space for pretty much anything i can think of. The only two cons to the backpack are the mesh web pouch and the laptop sleeve. The mesh web pouch, in my opinion, is not very useful because filling up the pouch with the front zipper pocket full will crease the entire compartment in half. In addition, the laptop sleeve in the main compartment is on the small side; it will still fit a 15" laptop but is a tight fit. For the rush 24 2.0, the laptop sleeve will only hold a large ipad or possibly a 12' chromebook, way too small for the 24 2.0.

by Michael H | Verified Buyer

I have to get it tailored, even with body armor underneath. But one size under what you normally wear.

5.11 pants are the best for work.

by Michael B | Verified Buyer

They fit very good, look good, and most importantly of all feel good. I used to work as a security guard for 10 years I wish I knew about these now that I work in logistics. This brand is known for durability and function.

So much room

by Joseph T | Verified Buyer

This back pack was so good I bought a 2nd one as my wife likes it too. Great for a go bag and a ton of space as well very modular for different pouches. The frame is so good along with the waist belt feels a 45-50 lbs feel like 20 lbs

5.11 Aramis Shorts

Almost Perfect…

by Kinz

I really like the 5.11 Aramis shorts, in fact, they’re probably the best EDC shorts I’ve tried. First, they look like regular shorts and not BDU’s or tactical pants that are cutoff at the knees and hemmed. You can throw on a polo or oxford and no one would be the wiser that your shorts concealed a small arsenal. Both front pockets are cut to allow for a knife clip or any other gadget that has a clip. There are two hip pockets that easily held my iPhone Pro Max. I also easily put 2 Glock 17 mags in one pocket so they would be equally at home at the range. There are 2 easy upgrades I would recommend for 5.11; either put some sort of closure or non-slip material in the back pockets. I felt the need to constantly check that my wallet hadn’t fallen out. The second recommendation is that the front pockets be made a little deeper. Finally, I would suggest that 5.11 seriously consider making an Aramis pant. These shorts really are great! They’re super soft, the fabric doesn’t make a swooshing noise when you walk and they look awesome!
