Born in Yosemite. Raised at Quantico. Designed in California.

Timeless. Tough. True.

Strength in Every Stitch

With features like reinforced stitching, abrasion-resistant fabrics, and practical utility pockets, every pair of 5.11 pants are designed to perform under pressure.

Ripstop Fabric

Mechanical stretch fabric moves more, wears stronger, and responds faster than the competition. Proprietary technology like Flex-Tac® for mobile durability and Fast-Tac® for lightweight performance makes all the difference when you’re up against a challenge.

Stain resistant

Liquid resistant fabrics give you the confidence to push through obstacles that might seem too daunting when wearing lesser pants.

Wearing 5.11® isn’t just about the pants—it’s about the confidence they inspire, knowing your gear will perform every time, so you can focus on living your best, most authentic life.
