5.11 Pants

The 5.11 pant is where the brand started. Every pant in the range is built with input from the professionals who wear them, engineered around a specific job. Patrol shift, warm-weather duty, heavy work, or casual tactical wear.

Purpose-built pockets, reinforced construction, and fabric technology developed with law enforcement and military feedback. This is what tactical apparel looks like when it's designed properly.

5.11 RUSH BAGS

The pack that defined tactical carry. First launched in the early 2000s, the RUSH series has become the benchmark for tactical backpacks worldwide. MOLLE-compatible, hydration-ready, and built from heavy-duty nylon that stands up to hard use.

The range covers every mission, from sling carry and daypacks through to the RUSH 100 for extended deployment loadouts.

5.11 Footwear

Footwear engineered for the operator on their feet all day. The 5.11 range covers duty boots, tactical trainers, and hybrid designs that transition from patrol shift to field work without compromise.

Built around foot-mapping technology, moisture-wicking linings, and outsoles designed for grip on any surface. Waterproof, side-zip, safety toe, and lightweight options across the range.

About 5.11 Tactical

5.11 Tactical started with a pant. In 1968, mountaineer Royal Robbins designed a pair of climbing trousers rated 5.11 on the Yosemite Decimal System, the toughest grade on the scale. The pant was later adopted by the FBI Academy as standard training uniform, and 5.11 Tactical was born.

Today, 5.11 is the most recognised name in tactical apparel and gear. The range covers everything a professional or enthusiast needs, from duty pants and boots to bags, belts, torches, apparel and everyday carry equipment. Gear built for law enforcement, military, first responders and the wider active lifestyle community.

Frequently Asked Questions About 5.11 Tactical

Are you an authorised 5.11 Tactical dealer?

Yes. TacSource is one of Australia's leading authorised 5.11 Tactical dealers. All 5.11 gear sold through TacSource is genuine stock supplied directly from 5.11, backed by full manufacturer warranty and local support. If you have concerns about authenticity when shopping online, buying from an authorised dealer removes the risk of counterfeit or grey market product.

What sizes do 5.11 pants come in?

5.11 pants are available in waist sizes from 28 to 44, with length options in Short (30 inch), Regular (32 inch), Long (34 inch), 36 inch and Unhemmed. Most 5.11 pants fit true to size, though some models like the ABR Pro and Defender-Flex Jean run slightly slimmer through the thigh. If you're between sizes, we recommend sizing up. Full size charts are available on each product page or click here.

Do 5.11 pants shrink after washing?

5.11 recommends washing in cold water on a gentle cycle and air drying or tumble drying on low. Following these instructions, shrinkage is minimal (typically less than 3 percent across the length and waist). Avoid hot water and high-heat drying, which can cause noticeable shrinkage and reduce the Teflon finish over time.

What's the difference between 5.11 pant ranges?

Each 5.11 pant range is engineered for a specific use case. Flex-Tac ripstop (Stryke, Apex, Ridge) is the versatile everyday tactical option. Taclite Pro is lightweight and uniform compliant for warm-weather duty. ABR Pro uses heavier canvas construction for tradespeople and heavy work. Defender-Flex Jean combines tactical features with casual jean styling for plainclothes and daily wear. Full range comparison is on the 5.11 Pants collection page.

Which RUSH backpack should I choose?

The RUSH range is sized by mission duration. For a compact daily carry or sling option, the RUSH MOAB or RUSH 12 handle EDC and short trips. The RUSH 24 steps up to a full-day loadout for patrol or field work. The RUSH 72 and RUSH 100 are built for extended deployment, multi-day operations, and gear-heavy loads. All RUSH packs share the same MOLLE-compatible design and heavy-duty nylon construction. Full range comparison is on the 5.11 RUSH Backpacks collection page.
