Durable Materials
5.11 pants use two core fabric platforms plus a denim variant.
Flex-Tac ripstop powers the Stryke. Poly-cotton with mechanical stretch and a DWR finish for stain and water resistance.
Flex-Tac stretch canvas on the Apex and Ridge. Same fabric family, different weights. 7.2oz on the Apex for heavier duty use, 6.4oz on the Ridge for a lighter covert build.
FlexLite ripstop on the ABR Pro. The lightest of the range at 5.6oz, still reinforced at the seat and knees for hard use.
Flex-Tac denim on the Defender-Flex Jean. Jean cut with tactical toughness.
Every pair uses YKK zippers, bar-tack reinforcement at stress points, and reinforced melamine buttons.

Functional no matter the Mission
One pant, many jobs.
On shift. Duty-ready cuts built for police, security and first responder wear. Uniform-compliant colours across the range.
On the range. Freedom of movement for every shooting position. Pocket layouts sized for magazines and eye pro.
Outdoors. Abrasion resistance for hiking, camping and 4WD work. Stretch fabrics for scrambles and long days.
Everyday. Clean enough for the office or the pub. The Apex, Icon and Defender-Flex Jean look like regular pants and perform like tactical ones.
Travel. Interior stash pockets, wrinkle resistance, and fabrics that pack down without creasing.
