The world is full of unknowns. We cannot possibly predict what is going to happen every minute of every day. But we can prepare for it. In the gear we carry. The clothes we wear. The mindset we hold. Whether we are on duty or off road. In country or out of cell range. The mindset is always the same...
ALWAYS BE READY.
This is not just a motto. This is not just a line on a t-shirt. This is how we live our lives. No matter what happens, we push forward, not out of the absence of fear, but in spite of it. Because we trust our instincts. We trust our training. And we trust our gear. At 5.11, we don't simply inspire readiness. We are readiness.
It all started with a pair of pants.
The FBI Training Academy adopted the original 5.11® Pant as its training pant in 1992, forging a decades-long relationship that drives 5.11®’s commitment to public safety and the first responder community.
5.11 Tactical® began developing a more extensive law enforcement line in 2003. Our designers work together with public safety professionals to create gear that meets the needs of real people in the field. In 2012, we rose to the challenge of redesigning our women’s collection to create better fitting and higher performing options. Our Women’s category has grown to include premium uniforms, covert clothing, fitness apparel and more.
Today, 5.11® is expanding into the outdoor and fitness markets with products like the Vaporlite Short and the Recon Trainer. We are determined to meet these new challenges with the same grit and fortitude that has defined our brand.
