I seriously couldn't live without cargo pants. At any given time, I'll have at least 4 pockets filled with random stuff. But no pockets? How do you even survive?

511 pants were originally meant for mountaineering type stuff

I thought 5.11 was aimed at people who concealed carry (no pun intended), or who just want to feel tacticool.

The name comes from mountain difficulty classifications. 5 being the tallest, 10 being the most difficult.

It was because they were hard wearing and had … pockets…. That cops picked them up, and then, all the tactilool wannabes came.

Lot of reviews about poor quality, especially the ripstop ones which apparently are known to rip at the crotch. Bummer
