The FBI training academy adopted the original 5.11® pant as its training pant in 1992, forging a decades-long relationship that drives the company’s commitment to public safety and the first responder community. 5.11 Tactical® began developing a more extensive law enforcement line in 2003. Its designers work together with public safety professionals to create gear that meets the needs of real people in the field. In 2012, 5.11 Tactical® rose to the challenge of redesigning its women’s collection to create better fitting and higher performing options. Today, the company is still focused on its core law enforcement end-users, plus expanding into the outdoor and fitness markets. 5.11 Tactical® is determined to meet these new challenges with the same grit and fortitude that has always defined its brand.
