Review to follow...
QUALITY is the first word that comes to mind when looking at these 5.11 Tactical Pants. The seams are very well stitched with reinforcements in the high wear areas. For example in the pockets there is a double layer (reinforcement) towards the bottom at the seam where you would normally use a pocket clip to attach a knife. I really like this feature because a lot of times the pockets wear out from clipping on/off a knife several times a day or are two thin for a knife to be properly retained. The pockets also have two sections, the first has a vertical zipper (great for items you don't want to potentially fall out or are trying to conceal well) with two additional pockets inside and the second is a standard pocket which allows for quick access like most pants. The pockets are also very deep which adds to their functionality. This combination feature is great for carrying extra magazines, knives, flashlights, pocket pistols, etc.

The elastic waist allows for a near perfect fit without the use of a belt and adds to what makes these pants so comfortable. The belt loops are fairly robust and easily accommodate rigger style belts.

The side pockets are very well concealed and easily hold AR15/AK47 magazines but can be used for a wide variety of items. The only thing that gives away that there are pockets there is the piece of material attached to the zipper. This is something that could easily be removed for better concealment but with the understanding that it would slow your ability to open the pockets.

The back pockets are very large compared to most pants that I have worn and could certainly hold a pocket pistol if you desired. They are held closed by a very sturdy set of velco. I have not tested these long enough to see if the velco will hold up in the long term but I have a feeling that they will.

All in all the only problem I find with these pants is that I no longer wear any of my other pairs. I now have several pairs in a variety of colors. I work as a veterinarian and these have replaced my Dockers as they are far more durable, stains come right out of them, the pockets make them very functional and they are extremely comfortable.
 
Re: BlackHawk Product Reviews: Mossberg

I know this is a Blackhawk thread, but if you're looking for a versatile tac vest that is easily changed out to whatever you're using it for that day you should look into 5.11. There vest is padded w/ non-slip neoprene in the shoulder areas for reduced slip of gun stocks while in shooting position. They have standard MOLLE straps for any MOLLE type accessory or you can use there quick connect slip stick accessories. And it's one of the few vests that has a drag handle, just in case you'd need to be pulled out of some where in a hurry. They also have more basic ones with pockets sewn in if you don't like the MOLLE webbing all over the place. I'm looking at picking one up soon.

I have yet to try one of the 5.11 Shirts, but every other clothing item I've bought from them is top notch. Look forward to picking one up in the future.

Hands down one of the nicest tactical shirts I have ever used. I only have one set at the moment but will be ordering some more in other colors shortly.
 
I wear 5.11 pants and polos everyday at work, definately well built clothing. Kinda pricey if you have to buy it yourself, but when you get them for free, it's all good! :D
