Gear Up for Fall with 5.11 Tactical Apparel and Flashlights

With an emphasis on practical design and tough build materials, 5.11 Tactical gear has become the go-to for many EDCers. On top of their iconic bags, pouches, and tools that they make, they've also got gear to cover the rest of your bases from head to toe. So if you're serious about staying prepared with functional gear, it's important to pay attention not only to what you carry, but the clothes you carry them in as well. 5.11 Tactical's latest releases include their Defender-Flex tactical jeans, Union Waterproof boots, and their handy EDC penlight with performance-driven improvements all around.


Union 6" Waterproof Boot

When you're constantly on the go or out in the field, the clothing you wear can be just as important as the gear in your pockets. Staying protected and dry in emergency situations is one thing, but the Union Waterproof boot also has your back on an average rainy day. It’s made of a waterproof nylon and suede combo that keeps the elements out. Plus, because it laces up past the ankles you get added support if you find yourself trekking through unforgiving terrain. The waterproof eVent membrane lining the boot not only shields you from water, but even protects against bloodborne pathogens. The Union uses a cutting edge Ortholite-X25 cushion on the inside to make the boots as comfortable as they are tough.

Defender-Flex Slim Jeans

The gear you wear doesn’t stop at your ankles, which is why 5.11 also made the Defender-Flex denim jeans made to survive whatever you throw at it. You’ll get five pockets to carry everything you need to get through the day, along with two rear hip pockets for things like a spare mag or a cell phone. The pants are a blend of a mix of mechanical stretch denim and Lycra T400 polyester, giving you that classic jean look but with comfortable stretch and range of motion. Finishing details like YKK zippers and bar-tack reinforced stress points make the jeans as durable as you'd expect from 5.11 Tactical.

EDC PL 2AAA Flashlight

When it comes to EDC flashlights, 5.11 brought it back to basics with their new EDC PL 2AAA light. It has the combination of top-notch specs you’d expect from a flashlight designed for everyday use. For one, it accepts AAA batteries which aren’t hard to come by. Two AAA batteries will give you around 4 hours and 20 minutes of runtime with an output of 107 lumens. Combine those specs with the IPX4 water-resistant aluminum build with a removable pocket clip, and this is one penlight you wouldn’t mind having in your back pocket when the sun goes down.
