5.11 is a rock climbing grade.

But it does seem random. It’s far from the hardest climbing.


It has nothing to do with climbing rocks

It’s a shop specializing in tactical and duty-grade clothing. Higher end stuff, skews expensive. It’s quality , but it’s also priced accordingly. I think LAPG dot com has similar clothing but at better prices.

It’s definitely NOT a substitute for Ranger. That place was fantastic. Great milsurp and oddball stuff at reasonable prices. I still miss that place. It was quirky but awesome.

That's not really the point of a B/M, it's about having a physical presence so people buy online from them. I won't buy from stores that don't have a B/M near me so I can return it. I also don't trust a lot of online retailers.

In this area, I think it is possible. Where would you be able to try a tactical kilt?

It’s been open for several years on the Pike. It must be doing well.

Are you taking about 5.11 tactical? If so, they have a great selection of cargo pants. Most are geared towards law enforcement, but some pants look normal.
