I heard about 5.11 tactical and bought a pair of boots about 3 years ago. Since then, my entire wardrobe and all my gear is filled with 511 Tactical products.

What does ‘5.11’ stand for?
5.11 Tactical Pants with the patented tactical strap and slash pocket design were originally developed for rock climbing. “5.11” is a rock climbing difficulty level as listed in the Yosemite Decimal System. With skill levels ranging from 5.0 (easy) to 5.10 (difficult), 5.11 is even more grueling. 5.11 is officially defined as, “After thorough inspection, you conclude this move is obviously impossible; however, occasionally someone actually accomplishes it.”
