- I was excited to receive this a couple months ago.
5.11 has been improving their discreet clothing, and I was seriously impressed.

I’m recently retired LEO and was in the military. Just bought this today and I’m loving it so far. I wear suits all the time for church and this will make it easier to edc all my goodies. Might have to buy the blue next. Might not be for everyone but I like the fit and style!
Excited to see them in stores to try on. Suit edc is still the hardest for me so this might help with that.
I'll caution that this is a pretty casual jacket.
I wouldn't wear it to a formal event.
I was hoping for a sport coat to wear to Lodge or other events where I need a tie and sport coat.
@NavyMooseCMMC if a tie is called for, I think this might be too casual an option
Just bought the black and I’m loving it. I can blend this in fine with a tie imo for church and other events. There’s so many cool compartments I’m still trying to figure out.
when i spotted your thumb nail , i went to the 5.11 web sight and fond their listing for this jacket , i plan on getting one in each color next month .
i am also going to get some items from duluth trading, from their new pitchman line ,which also includes shirts and pants.
My current "travel jacket" is by Eddie Bauer - similar synthetic shell festooned with pockets, button-less sleeves. It has performed admirably as an ad-hoc rain jacket and resisted all manner of stain, sweat, and odor from long days of plane travel. Important for me living in the south was a light grey colorway that the 5.11 model doesn't offer. It'll never work for a proper business meeting, but as you implied, works great as an urban field jacket for all the various bits useful for a guy about town. I've noticed an extreme improvement in how I'm treated between a more casual jacket and a smarter travel sport coat. I recommend picking up the Eddie Bauer version and running a comparison in the future so people can judge which one might work better for them.
Thanks for the review. I'd like a more detailed video of you with several guns and the jacket as a cover garment. With that said, another good point is that it is machine wash and dry. I guess it's meant for everyday wear in and out of cars, eating in diners, etc.
I like how 5.11 is getting away from the overtly tactical look. There are still tells if you know what you're looking for but this looks like a decent casual semi-tactical jacket. That Diamondback looks very nice and a video on that would be appreciated.
For a less tactical travel jacket I have some old ScottEVest jackets that I load up and send through the x-ray machines.
This is a good solution
I emailed the company multiple times when they are going to come out with this jacket. I’ve been very excited about it. I’m a huge 511 fan. I also asked them if they are going to release Miami Vice colors.
I was hoping you would share your thoughts on this jacket when I saw your Kohl's short a few hours ago. You mentioned the fit was great for you, but I didn't hear you mention the size that you were wearing. XL? L?
What size are you wearing? Thanks.
I mean, it's not hard to add cuff buttons, you can do it home with needle, thread, and a RUclips video.
🤠💯👍🏽
Please provide details about the product / jacket in the description!?!? Maybe?? 🤔 🤷♂️
At the end of the day it’s an ugly sport coat. No buttons on cuffs, the outer pockets are open and exposed. I’ve concealed in business casual for years. Buy good clothes but slightly larger to conceal your gear.
Do you have any recommendations from your experience, brand-wise?
@ over the years I found Stafford brand to have a large selection and good quality at a reasonable price. Nothing fancy but not cheesy and it’ll be something you can wear and fit in anywhere. JCPenny carries them.
Also, about half of military guys have no clue how to wear a sport coat or suit…
To be fair, patch pockets make sense for a sport coat.
What are the color options?
Currently black or navy
@ Yes! That are the selections on 5-11’s site. I was thinking you might have been presented additional color options as an early-access individual :-)
@ 3xl is needed; is your jacket an xl? I was thinking it would be a 2xl, per the sizing guide.
I thought it was a review😢
I haven't had enough time with it to give an honest, substantial review yet.
Shoot me first Blazer to go with your 5.11 shoot me first pants?
There's nothing "shoot me first" about the cut of this jacket, or their jeans/chinos.
They've come a long way in 20 years.
Ask him if they’re gonna come out in Miami Vice colors pastel’s white whatever
Typical, this is supposed to come out a year ago according to that liar, James Reeves, typical lawyer
