Nicolas Lenze 03.06.23
The variety of products that 5.11 offers is astounding, but I’ve always been most interested in their apparel and hard-use clothing. I’m still wearing the same pair of Stryke Pants from 2018. At this past SHOT Show in January, they revealed a number of new wearable products for civilians and those who work on the front lines.
