Key Features

Uniform-Standard 8-Pocket Stretch Pant in Dark Navy

  • Move with ease: Flex-Tac® stretch canvas with elastane panels delivers unrestricted movement
  • Low-profile utility: 8 streamlined pockets, including zippered cargo storage without bulk
  • Stay sharp and dry: DWR finish resists water and stains for all-day wear

Built for

Law enforcement officers and security professionals who need a duty-standard Dark Navy pant with clean tailoring and discreet storage.

Description

Dark Navy matches the standard uniform colour for law enforcement and security departments, and the 5.11 Tactical Ridge Pant delivers that colouring with the discreet function of a covert tactical pant. Engineered to deliver rugged performance while maintaining a clean, tailored look, this pant suits high-action environments and everyday uniform wear alike.

The eight-pocket layout, including zippered cargo storage, is built around what a plainclothes or duty officer actually carries day to day, without the visible bulk that flags "tactical" to the public. Fabric performance runs through the whole garment: 6.4 oz Flex-Tac canvas handles vehicle entries and defensive tactics training, while 4.7 oz stretch panels (87% polyester / 13% elastane) at the movement zones stop the fabric from binding through a kneeling position or a foot pursuit. A DWR finish protects the navy colour from fading and staining across the repeated washing that comes with rostered uniform wear, keeping the pant looking issue-standard for years rather than months. The straight fit and flexible waistband hold a professional line through a full shift.

Features

  • Flex-Tac Stretch Canvas: 6.4 oz blend of 67% polyester and 33% cotton canvas with mechanical stretch for durable performance and unrestricted mobility.
  • Advanced Weather Resistance: DWR finish sheds moisture, soil, and stains during dynamic operations.
  • Discreet 8-Pocket Layout: Eight streamlined, low-profile pockets, including zippered cargo pockets, for secure storage without bulk.
  • Adaptive Comfort: Straight fit and flexible waistband for all-day comfort and mobility.
  • Strategic Contrast Panels: 4.7 oz stretch panels (87% polyester / 13% elastane) enhance flexibility in key movement areas, with 4.0 oz poplin pocketing.
  • Professional Aesthetic: Clean, tailored appearance with covert tactical functionality for patrol, the office, or the range.

Why 5.11 Ridge Pants?

The tactical pant built for professionals who need function without the tactical look. Flex-Tac stretch canvas delivers durable performance with mechanical stretch, while 87% polyester and 13% elastane contrast panels at the seat and knee handle bending, crouching and scrambling without binding. Eight low-profile pockets carry EDC and duty essentials without printing through the fabric or drawing attention. Straight fit reads as a professional trouser in the office and disappears into everyday environments on operations.

Ridge Pant Materials

Fabric:

Flex-Tac stretch canvas body with elastane contrast panels. 67% polyester, 33% cotton canvas (6.4oz). Mechanical stretch for movement, with 87% polyester and 13% elastane panels (4.7oz) at seat and knee for additional flexibility. DWR finish sheds water, stains and light contamination.

Construction:
  • Bar-tacked reinforcement at high-stress points
  • 4.0oz poplin pocketing for durability without bulk
  • Zippered cargo pockets for secure storage
  • Straight fit with flexible waistband
  • Low-profile pocket layout that sits flat against the leg
Canvas weave:

Lighter than the Apex canvas at 6.4oz, engineered for a professional silhouette rather than heavy-duty wear. Suits plainclothes work, EDC, trade use and everyday active wear where the pant needs to move without announcing itself.

Built for

Office, EDC, outdoor, everyday. The Ridge delivers tactical function in a straight-fit trouser that reads as workwear rather than tactical.

In the office. Straight fit and low-profile pockets pass as a professional trouser in client meetings, briefings and courtroom appearances. Elastane stretch panels handle the movement the day actually demands.

EDC. Eight pockets sit flat against the leg with zippered cargo storage that carries a phone, wallet, folding knife or torch without printing or drawing a second look. Suits plainclothes officers, security professionals and anyone who wants tactical carry in a civilian silhouette.

Outdoor. Flex-Tac canvas body with elastane panels at seat and knee handles climbing, crouching and scrambling. DWR finish sheds dust, water and light stains through trail and outdoor use.

Everyday. Reads as a robust straight-leg trouser rather than a tactical pant. Works for daily wear, weekend outdoor use and off-shift civilian dress.

Ridge Available in Shorts

The Ridge Short brings the same Flex-Tac canvas and straight-fit silhouette in an 11" length. Built for warm weather, everyday active wear and off-shift use when the full pant runs too hot.

5.11 Ridge Pant FAQ

Are 5.11 Ridge Pants true to size?

Yes. Ridge Pants run true to labelled waist and inseam measurements. The flexible waistband and elastane stretch panels accommodate slight variation in fit, so most professionals find their regular measured waist works cleanly.

What fabric are 5.11 Ridge Pants made from?

Ridge Pants use a 67% polyester and 33% cotton Flex-Tac canvas body at 6.4oz, with 87% polyester and 13% elastane contrast panels at 4.7oz across key movement zones. Mechanical stretch in the body and additional flexibility in the elastane panels deliver full range of movement. DWR finish adds stain and water resistance.

How many pockets do 5.11 Ridge Pants have?

Ridge Pants have 8 low-profile pockets, including zippered cargo storage. The layout sits flat against the leg so gear doesn't print through the fabric or draw attention in professional environments.

How is the Ridge Pant different from the Apex Pant?

Both use Flex-Tac canvas but with different construction and positioning. The Apex is a heavier duty cargo pant with 10 pockets, seven reinforced belt loops for a duty belt, and covert flex-cuff and handcuff key pockets. The Ridge is a lighter straight-fit trouser with 8 low-profile pockets, elastane stretch panels at seat and knee, and a professional silhouette that reads as civilian workwear.

Do Ridge Pants have concealed pockets for cuffs or a handcuff key?

The current Ridge model at TacSource does not include the covert flex-cuff or handcuff key pockets that feature on the Apex. If those pockets are essential to your role, the Apex Pant is the better choice within the 5.11 range.

Are Ridge Pants good for hot weather?

Ridge Pants sit at 6.4oz canvas which is lighter than the Apex (heavier canvas) but heavier than the ABR Pro (5.6oz ripstop). Suits temperate conditions and cooler summer days. For hot Australian summers, consider the Ridge Short in an 11" length or the ABR Pro Pant.

Are Ridge Pants suitable for office wear?

Yes. The straight fit, low-profile pockets and clean silhouette read as a professional trouser rather than a tactical pant. Popular with plainclothes officers, detectives, security professionals and anyone who needs to look professional in the office while retaining tactical function in the field.

How do I wash 5.11 Ridge Pants?

Machine wash cold with like colours. Tumble dry low or line dry. Avoid fabric softener as it degrades the DWR finish over time. Iron on low if needed. Do not dry clean or bleach.

I'm very happy with the look and construction quality of these pants. I ordered the 32" waist, which is a little tight on me (I've put on weight) but luckily the elastic bits on the sides allow some give in the pants. I can't wait to try them out in the "field".

Actually intended to order the Apex version but hit the wrong button :) But, that said very happy with them. A lighter weight but hopefully as durable as the Apex.
