Why 5.11 Apex Pants?
The cargo pant built for professionals who move between covert and tactical roles in the same shift. Flex-Tac stretch canvas delivers the durability of traditional canvas with two-way mechanical stretch for full range of movement. Seven reinforced belt loops carry the weight of a loaded duty or EDC belt, while concealed flex-cuff and handcuff key pockets deliver covert utility that most cargo pants never offer. Available in colours that read professional in the office and blend into the environment on operations.
