— Brian H. (5/5)

Wear anywhere, and have what you want with you!

"I came back to the site specifically to order another pair of these cargoes. Having realized how much I value that general style, I tried pairs from a few different sites recommended by friends. These from LAPG have turned out to be my favorites, especially in cooler weather. I find their variety of pockets, how they wear, how they wash, all suit my preferences for moving about easily with the gear I want with me, neatly tucked away and not looking a shambles (rather smart instead, in fact, so I’ve been told)! Very pleased to have an additional pair."

— Gene S. (5/5)

Hard to find these

"Excellent fit and good as formal or casual or active wear."

— David C. (5/5)

5. 11 are the Best!

"Most comfortable pants I've ever worn. The style and pockets are exactly what I like. They laundry well and have unbeatable material. Several colors to choose from which is great. Also, what makes these pants great are the different location of the pockets."

— Robert B. (5/5)

Q&A

Where are these made: Hello, 5.11 is manufactured in Irvine, California.
Do these have the Blosing straps, or drawstrings at the bottom of the legs?: These do not have Blousing straps at the bottom of the pant leg.
Is the Tundra color a off green or a chocolate brown color, certain light it looks a green, but it also looks brown. Hope this makes sense.: The Tundra color is like a dark OD Green mixed with brown. If you view 5.11's website, you can compare the OD Green pants and the Tundra colored ones. Please view this link: http://www.511tactical.com/All-Products/Pants/Tactical-Pants/Taclite-Pro-Pants.html
Will the Maxpedition Fatty Pocket Organizer fit in the Side Cargo Pocket? I believe the cargo pocket is 7" x 7". The Pocket Organizer is 7" Height and 5" Length. Would this be a snug fit or would it be to big?: I test fit this with the Fatty Organizer and it was too big for the cargo pocket, it stuck out a few inches and i was unable to fully secure it with the velcro.
What belt comes free with the pants? (When applicable): it comes with a standard TDU belt that is sized to the pants.
Do the pants at the knees have an inner "pocket" to support use of the 5.11 tactical knee pads?: Yes, these 5.11 Taclite Pants have knee pad pockets.
How is the fit of the Taclite Pro pants compared to the TDU pants?: customers do like the fit of these pants alot as they are one of our best sellers. i would say that sizing is the same between the two pants.
Hello I'm very interested in the 5:11 tacit pro pants but have a few questions first. I wear the lapg operator pants with elastic waist band and I wear a 32w◊30l . However I started getting my (medic gut) and although they have elastic waist bands they fit too tight. My question to you is, how much more do the 5:11 pants stretch ?? Should I order the 34 w ◊30l or would they be too big considering the the stretch of the waistband? Please any help is appreciated and will help me in my order.: These pants are similar in sizing to our LAPG pants. We would suggest going with the 34waist
Are they still nice to work in them in cold weather?: I would recommend wearing these with some sort of long johns depending on how cold the environment is. I'll check with other customers to see if they have some cold weather feedback for you regarding this.
Ive been wearing 5-11 on duty for awhile now. Problem is most do not have the "shirt stay band" in the waist. Ive heard these do but cant find any description. Do they have the shirt stay band?: unfortunatly these do not have the shirt stay band in the waist band. the 5.11 PDU class A's and B's do though.
HELP! I have recently bought a pair of Filson upland pants & 5-11 Tac pants. Both do not fit. I'm weary that your pants won't fit either. I am an older man that normally wear size 40, but buy 42 waist & 32 inseam. Seems the rise has been cut down to where pants ride lower on hip. Ball room is another problem. Seems pants made in Asia built for small people with no ass or tools. Before I order can I be assured the rise is cut full.: We have never heard any complaints of these pants running too small in the crotch area. Maybe you could try ordering a size 44 to give you some extra room.
The men's style comes with a free belt. I'm ordering a women's pair as well but I do not see if they come with the belt. Can I have a belt thrown in for the women's pair?: Unfortunately this is a promotion that was offered by 5.11 and they do not offer the free belt for the women's style pants. i do apologize. the mens style promotion is being discontinued as we speak as well.
What size are the belt loops and free belt?: The belt loops on these pants are approximately 2 1/2" and the belt that comes with the pants is 1 3/4".
How many inches is the opening of the ankles? I like my pants more baggy and to fit loosely around my boots. Any info on the lower half of the leg anf ankles would be great. Id like to get several pairs. Thank you!: these pants do have a loser fit around the ankles and will no bind up at the boots. they should fit you just fine.
LooKing at purchasing these pants for work, but do you sell them in chocolate brown, for corrections in arizona.: Unfortunately 5.11 does not make them in Chocolate Brown.
how can I keep my dark navy taclite pro pants from fading? I just bought a couple of dark navy taclite pdu shirts, but all of my taclite pro pants have faded so they dont match my new shirts.: The best option would be to follow the washing instructions as this will help to preserve the pants size color and look
Does the cell phone pocket hold an Iphone 5 in an OtterBox?: it is a very tight fit but yes you are able to get an iphone 5 in an otterbox case to fit in the pocket.
If I normally take size 34 x 32 in SKU #: LAPG-BO1003EWB. What size in these would I order. Thanks: 5.11 adds a lot of elastic to their pants, so you could probably go a size lower than you would with ours or stay with the same size.
what size belt loops does the tacLite pro pants have?: They have 2" belt loops.
do you ship to canada: Yes, we do offer shipping to Canada.
i am looking for 511 cargopants that have a tapered ankle..some pants are straight leg and i like a narrow look down by the ankles..please let me know what style to buy..thanks scott: 5.11 does not make tapered ankle pants since tactical pants are supposed to be worn around boots. Their TDU Pants, however, do have strings at the bottom of the pants that allow you to tighten or loosen the ankle of the pant.
Hello, I buy my 5.11 TacLite Pro Pants from Amazon because they deliver to Santiago, Chile. But you have better prices but don't deliver to Chile. Will your site make delivers to Chile in the future? Thanks: at this time we do not have plans to ship to chile. we do apologize.
what is the difference between the Taclite and the Taclite Pro? I am looking to get a new uniform for K-9 Handling. Thank you!: The main difference between the two pants would be the weight of the fabric. the taclites are about 8.5 oz cotton canvas where as the taclite pros are a 65/35 poly cotton blend that is about 6.7 oz
What color belt would you get with a purchase of the tundra colored pants? Also I wear a 34 comfortably but also like to carry iwb should I got size up or will the stretch accommodate my 1911?: A Tundra pair of pants would come with a Coyote Brown zipper. The elastic waistband on these pants would give you enough room to carry a 1911 in an IWB holster.
I'm preparing to purchase 2 pair of the 5.11 Tactical TacLite Pro Pants 38 x 30. Questions: How true to jean size do they run? What length belt will I be getting as I like the belt a little bigger that the 38 pants size?: Most of the reviews we have seen for the 5.11 Taclite Pro's state that they run true to size. We only saw a couple that said otherwise. As for the belt, a size 38 waist would come with a Large belt which will fit waist sizes 36-38.
What basic color is "Storm?" I do not see it on the 5.11 color chart: Storm is a new color that 5.11 is releasing unfortunately we have not seen this color quite yet. once we receive the item in stock we will be updating our site to show the color.
how badly do these pants shrink, I got a pair of these pants and they fit perfect. I have not washed them yet out of fear of shrinking.: The pants have a good blend of material that does prevent to help prevent any sort of shrinkage in the pants but please follow the washing instructions on the tag of the pants and you should have no problem with shrinkage.
