5.11 used to be rock climbing gear by Royal Robbins. Then the FBI cadets started wearing them. Now they are tacticool clothes worn by all the LARPers and chairborne commandos.

- korse 3y agoInteresting. I've been wearing Royal Robbins pants for years and actually ended up with a pair of 5.11 pants that I think are excellent. I'm not surprised that there is a connection. Screw the branding, but I spend a whole lot of time being active outside and really like clothing that is durable and moves very well.
