Stylish khaki (5.11 covert khakis) at LA Police gear

cj · September 2nd, 2009, 01:17 PM

I know these have been mentioned before, but I just discovered a price drop on these and wanted to pass along the deal for others to take advantage of. I'd also suggest checking 'retailmenot.com' for coupon codes...I tried one last night but am not sure it will work, but it's worth a shot! I am no associated with them in any way, just like the pants a lot, and have had success ordering from LA Police Gear in the past.

LA Police Gear is offering the 5.11 Covert Khaki pants for only $19.99, including a free belt. I bought a few pairs of these at $30 each (unfortunately got 3 of the same belt which I can't really use). When I put on a pair last night and really liked how they looked and felt, I went back to see if they still had them...and discovered the price drop.

These pants look good, and are not recognizable as the typical 5.11 tactical pants. They've got some nice flexibility via elastic in the waist (so great for IWB, or if you're not going IWB, you won't have extra slack), and a nice feature of double front pockets...basically a zippered internal pocket for magazines or other items (I sometimes will can fit an LCP in holster in there when I need better retention or concealment).

The only thing that externally shows that they're not just normal pants are some slim side zippered pockets.

99% of what 5.11 sells is imported; therefore I am not buying it anymore !!!

Argh! I missed that. Guess that explains the low prices.

Do you have suggestions of quality (comfortable) pants which are made here?

I have a few pairs and I really like them... Can't give you much info. on comparable pants made here, they seem to be getting harder to find everyday...

EOtac, Woolrich Elite...all fine products. Also recently found these, http://www.theforceonline.com/page.a...=20&Page=60927

Nice looking stuff, but both EOtac and Woolrich Elite seem to be imported as well. jfl, still looking for brands that are made in the US, but they don't make it easy.

technically weren't we all imported a couple hundred years ago?

You wont be wearing much then, because we dont have much left in the way of manufacturing clothes. Much of the military stuff that our troops wear in imported.

I just got two pairs in,they look like docker dress pants and occassionally I need a pair of casual pants,so I will use them,the free belt was what drew me in since a decent belt is around 15.00 or more
