If you love 5.11 gear, you will LOVE this store. The staff knows the nuanced differences between each product line like the back of their hands. Theyve got a broad selection of in stock sizes. Lots of accessories. This store is worth a visit, bring your credit card.

Ive been a customer online for some time now. I had never actually visited the store before. (Downers Grove) I must say the experience was every bit as phenomenal as my online experience. The salesman (Emp-0000924) was very informative and knowledgeable of the products that I purchased. He also demonstrated and explained things beyond my wildest imagination that I was unaware of. (Rush12 2.0 Backpack) He certainly made a return customer out of me. The store appearance was spotless and his customer service was amazing!!! Thank you

Paul and the other younger staff members were very friendly and attentive when I was shopping for ems pants. They are a little expensive but you get what you pay for right. Would highly recommend.

This place is really cool. The inside of the store has a good, clean setup and they carry some unique products. The prices are outrageous and I wish I could afford the clothes, but I dont doubt that they are of unparalleled quality. Someday if I win the lotto, Ill definitely be wearing 5.11 pants every day.

Great staff, I shouldnt really have to write a review if ur purchasing 5.11 you should know what youre getting already. But if you dont know, know things are a little pricey then your average apperal but, this apperal is built to last. And that does not mean its uncomfortable in fact its more comfortable then any other apperal in my honest opinion.The store is spacious, well organized and you can spot pretty much where everything is located by just looking at the walls. Also its located at a good location.

Very clean and organized store. They have plenty of Hex and MOLLE bags, mag pouches, radio pouches, backpacks, you name it. They also carry shoes/boots, pants, shorts, shirts and more. The associate was very friendly and helpful.

Review №19

Cool store with cool stuff...distilled down, basically a cross between a glamorized army-navy surplus and an Eddie Bauer. Like any specialty shop, the items tend to be over-priced...remains to be seen if the quality measures up to the price. The one thing holding me back from five stars is that they dont offer a veterans discount. Considering the market theyre targeting, military and emergency services personnel are their primary clientele...youd think it would be appropriate to offer some kind of discount in appreciation of their service. Hell, even 5% would be better than nothing. Otherwise, nice place, helpful staff, not pushy. Great to browse and find some unique stuff.

Review №23

I went in to exchange some pants that I had bought for a size bigger. The sales lady at the register and guy walking the floor made me feel very comfortable, as some stores you ask to return or exchange an item and the sales associates give you a side eye look like youve done something wrong. I will definitely be back to buy more items. Way too go 5.1.1!!! Great store!!

I went into the store and purchased the 5.11 Tactical Tac Tec Plate Carrier. I brought the two Rogue weight best plates with me. An employee named Paul inserted the two plates and then, adjusted the plate carrier to fit me correctly. If you have watched the videos, this is no simple task. I was so grateful that I offered him some money, but he declined. I will be shopping there again for concealed carry clothing.

Wonderful and knowledgeable staff. Excellent customer service. They helped us pick out our first weight vest. Very happy with the service and our new gear.

Review №28

Drove an hour to go here because of there 20% off sale. I got there an hour before they closed and was have trouble deciding what style of pants and shorts to get. Before I knew it they were about to close. The staff there allowed me to try on and find what I was looking for. I ended up being there for an extra half hour after they closed. The staff has great customer service and are very helpful and friendly. I will definitely be coming back. Also if you like the 5.11 brand you should try and make it here. They have so much more of a selection compared to retailers who sell there product.

It is so great to have this store locally. 5.11 makes great gear but it is really helpful to have a spot to see things in person and try them on if needed. The staff was friendly and helpful.

Review №33

This store opened March 10, 2018. It was an online store that had all sorts of military and tactical gear and clothing but finally has its own store here in Downers Grove, IL! Environment was friendly and employees were there to greet us and helped up with any questions weve had. Its mainly clothing but theres still gear that you might like. A bit pricey for some things but worth it for its durability. Amazing store and would recommend to everyone!!!

You pay for the convenience of having a store to browse equipment vs online purchases, which helps assess quality. Generally a bit pricy, but the associates were friendly and helpful.

First time in this store. We didnt know they were opening a 5.11 Tactical store until we drove by the area. My fiance was soo excited about this place opening. A Very nice store, not sure if the guy there working was the owner or manager, but he was very friendly. Clean store, lots to look at. Would recommend this place for anyone interested in 5.11 Tactical gear. For men and women.

This author purchased a backpack and some tactical work boots on or about 09,10,2018, that was two weeks ago! I ordered the merchandise one week before my furlough was to end thinking I would return to work with a new pair of boots, needless to say that was the furthest from the truth. Here we are two weeks later and still no boots or backpack. I just got off the phone approximately 30 minutes ago with customer service. Customer service indicated that they had a problem with stock and the items where on back order or whatever. Either way I could care less, the fact of the matter I wasnt informed of the back order prior to ordering the merchandise. If I had know there was a back order I would have looked elsewhere. Furthermore, I wasnt compensated for the inconvenience...ie some additional gear a gift card whatever! In case you didnt know thats how reputable businesses operate. You dont wait until the customer (now irate) inquires about the status of his or her merchandise to hear lame excuses about inadequate stock. My assessment of 511 Tactical is clear, another wanna be internet tactical gear superstore thats not ready for prime time. 511 Tactical has absolutely no idea of how to take care of it’s customers.Nevertheless, I will not longer be doing business with 511 Tactical.

They have black rifle coffee,shirts and hats. They have a small amount of tac vests and tac vest accessories that Ive seen on Amazon for a quarter of the price. Outrageous prices for a product name. Save your money, dont go spending $400.00 to dress up like a tactical douchebag poster child.

Love 5.11. Make sure to look for the ‘local patches’ that are unique for each state they operate in. They’re fun to collect and usually have unique references to the area in question. Staff is always friendly and helpful.Their selection of goods differs slightly between stores though.If you want a better selection of clothes, go to the downers grove store.If you want a better selection of patches and gear, go to the Schaumburg store.Lastly if you’re looking for hats, odds and ends, pouches, amp gearsets, head to Gurnee.
