5.11 Tactical Stryke Men's Pant Style

Excellent product! Great fit! I had to get my husband a second pair because he wanted to wear them every day due to how comfortable they are. He is very active and they stretch when he moves and are so durable. I have a feeling we will be replacing all his trousers with these. True to size.

I owe this review to Amazon and all future person(s) seeking the perfect pair of EMS pants in which are INCREDIBLY COMFORTABLE, PROFESSIONAL LOOKING, and NOT BAGGY whatsoever!! I just was hired at my local hospital as an EMT/ER Technician so I was directed to purchase black EMT pants or something tactical with a professional appearance to satisfy the professional appearance requirements as well as job requirements when away from the ER responding to a call. The town in which I reside is very small with no such store in which to purchase these said pants.. I must have ordered and returned 4 pairs of EMT pants from Amazon to no avail!! I'm 5'9" with a waist size of 29 so my ideal pant size is 29/30. It's been a struggle finding pants in that size let me tell you and everything I've ordered was too large due to the smallest size being 30/30 or one of the two measurements being too large. Well I was about to give up all hope until I found these pants on prime!! The size of these pants are 28/30 and their absolutely perfect! The waist is one size smaller but the adjustable waist component to these pants makes it perfect and snug. The length is also perfect and true to advertised length! These pants fit and feel like a dream! The material is amazingly comfortable and appears durable to endure anything. These pants fit very well with no "baggy" appearance and look very professional! There are more pockets than I know what to do with!!! Absolutely love these pants!!!! Will most certainly be buying more! My recommendation is purchase a pant with the waist size being 1 size below your normal and that's just a recommendation as the adjusting waist gently compress around you making it a even more ideal feeling fit. If you want non-baggy, amazingly well fitted true to size pant then look no further and order these. It will be your first and last purchase unless you buy more of these!!! All these positive reviews are true! Believe us, these are the greatest fitting, feeling, and looking pants for any EMS related job!!

*EDIT* I now own 4 pairs, and they hold up very well. I have waded thigh high water in them, and even some light snow. They are cool enough to wear in the summer and warm enough to hold up in the winter and repel water during rain too. I loved them so much I went ahead and bought some Ridgelines as well. The best pants I have invested in for years. I was avoiding 5.11 for a long time because of the price. After spending an equal amount on other brands including condor, wranglers (riggs), carhartt, kuhl, tru-spec, mars, and the other newer ones that are basically knock offs of all these brands, I finally caved. By far the best decision I have made in a while when it comes to pants. I got so fed up with 'tactical' pants that I tried buying jeans even. It just did not work. I bought a 34x32 and I am 5'11 and 180 pounds. I am toned. They fit perfectly. Unlike every single other pair of pants I tried, the 5.11's fit perfectly. Plenty of room, not overly baggy, and great in the waist/crotch area. You can move and be comfortable. The crotch is also gussetted and well stitched. The fabric is 10x better than the 'stealth' condors I recently tried, and much lighter than any other brands like carhartt and riggs. Kuhls are nice, but they are very limited and I will keep the one pair I bought, but they are even more than 5.11's and not as practical in how I wear them and what I carry. They are also tighter. I was seriously impressed with the fit and quality of these pants. I owned a pair of the lightweight tactical pants years ago, around 2012, and they were nice, but I always hated the front pouches instead of pockets. These Stryke pants are the perfect medium. The inside front pockets are perfect. Plenty of room to hang your keys and they are a good material. Nice and durable. The cargo pockets are not as loose, but I think they are also perfect. I have tested carrying around a magazine, although I would never do it regularly. However, the cargo holding power is great. Not too big and puffy or extended, and not too small with a lack of any room. I included some pics that I thought may be helpful. I have already washed them once and wore them all day before taking the pictures. They are nothing like the older 5.11's. They are much nicer. The pics that amazon shows are actually a good visual representation as well. Colors may be a bit lighter or darker, but you should expect that. Overall, I am really impressed, and will gladly spend the money on these pants a couple more times. I plan on getting about 5 colors and some duplicated of the same color. I returned tons of pants and jeans lately. I am glad I finally went back to 5.11. They really thought about the design of these pants and perfected an already great version in doing so. However, I advise you to check 5.11's website directly, because after my purchase I was informed through email they have a promo code for some extra gear or discounts. So check there first. I personally use Amazon Prime, but given the free gear or a discount for so much purchased, I would rather go that route next time. I highly recommend these pants.

Wonderful pants. Very durable. Using them in the Philippines 🇵🇭 and they are holding up great. Love these for daily use. I love all of the pockets and they come in very handy. They are well thought out.

My first time for these 5.11 pants. I normally wear a 34x32, so I bought a 34x32, and it fit exactly as expected. As I am a little older, the stretch waist is perhaps this pants best feature. Sitting down, the waist gives just the right amount to still be comfortable, without falling down when standing up. They are exactly what I have come to expect in a cargo pant. Not any more or less baggy or tight. I prefer my cargos a little on the looser side because I use them for what they are designed for. Keeping quite a bit of stuff in the pockets. I have two peeves I wish were different. First, there is no key ring clip loop and the belt loops are not conducive to clipping a typical key ring/clip. That's a pretty big drawback for me because I carry a pretty big set of keys. Second, the supposed cell phone pocket in the front is completely useless for anything. Its way too small for any cell phone these days. I tried using it for my pocket knife, but the pocket is poorly located sort of high front so pretty much anything you try to put in there is going to poke in your stomach when you sit down. And they are too small to reach into to get change or money or whatever. Not sure how those silly pockets got by any experienced designer. I've only washed them a half dozen times or so, but so far I don't see any abnormal color fading, or maybe no fading yet. But all pants fade after they are washed enough times, so not sure what some other reviewers were complaining about. I would highly recommend these pants for comfortable active, duty, work pants. Oh, and they look pretty sharp also. The one pair I got are black. I intend to get some more in other colors and will wear them day to day.

Nice pair of pants so far. I like 5.11 products and have quite a few of them - bags, backpacks and apparel. I've got to say, though, that while I really enjoy using their bags and backpacks, I've had some poor experience with their pants. I own a pair of their Jean-Cut pants in Dark Navy Blue and wish they were better - the colour faded off in some places, the metal ring at the waist got some rust on it, the belt loops are very tight. I don't know how these Strykes are going to show themselves, but so far they seem to be quite decent - they are comfortable to wear and I really like the cargo pockets that are placed higher than usual. The fit is really slim, not like most of tactical pants on the market, and that's another plus of them - they really look like you can wear them every day without getting comments and looks on you. To be honest, I'm a huge fan of Blackhawk Lightweight pants - I own several pairs and in my eyes they are one of the best tactical pants on the market - tough as nails, no colour-fading, no bad stitching, nothing. The first pair I've been wearing for 4 years now and they still look good - like used, but without any signs of abuse or holes (and I've used them in a lot of situations that were not really gentle for clothing - construction, outdoor work, shooting, etc). So 5.11 Stryke Pants will have to prove themselves to me as, naturally, I'll be comparing them to the BH LW pants. So far they're OK, comfortable, nicely-looking, inexpensive, and if the colour doesn't magically fades off with time and no holes easily occur after minor abuse when they shouldn't have - they deserve a good rating.

I have 7 pairs of the 511 tactical Stryke’s, all different colors. 1 for everyday of the week. Honestly they are the best pants I’ve ever worn. The build quality is second to none. Seems like they have the world’s strongest Velcro too! I have older pairs and the Velcro on the pockets is still good as new. Pros: -Great fit. The size is exactly as advertised. I am kinda sketchy with online clothes shopping but 511 hit the mark. The gusseted crotch really helps. -Durable and tough construction. I’m a forester and I haven’t ripped a pair yet. -Coolness factor is pretty high. I get asked all the time where I get my pants. -Color. They have a lot of color options to choose from depending on what you like. -Pockets for days. -Rip stop works great and they hold up to heavy briar patches. Not puncture proof but they don’t tear. Con’s: -Stiffness. When they are new it’s like wearing slick canvas, kinda like old school Ben Davi$. I wash mine a few times before I use them. -High water. The legs ride kind of high for some people. I like the higher fit as I’m in the woods and wear logger boots anyway.

I bought these before a trip to DC some months ago. I bought then because of the front pockets to keep my ID and bank card in a pocket I can see. I also liked the Velcro pockets to help prevent anything from falling out. My other pants have buttons on pockets which don't close securely. I also bought them for the elastic waist. I have been gaining and losing weight due to a medical condition. I bought a size bigger than I normally wear because I was concerned I might "grow" out of them. The size bigger fit fine tho. I'm glad I got a size up because the size I wear would have been too small. I've had the same concern with other clothes with elastic fit so it isn't just these. I have other 5.11 tac pants off a different design and I bought this style to have the elastic waist as much as the front pockets. Theses pants exceeded my high expectation. They are tough! They don't "breathe" well, but they stand up to alot of force. My sister's dog tore a hike in some cheap pants I had by jumping on my and scratching the pants. That dog both scratched and chewed these causing NO damage!! I'd buy these again despite the high cost. This may be TMI, but I have west these at least 4 days a week alternating with the only other pair of pants that fit me. (I can't afford a second pair of theses right now.) It has been 5 months. They have started to fade noticeably, but that's expected with washing them a couple times a week. The stitching had withheld the constant use, the Velcro and elastic have not weakened (despite me carrying several pound of stuff in my pockets regularly--medical supplies, extra phone batteries....). After all theses months, there are no places that show wear--except the crotch. That will probably wear out first. I don't think it's a flaw in the pants; I never had that problem until I gained weight. Only 5.11 pants last in this regard. I'm planning to take a trip to AZ and plan to buy a new pair simply so I have a pair that isn't faded. I believe it's well worth saving and buying a pair every couple months than to have $20 pants that only last that long.
