Horrible Customer Service! I loved my 511 side zip boots. Actually had 2 pairs but when trying to reorder them with a LEO discount the costumer service was awful. I was on the phone for over an hour where they transferred me 3 times then left me on a blank line for 20 additional mins. Because of this experience I’m ordering shoes from Bates or a different company. So sad that they promote being Law Enforcement friendly but can’t even direct one caller. I thought they would be better!

Got half my order went to check on… Got half my order went to check on other item and it was cancelled on me without notification. Love their products but Im going to be looking at competitors now. So disappointed.

Thank you 5.11 for opening a store near… Thank you 5.11 for opening a store near me in Paramus NJ. Now I’m gonna go broke. I wanted one of everything in the store. The assortment is endless. Today I bought a tactical waterproof rain jacket. Needed it for tonight. My Columbia would get soaking wet. This jacket truly keeps me dry, drys off very quick and feels very well made and comfortable with or without a vest on. I could use it all year, just layer up during cold season. I’m a big knife collector and no one but another can understand, just one more. Amongst the 100+, I have several Fox and Spyderco Emerson Wave Folding Karambits. I’ve had my eye on some fixed blade Karambits, the 5.11 Doug Marcaida among them. The 5.11 was the cheapest and that’s what made me hesitate online. But today in store seeing it and touching it, I bought it instantly. It’s very well made, perfect size, razor sharp and more Wharncliffe style blade then typical Hawkbill which is what I wanted. The Kydex Sheath system has excellent retention and gives you six ways to carry, belt or molle. It was a no brainer. I have a list of things I want or need to update. And no, I’m not an employee. Just a gear junkie. I dare you to walk into that store and Not buy something.

Loaned 5.11 my money for 3 months Bought and paid for a backpack early December but didn’t receive it. Figured Covid Blah...Blah...Blah! Not sure what has happened cause I can’t get a response from customer service. So then a few days ago mysteriously a email popped up refunding my money with no explanation. So I apparently patiently waited for almost 3 months for a refund. What a garbage company!

Shady business Well, I ordered two pairs of pants: a cheaper pair on sale and a more expensive pair. They sent two of the cheaper pair. I sent a pair back. They took over a month to issue the refund, and when they did, they refunded me for the cheaper pair. In essence, they stole 50+$ from me. They do NOT care about their customers and they couldn’t have been more clear on that point.
