Looking for an affordable tactical jacket?

We want the best!!

It was a couple of weeks back. One of our good clients wanted a piece of tech that was going to keep the team warm, look the part, but also had to be functional.

We had the perfect solution.

The 5.11 Sabre 2.0 Jacket - follow this link for more information
  • It looks great.
  • Handles the wind and rain extremely well.
  • It has big pockets and two of these are handwarmer pockets. They're great! Especially when you need finger dexterity on a cold day on the range or for work.
  • The hood rolls up and zips off. If it's not raining, you don't want to have a massive hood following you around.
The finishes and the materials used are next-level. An awesome piece of tech!

Definitely made for the elite.

The reaction from the client was good.

They liked the look.
The pockets were in a good spot.
The specs fitted well with what they wanted.

We showed them a couple of other options.

5.11 Double Duty Jacket - Available only on special order.
  • Adaptable weather protection
  • 5.11 Hidden Document Pockets
  • TacTec System front pockets
  • Hidden handwarmer pockets
  • Badge tab kit included
  • Underarm zippers for ventilation

A great price point option...

...compared to the Sabre 2.0.
It's extremely warm and has the option of a zip-out quilted liner and has underarm ventilation zips.
You have a lot of control over your own temperature management.

Client comments.
Love it. Price is spot on.
But...it has more of a duty look and we're looking for something that has more of a covert angle.

So, basically something with the look of the Sabre 2.0 but the pricing point of the Double Duty.


Tough ask...

But...we did manage to source something.
The quality isn't Sabre 2.0 level, but the whole unit is great and ticks a lot of boxes.
The client agreed, loved it and locked in an order for their team.

We were that impressed by the jacket that we're adding it to our line-up.
