I visited my local 511 Tactical dealer the other day. They carry a very broad range of the 511 lineup and are very knowledgeable. They had never even heard of the 511 Tactical kilt.

Thanks for the heads up MM! I thought it began tomorrow. I ordered a multi-cam and charcoal and black duty belt. Great kilts! Was hoping to get a Navy but already out in my size.

I was wearing my 5.11 TDK at the sporting goods counter at the local Walmart, when a gal said to me that's he 5.11 Tactical Duty Kilt isn't it? She could have knocked me over with a feather! Turns out she has a Tactical shop in city north of mine. She hadn't seen the real McCoy but was aware of them and their story. So, Bren some stores do know about them!

Ah! Gotcha. I wasn't sure if they were all over or not. Kilts are a very small market in my area. That would probably be the reason why they hadn't heard of them.

:-D

Same here, Bren. You were talking to the sales staff and I was talking to an owner which is probably the reason for our differing experiences.

They're available again this year. This was just posted on the 5.11 website:

Glad it was helpful. I was debating whether or not to start a new thread or just add to this one.

I've got a charcoal and a coyote on the way. Plus a tactical gnome shirt because, well, it's a tactical gnome (and it was on sale).

Thanks for posting the link here. I just ordered mine. I had ordered an elkomando, but returned it. It ran too small and I ended up not liking the styling. I think I am going to like this more.

What I do not understand with these kilts, is why? oh why? do they make such a narrow front apron? I was semi interested until I saw the narrowness of the front apron. This is why I ordered my camo kilt from Robert Pel in his off the rack line (for not a huge jump in price). Robert makes his kilts
with traditional style aprons.

Am I alone in thinking this way, or do you like the 5.11 kilt enough to overlook the apron?
