Has anyone seen this, from 5.11?

If this is a prank, it's pretty well executed. They even got Scuffy Wallace in on it.

If I were going to build one of these, it'd have M.O.L.L.E webbing across the fell, and possibly more on the apron in place on d-rings. I like that the cargo pockets are big enough for full size AR mags, and the slant pockets look pretty good, too.

I am sort of wondering how well this would carry a concealed carry holster, though. I'm not quite shaped the same way as the guy in the YouTube video, and I might have a problem with the whole thing staying where I want it.

No shipping notice for me, still showing the 8th. I will be so jealous if you have a shipping notice already KiltedTexan.

No I haven't gotten a shipping notice yet, I just know on the 5.11 site that they wouldn't be ready or shipped until 9/1/12. But soon very soon.

The 5.11 Tactical Kilt was an April Fools joke by 5.11, but it back-fired. There were so many people wanting to order them that they actually had to do a limited edition run. Now, however, they are out-of-stock & there are no plans to do any more. Orders were no longer taken after 9/1/12, per the company website.

Actually, the deadline to order was May 3rd, per the email they sent to those who had inquired back in April.

From that email:

"Please note, this is the only time we are going to make the Tactical Duty Kilt. The last day to place an order for your kilt on 511tactical.com is Thursday, May 3, 2012."
