With the same durability, functionality and innovation as our best-selling 5.11 Tactical Shorts, the 5.11 Academy Shorts are also preferred by law enforcement, military and fire professionals for both on and off-duty wear. The 5.11 Academy Short comes in 3 colors, with size ranges to fit virtually everyone. Like the 5.11 Tactical Pant, the sturdy, seven-pocket 5.11 Academy Short is complete with 5.11’s trademark rear slash pockets and utility strap.
Functionality With a shorter length and a different pocket layout than the 5.11 Tactical Shorts, the pockets on the 5.11 Academy Shorts are strong and roomy. The shorter length provides greater flexibility and movement during vigorous activity. These shorts are great for bicycle patrol range.
Storage Front pockets of the 5.11 Men’s Academy Shorts are strong and roomy; inverted pleats on the cargo pockets remain flat until needed for a neat, professional appearance. The thigh pockets are arranged to carry cell phones, magazines, or utility knives. The extra deep rear slash pockets are easily accessed and hold extended mags, a baton, or a 15” flashlight. You can also use the utility strap to secure a flashlight or store your ear protection at the range.
Durability 5.11 Academy Shorts utilizes a proprietary weave that binds in on itself to prevent unraveling. For added durability, the magazine/cell phone pocket and corners of the slash pockets are lined with Cordura® nylon. The double reinforced seat provides enhanced abrasion protection. Double and triple-needle construction is utilized throughout along with forty-five bartacks in high-stress areas.
Hardware On 5.11 Academy Shorts, we use only genuine locking-flange YKK® zippers and quality PRYM® snaps, both of which are top-of-the-line in the industry.
Fit As with the 5.11 Tactical Pants, the specialized fit of 5.11 Academy Shorts is a closely-guarded secret based on a tried-and-true formula created 30 years ago. Designed for active movement in changing conditions, the shorts perform and look great on individuals of all shapes and sizes. For best results, pair the 5.11 Tactical Shorts with the 5.11 Tactical Shirts or 5.11 Tactical Polo.
