As a law enforcement officer, you most likely spend your days on duty wearing a uniform. Wearing the same outfit every day means you never have to worry about what you wear to work. But it also means that because you live in your uniform while on duty it better be comfortable and durable.
New fabric blends and innovative styles that incorporate room for gear and ease of movement make working any detail a little less stressful, if not a walk in the park. Whether you have a place to stow your flashlight or if your pants will tear as you climb a fence while chasing a perp are not questions you want running through your head on the job. Finding the right uniform in the first place can eliminate these problems.
5.11
From a company known for clothing with abundant pockets, these uniforms don’t disappoint.

The shirts have strategically placed visible and hidden pockets to hold all your gear, bi-swing shoulders for easy movement, and sewn-in military creases. B Class pants have Velcro-close cargo pockets as well as two 8.5-inch-deep rear flashlight pockets.
