5.11 Tactical

I’ve spent a lot of time and money buying, trying, and tearing up gear. 5.11 is the only place I will drop $$ knowing the gear is tough as nails. I bought the S.O.M.S. 3.0 for Camera gear and needed to swap it out for a different color.

Will and Patrick at the Fairax store took care of my exchange with no issue.

Thanks dudes—see yall next time.

For all tactical apparel and toys make sure to check this place. They have a excellent selection of pants, both nylon and denim. Tshits, polos, and button downs. They also have tactical shoes and boots. The staff is super friendly and helpful!!! The store is really clean and organized!!!!

Best selection of any 5.11 store I've ever seen! Bigger store than Rockville or the others. Good folks in the staff, the fellow with dreds helped demo EDC draws with the pack I was considering, and even pointed out obscure features I wouldn't have known about. Good spot! I sometimes chuckle at the hypermasculine videos playing of tactical shooting and Scottish strength games, but it's all part of the fun experience. 😊

Wish they had the "Cable" Hiker boot in stock, corporate seemed to only send 1 demo pair to stick on a manequin and none to sell. And that's what I actually came in to check out in person.

Great store with pleasant customer service and plenty items to choose from.

Another great visit! I’m very glad that the store was able to stay open during the various closures in the state which were caused by the pandemic. The reason is clear- they support the essential workers and they take the necessary COVID precautions seriously. They meticulously maintain their store and take care to keep things tidy.

With each visit I’ve found the staff to be very polite, professional and courteous. Each staff member demonstrates in depth product knowledge and is quick to provide solutions as I work through which item will exactly meet my various requirements. Today, Monique helped me with a solution for securing medical gear in my Jeep. She was very professional and helpful.

If you need good gear or gear advice from knowledgeable and professional folks, this is definitely the place!

I come in here at least 2x a month. I love this place. I love the staff! They are always so welcoming. They remember me and always give me the best service I’ve ever experienced. Monique has always been so friendly and someone I would love to help me with my shopping all the time. They need more workers like her she represents the company extremely well. She makes walking in the store feel like home and I wouldn’t want anyone else helping me!

My wife and I stopped by the other day to take advantage of the 70% off sale. They have a clean, well organized store and are stocked with quality products. My wife is especially satisfied with her athletic t-shirts/tank tops purchased here.

I work as a foreign auto technician. When I started there, I noticed how nice the uniforms were. They told me they get them from 5.11 tactical. I went to the store. The staff were extremely efficient. I actually prefer the Apex pants. They are lightweight, breathable, and cut just right. Before I decided on those I did try on many other styles. They just fit perfectly. They also look so professional. Until this week I had been using the same pair for over 90 days. They are super durable. I just bought 2 more.

Knowledgeable, helpful, friendly staff. Top-quality product and support at realistic prices. Good selection. Handy location. The Fairfax store has an amazing sale this weekend -- load up!

5.11 offers very good quality apparel for a fair price. This store has a nice assortment of product and the staff is very friendly. The Rip Stop pants are a great buy for those in need of a pant with a strong material that will not tear. I usually order from 5.11 online, but it was nice to see and feel the quality of the product first hand. Stop in and take a gander.

Staff was friendly with a great selection of clothes and outdoor/tactical gear. A must for any tactical professional or outdoor enthusiast.

Monique listened to my needs for a bag, and showed me multiple options for something suitable and tailored for me. She was very knowledge in equipment and what to look out for. Dave, the store manager, also helped me with a few decisions.

Will return again!

These folk are INCREDIBLE. No... they're not going to walk you by hand to thru each section of offerings but I've had nothing but quality customer service (15+ visits) and I will be back, without a doubt! Added bonus -- the manager makes sure that any regional offerings are good to go! Thanks for my awesome Virginia Cardinal shirt!! Thank you Dave & Monique

I am so happy this store came into my area. Went during the black friday and cyber monday weekend and got some amazing deals. I got exactly what I was looking for an affordable price. Seems like items that aren't on sale are expensive but honestly the quality and fit speaks for itself too.

In addition the staff could not have been friendlier. Really a wonderful group of guys who were always available to help but weren't pushy either.

Will definitely be coming back to see the different things they have on stock.

Monique and the staff at the Fairfax location have always been very helpful . Great customer service if a certain item is not in stock at the store Monique and the staff always check to see if another location nearby have it stock. Always like going to the store new items are constantly being displayed.

ALCON;
It really doesn’t get any better than this. Really great sale’s staff and a great selection of clothes from those that are out in the field and down range; to those of us riding a desk. Also, they sell black rifle coffee. The only thing I want them to do is sell those awesome sandals/slides for post workout recovery. Bring back the sandals!

These guys know their gear! I was educated on a pair of tactical pants that had a lot inside that blew my mind. The price is high, but so is the quality of the products they sell. Yes, I would shop there again.

Great place and staffs! Hope they have 2018 new releases soon.

Make sure the destination is actually in front of building before you start. Somehow it leads me to backside of building and my friend to 66 so he had to go all the way to Centreville and came back.

Come for the Grand Opening. Only time you’ll get a discount! 20% off your entire purchase. Also Mission BBQ is here for some great food options.

This place is awesome. The service was excellent.. The gentleman at the counter was very talkative great communicator good with customers... Such good customer service is hard to find.
