Costa Mesa, Calif. (Jan. 19, 2026)5.11®, the global innovator of purpose-built apparel, footwear, and gear, is excited to unveil its new product releases for 2026 at SHOT Show in Las Vegas. The year’s offering delivers updates across men’s and women’s apparel, next-generation innovations with A/T™ in V.XI™ footwear, expanded professional solutions, and an evolved range of load-bearing gear designed for training, travel, and everyday readiness.

The collection of new products reflects 5.11’s continued focus on functionality, innovation, comfort, durability, and style, delivering gear that adapts to real-world demands – whether on the job, on the trail, or on the move.

“As we look toward 2026, our team remains focused on delivering innovation with purpose: gear that’s not only durable and technical, but genuinely elevates how our customers work, train, and live,” said 5.11 CEO Troy Brown. “This collection reflects the needs of professionals and enthusiasts alike, offering solutions that enhance readiness in any environment.”

5.11’s lifestyle lineup evolves further with the addition of new pants and outerwear options for both men and women’s styles. These pieces combine the brand’s signature performance with versatile silhouettes made for movement.

Delivering lightweight warmth and everyday versatility, the Women’s High Atlas Insulated Full Zip Jacket ($175) is a casual, cold-weather layer that features water-resistant fabric and lightweight PrimaLoft® insulation to provide just the right amount of warmth for daily routines. A flattering 2.5-inch vertical quilt pattern, fully lined stationary hood with elastic binding, and a one-way center front zipper with chin guard create a polished, easy-to-wear silhouette. Practical details like zip-secured hand pockets, an internal drop patch pocket, and a convenient locker loop add comfort and convenience, while a subtle reflective heat transfer at the upper back and a woven logo label at the left-hand pocket deliver understated finishing touches.

For women, 5.11 is also introducing the Valkyrie Tight ($110), a purpose-built hybrid hiking/trekking tight designed for women who demand mobility, durability, and functional storage on the move. Constructed with a breathable jersey knit body and reinforced stretch-woven panels, the Valkyrie delivers a fitted, supportive feel without restricting movement. A stretch waistband, internal drawcord, and running gusset enhance comfort and range of motion, while thoughtfully placed hand and cargo pockets offer superior functionality. Finished with flat-locked seams for all-day comfort, the Valkyrie Tight blends performance materials with utility.

On the men’s side, the Founder’s Jacket ($175) returns with a new charcoal colorway. The first-ever technical blazer designed in partnership with professional operators, this innovative and essential piece redefines the boundaries of professional outerwear.

Raising the bar for haul-all versatility and storage, 5.11 is bringing back favorites from the All Missions collection, with the AMP12 ($170) and AMP24 ($190). They feature 5.11’s patented HEXGRID® multi-angle load bearing platform, including a removable 9×9 HEXGRID® panel for rapid mission customization. A full clamshell main compartment with Quad-Zip zippers provides complete access to organized storage, supported by internal loop panels, mesh organization, and admin pockets.

New to the load-bearing lineup is the LVC12 Backpack ($160), an urban-friendly 21-liter pack designed for commuting, traveling, and everyday adventures, and everything in between. With a 270° main compartment for fast, modular organization, a laptop sleeve, and an ambidextrous side-entry CCW compartment with removable holster strap, the LVC12 keeps tools, tech, and gear organized and locked-in. Extra touches like a fleece-lined quick-access pocket, hidden zipper stash, stretch water-bottle pockets, retractable webbing loops, padded back panel, quick-release shoulder straps, seven available color options, and compatibility with the LVC6 attachment ensure the pack is ready for every adventure.

The Skyweight™ collection is also receiving an update with the addition of the Skyweight™ Survival Plus Chest Pack 2L ($90), delivering fast-access functionality, low-profile carry and rugged survivability for hikers, hunters, and backcountry professionals who need critical gear at the ready.

An ambidextrous rear CCW compartment with elastic mag loops, a laser-cut MOLLE panel, a bottom water-bottle pocket, a new aluminum buckle, and breathable anti-odor mesh backing make it as capable as it is comfortable.

5.11 will also showcase the new Skyweight™ 25L ($150) and Skyweight™ 35L ($200) packs, purpose-built for speed, mobility, and extended missions where weight and durability matter most. Designed with lightweight materials and a streamlined profile for easier and more comfortable carrying, the Skyweight packs balance load stability, smart organization, and all-day comfort, making them equally suited for fast-moving operations, backcountry pursuits, and demanding everyday carry. The 25L features new additions like an external front pocket with MOLLE paneling, anti-odor mesh and added nylon to the water bottle pocket. The 35L option boasts an adjustable lumbar panel and a compatible rain cover (sold separately).

The all-new MVR 35L Backpack ($150) and MVR 25L Backpack ($120) deliver rugged durability, modularity, and lifestyle versatility in a clean, modern silhouette, built around 5.11’s signature CenterLine™ design and the patented Modular Gear Bag System for unmatched customization.
