Advanced fabric technology and tactical engineering give the Defender-Flex Jean from 5.11 Tactical a modern look and design tailored specifically for shooters and concealed-carry practitioners. The Defender-Flex Jean is made of LycraT400 Tough Max denim, a blend of cotton and polyester. The stretchable fabric allows for more movement than standard denim—a feature any armed citizen should appreciate. The Jean incorporates a standard, five-pocket styling with the addition of two, hidden, rear, magazine pockets and an extra-deep coin pocket to house a pistol magazine or knife. Due to its added flexibility, users will find IWB holster accommodation more comfortable. The Defender-Flex Jean is available in Indigo and Dark Wash Indigo colors, with an option for either slim- or straight-fit legs. Price: $70. Contact: 5.11, Inc.; (866) 451-1726; 511tactical.com
