Frequently Asked Questions

What is the primary innovation of the 5.11 Tactical Vehicle Ready Series?

The primary innovation is the patented Hexgrid platform, which allows for multi-angle MOLLE attachment. This means users can orient their pouches and gear at any angle, not just vertically, improving ergonomic access, especially when seated in a vehicle.

How does the loop material on the 5.11 Vehicle Ready platforms enhance usability?

The loop material face allows for quick attachment and detachment of pouches equipped with hook adapters. This is particularly useful in emergency situations where gear needs to be accessed or removed rapidly from the vehicle.

What does Gear Set compatibility mean for the 5.11 Vehicle Ready gear?

Gear Set compatibility means the entire platform can be easily removed from one piece of gear and attached to another. This allows users to transfer their organized gear setup between their vehicle, backpack, or plate carrier, offering significant modularity.

What are the benefits of the material used in the 5.11 Vehicle Ready platforms?

The platforms are made from a durable nylon laminate with a loop face. This material is designed to be rollable for easy portability and storage, and its unassuming appearance helps it blend in, not immediately signaling tactical intent.
