Covert Casual Shirt - Great September 18, 2008
"I needed something to help conceal my off-duty weapon as I found even with a conceal style holster the gun was still visible. 5.11 then came along with this great shirt that helps to cover the gun and provides easy access to their conceal holster shirt!
It was a great idea to have the hidden snap buttons under seemingly normal buttons on the outside, so I can easily access my gun or other items I've stored in the holster shirt.
The covert shirt also has great interior deep pockets that can be used to hide a badge wallet, so in case of getting robbed you can give the suspects your pants wallet without the credit cards, driver's license, badge and ID and they will probably not see your badge wallet hidden in the covert shirt!
The one knock I have on this shirt is when I wash it the Velcro on the sides used to gain access to an off-duty holster always seems to pick up socks and when I pull the socks from the Velcro the socks seem to pill.
Also, I wish the shirt didn't make me look so big, but other than that great concept, just need some more colors to go with the black & blue!

BANG for the BUCK September 9, 2009
"These serve a primary purpose (concealment) AND look good while doing it. I wish that 511 would expand the line to lighter weights for those extra-hot days, and some patterns other than tight plaids. Maybe even a couple of Hawaiian Prints, and some stripe patterns would also look good. Lets GO, 511~get it on....while the gettin's good!"

Great Shirt! September 2, 2009
"I bought this shirt blind, looking for a concealed shirt. I got it very quickly and was suprised with how comfortable and easy it was to carry. The overall comfort of the shirt is also great! You can't see the weapon at all. I highly recommend this style shirt!"

Good, but no size SMALL available August 3, 2009
"Good looking shirt, well made. Does not come in size small which is what I need. Some printing can still occur so be sure to test where you position your firearm and if it will print while bending over, etc."

My New Favorite Shirt! August 1, 2009
"I love this shirt. It's light weight, VERY comfortable & easy to move in. The button snaps are wonderful. Great for everyday wear whether or not you're carrying your side arm. I bought two and am getting more I like them so much. 511 suggests you order one size larger for concealment. I ordered my exact size (XXL) and it's perfect."

Covertly casual July 15, 2009
"The fabric and construction are what we've come to expect from 5.11. The shirt, if bought to wear outside the pants, definitely hangs well and covers a compact 1911 without showing. The inside pockets can work for carrying the ID case,and can be accessed quickly because of the false buttons that are actually snaps. A medium fits me snug and looks best tucked into the pants, whereas the large is big enough on me to conceal a holstered pistol. Low key, sharp looking, doesn't call attention to you."

Great purchase July 11, 2009
"I believe this is a great shirt and it has met it's goal as a service to the off-duty or Under Cover Officer. The only draw back is that in the Texas heat it is a little bit heavy."

Excellent Shirts! July 9, 2009
"Reading the other reviews lead me to purchase two of these shirts (one in black, and one in rust). I loved them so much and got so many compliments that my wife bought me two more for Father's Day. Recommend you buy one size larger if you are doing CCW (or even if you aren't, I usually take an XL and the XXL just feels great!)"

Great shirt June 19, 2009
"Every thing about this shirt is great. My only problem is(and this could have just been a one time screw up) they velcro for the CC pocket sometimes rubs against your chest causing some irritation. Something easily fixed with a needle and tread."

"I have just received my Covert Casual Shirt and have worn it a couple of times. It is quite comfortable and will probably become one of my regulars. I wear a size large and it fits well for a large but for concealment it could use a little more room."

Outstanding Covert concealment shirt March 31, 2009
"This the best covert concealment shirt I have ever owned. Bought it at the LAPD Academy store, it's cool in hot weather, breaths and I love the concealed inside large pockets, great for ID, cash, credit cards in case you don't want to have a bulky wallet. I'm ordering more. Only suggestion is to have more available colors."

Pretty good shirt September 29, 2008
"First the cons:

a. I'm on the short side, 5'7", and the shirt seems a bit too long for my torso.

b. Its a bit heavy.

c. the pockets seem a tad too narrow for things like a small notepad.

Neutral:

a. The velco side flaps. Could do without them I guess. See a) above.

The pros:

a. The pockets do not have flaps, so its easy to put things away when hands are full.

b. Love the interior "carry" pocket. Great for holding papers and flat items.

c. Its a good loose fit, and cool to wear.

Very well designed September 25, 2008
"These are very well designed shirts. Very easy to access concealed handgun especially if you are wearing the 5.11 Holster Undershirt. The shirt is a bit bigger than I would like it to be. Laundering it in warm water helped a little bit. Otherwise, a great business casual shirt."

Found One September 16, 2008
"Finally after much searching I found a place in Maine that has these in XL. I bought one at the CT SWAT Challenge and loved it. I have already called and ordered another one. They are the most comfortable shirt I own. No problem concealing an S&W 45 and the cuffs I put in the front shirt pocket. I would highly recommend them but they I would not be able to find more XLs! So don't buy this product! More for ME!"
