A Word from 5.11 and James Reeves on the Stache Sneaker

“5.11, the global innovator of purpose-built apparel, footwear, and gear, has introduced a new colorway of its renowned Stache Sneaker, in collaboration with The Firearm Blog’s James Reeves. The new shade, Iron Grey, has a dark grey canvas exterior, while the interior pops with tropical vibes and a rebellious edge — a red backdrop featuring hibiscus blooms colliding with skull graphics. The look is finished with a clean, off-white rubber outsole for contrast, making it equally at home on the street or on the move."

“For me, the real test was whether The Stache could handle real life — from long days on your feet to being machine-washed and crammed into the bottom of a duffel bag before a trip. That’s the kind of reliability I wanted, and I’m proud that this shoe delivers without compromise,” said Reeves.”
