5.11 Tactical® Rapid Assault Shirt MultiCam® is a tactical combat shirt specifically designed for comfortable wear under body armor, a plate carrier or other protective and load-bearing equipment. Its hybrid construction combines different types of fabric to provide the necessary balance of durability, stretch, ventilation and comfort during active use.

The model is primarily intended for military personnel, law enforcement professionals, instructors, shooters and other users who require functional clothing for use with tactical equipment. The central body section is made from a soft and flexible material, while the sleeves and collar are constructed from a more durable fabric designed for intensive use.

Construction for Use Under Body Armor

The key feature of the 5.11 Rapid Assault Shirt is its zoned construction, developed with prolonged use under body armor or a plate carrier in mind. The central torso section is made from a blend of cotton, polyester and spandex. This combination provides softness, breathability and the necessary degree of stretch.

The sleeves and collar are made from a cotton and polyester blend. These areas are more frequently exposed to contact with tactical equipment and surrounding objects during use, so a more durable material is utilized to provide increased resistance to wear while also retaining its color.

This combination of materials allows the torso area to remain comfortable beneath body armor while providing the exposed sections of the shirt with the durability required for field use.

Ventilation and Moisture Vapor Management

Special mesh inserts are positioned under the arms and at the back of the neck. They improve airflow in areas of increased heat and perspiration and help release excess heat and moisture vapor during physical activity.

This construction is particularly important when wearing body armor, which significantly restricts natural airflow around the torso. Strategically positioned mesh sections help maintain a more comfortable microclimate during prolonged use of tactical equipment.

Flat Seams and Comfort Under Equipment

The Rapid Assault Shirt MultiCam® utilizes flat seams that reduce the number of raised areas on the inside of the shirt. This is particularly important when the fabric remains in prolonged contact with the body beneath body armor or a plate carrier.

The underarm areas are free from conventional seams, helping reduce the risk of chafing during active arm movement. This construction improves comfort during shooting drills, movement, equipment handling and other physically demanding activities.

Functional Collar

The high collar features a zipper extending approximately to the middle of the chest. This allows the user to quickly adjust ventilation according to temperature and the intensity of physical activity.

The collar can be used in two configurations: as a high stand-up collar or as a fold-down collar. When raised, it provides additional neck coverage and helps reduce direct contact between the skin and straps or other elements of tactical equipment.

Sleeve Pockets

Functional pockets are positioned in the upper sleeve area. Their flaps are angled to make the contents easier to access while wearing body armor or other tactical equipment.

This arrangement allows the pockets to be used for storing small items that may need to remain readily accessible during duty or field operations.

MultiCam® Camouflage
