Class B Stryke PDU

The Class B Stryke PDU from 5.11 Tactical is a professional-grade short-sleeve tactical uniform shirt engineered for law enforcement, security, and military personnel who demand durability without sacrificing comfort during extended shifts. This shirt bridges the gap between traditional Class A dress standards and operational Class C field wear, making it ideal for agencies requiring a polished appearance at briefings, community events, and administrative duties while maintaining the practical utility needed for dynamic response. The PDU (Patrol Duty Uniform) platform has become the gold standard across federal, state, and local agencies precisely because it delivers structured professionalism without the weight penalty of heavier dress uniforms.

Built with 4.84 oz. Flex-Tac mechanical stretch fabric, the Class B Stryke PDU provides exceptional range of motion for officers who transition between desk work and vehicle operations throughout the day. The mechanical stretch technology allows the fabric to move with your body rather than restricting torso rotation—critical when drawing a duty weapon, reaching across a console, or performing administrative tasks at a workstation. Bartacking reinforcement at all major seams and stress points (particularly at sleeve attachment, pocket corners, and side seams) ensures this shirt withstands repeated laundering, sweat exposure, and the daily wear patterns of professional duty. Secure chest pockets with reinforced stitching keep credentials, pens, and small gear from shifting, while hidden utility pockets provide covert storage for sensitive documents or personal items without disrupting the professional silhouette.

Law enforcement agencies, security operations centers, and administrative military personnel benefit most from the Class B Stryke PDU's balance of presentation and performance. This shirt pairs seamlessly with Class B tactical trousers for a cohesive uniform profile that photographs well for official communications and community engagement while maintaining the technical advantages of modern tactical fabric. The Teflon finish provides inherent stain and liquid resistance—essential for agencies working in varied environments where coffee spills, weather exposure, and incidental contact with equipment require a shirt that remains presentation-ready without constant touch-ups. Available in both short-sleeve and long-sleeve configurations, the Class B Stryke PDU accommodates seasonal operations and regional climate requirements while maintaining identical fit geometry across both options.
