    My husband & I, both volunteer firefighters, are headed down there on Friday (we're taking the NREMT skills test on Saturday) and was wondering where's a good store in Baton Rouge to get 5.11 or similar ems pants?

    Police supply is your best bet for full range of sizes and styles. Also maybe Jim's Firearms on Siegen Lane, Bass Pro in Denham Springs, or Cabela's in Gonzales.

    BR EMS doesn't issue anything by 5.11. The kaki pants for example are at first glance exactly the same as 5.11 but when you look closer there are changes. The only uniform shop that we will use does not stock the 5.11 brand.

    Baton Rouge police supply is also where I'd go for 5.11 pants.

    Thanks!

    According to google earth, the store is just a couple blocks from where our test is.

    I just noticed the second part of the question. We get our uniform pants from Bates and Thigpen in downtown Baton Rouge.

    If you head through Lafayette, guidrys uniforms isn't far off i10. We use a lot of Blauer gear through them. I finally ripped a stitch on a cargo pocket Sunday after wearing the same pair (with regular washings of course) since around last April or may. Been too cheap to order another pair lol.
