This episode is sponsored by 511, a company I've used personally for well over a decade and

continue to use to this day. And 511 wants to reach out to you, the audience, and offer you a

discount, which I will get to in a moment. As with each episode, I want to highlight one of their

products. And I think an area that really needs to be discussed is uniforms. So most of us listening

to this podcast are in some sort of uniform profession.

And 511 were founded on clothing, the tactical athletes. So they went to the member of military,

the police officer, the firefighter, the EMT, and asked them what do they need to function

at the highest level when it comes to their clothing. So their uniforms are reverse engineered from the user back to the manufacturer.

Another observation I've made in several departments I've worked at is that we end up with

lockers full of worn, faded uniforms.

And what I found with the 5-11 uniform that I wore in California was that wasn't the case.

They lasted several years

and some of the job shirts and jackets lasted way longer than that. So longevity and cost

efficiency is also another element to this as well. Yet another layer to this is the female

tactical athlete. So they realized that men and women, surprise, surprise, are not shaped the same way.

So they started designing uniforms accordingly to fit the female tactical athlete and allow her to be

able to move efficiently. So so many reasons why I advocate this company. On top of all, there are the

great products, the Norris sneaker, which I think is a great alternative to a station

boot, the AMP pack or missions backpack, and then their civilian clothes as well, their shorts, their

jeans, so, so comfortable, so user-friendly as well. So 5-11 are offering you a discount of 15% of all of your

purchases. So use the code, Shield 15, S-H-I-E-L-D-1-5

at 511-t Tactical.com.
