This episode of Behind a Shield podcast is brought to you by 511 Tactical, a company that I've

used for well over a decade, and they are offering you a 15% discount on every order.

And I will tell you that code in just a moment, but I want to do another product highlight.

And I can testify, as with the other ones, through personal experience.

I wore a 511 uniform way back when I worked for Anaheim

Fire in California. So we're talking 13 years ago. And I know for a fact that some of my brothers

and sisters I work with still wear some of the clothes that they were given when I was hired there.

So some of the job shirts, jackets. And this really kind of resonated with me because I realized so many

the departments I've worked at, there are men and women with lockers crammed with old worn,

frayed uniform, and that really represents wasted budget. So to have uniforms with durability

means that you don't have to purchase them as often, now you can apply that budget elsewhere.

Another area they've really focused on is redesigning their women's first responder uniforms.

I am a skinny, six-foot-tall man, and some of these uniforms I'm issued literally hang off me like

a trash bag, and I can imagine it's even worse being a female first responder.

So they have really taken that into account and redesigned the cuts so they're far more flattering

to the female firefighter first responder, medic, etc. On top of that, several departments I work

for have gone from job shirts to polo shirts, 511 has those and then to underline a product I've already talked about,

they have the footwear. I wore the CST slip-on boot for a long time from 5-11, and now the Norris

sneaker that you've heard me talk about is a lightweight duty boot that puts far less pressure

on the ankles and knees, the back, etc. So as I mentioned before, they are offering you

guys a continuous 15% discount. And all you have to do is use the code shield at checkout at 511

tactical.com. So once again, code shield at 511 Tactical.com.
