A few days ago, I wrote about the shoes and sandals made by ArchPort Shoes. These shoes feature concealment compartments that criminals may utilize to hide drugs or weapons.

I received a pleasant e-mail from Matt Potts, the president of ArchPort. Potts is aware that some criminals may misuse their products, and is working toward educating police agencies about their products.

Potts wrote, in part:

“ArchPort Shoes is proactive in ensuring that law enforcement and security organizations throughout the world are informed about our products. In addition, we have a program where we will send law enforcement our products without charge (shipping and handling only). A number of agencies have ordered the products for instructional purposes.

Richard, I just want you to know that our intent is to sell a useful product. We will do everything within our power to inform officers and others about our products so that they know of the potential for misuse”

I encourage all police and security agencies to take Potts up on his generous offer, and obtain samples of their shoes.

Potts said that police departments can make requests by sending their information to info@archport.com.

Stay Safe!
