Shoe phone
A shoe phone is a shoe that has a telephone within it. Though there is no specific evidence that spies or those involved in espionage actually used shoe phones, they were popularised by fictional spies in television shows, most notably the television series ''Get Smart''. Modern mobile phone technology has allowed for the development and production of working shoe phones.〔(Paging Maxwell Smart – O2's line of upcycled shoe phones ). Gizmag.〕
==In espionage==
Though the shoe phone was popularised by fictional television and film "spies", there is no specific evidence that functional, operating shoe phones were given to actual spies. It is not clear whether the technology required to create a working shoe phone was available and practical during the height of the Cold War, the era on which many fictional representations are based.〔(''The Incredible World of Spy-fi: Wild and Crazy Spy Gadgets, Props, and Artifacts from TV and the Movies'' ) by Danny Biederman (Chronicle Books, 2004)〕
A shoe phone of the sort depicted by ''Get Smart'' would almost certainly not have been possible in the era depicted by the show (1960s and 70s). When the Central Intelligence Agency announced that one of Don Adams' prop shoe phones would be placed on display at the CIA Museum, the agency dismissed any link to actual spy equipment and said shoe phones and other such gadgets were, "but fantasy precursors to today’s wireless communications".〔(''SPY-Fi Archives: Where the Worlds of Entertainment and Intelligence Collide '' ) (Central Intelligence Agency, 8 November 2007)〕
