Maxwell Smart truly had the first mobile phone, hidden inside his shoe. The "Get Smart" shoe phone was one of the most memorable gags from 1960s television. Now you can make an exact duplicate of Smart's famous shoe phone or at least a reasonable facsimile? How about putting a cell phone inside an old shoe just to say you have a shoe phone like Agent 86 did?
Instructions
1. Cut a hole in the shoes sole large enough to contain a cell phone. This may be very difficult if using a loafer like the one in the show. Using a sneaker with a sponge sole may work even better.
2. Place and secure the cell phone inside the hole. You should not use liquid adhesive to do this as it will likely damage the phone. Use adhesive strips.
3. Create a false bottom cover to fit over the phone. This could be done with the material cut out to make the hole. If you have an older shoe of the same type, use its sole.
4. Secure the cover onto the shoe in a way that it can be removed easily. Velcro strips may work well. Cut a tab in the heel that you can pull for removal.
5. Cut a hole in the cover so sound from the phone can get through. This is so you know when the phone rings. Use the location of the phone to determine the best place for the hole.
