Buy the poly-wool pants from honigs - dollar for dollar, the best quality umpire pants you can buy. It is a heavier fabric that wears excellent and lays nicely on your legs. The Fechheimer's that were specifically made for the big leaguers (the one's with the logo from Logo Athletic, Champion, Starter etc.) were the highest quality umpire pants ever made. Unfortunelately, they cost about $275 per pair and that material is no longer produced. The Honigs poly-wool pants are about as close to them in quality but at a fraction ($70)of the cost. And best of all, they WON'T turn pink on you (although the pants are a slightly darker shade of grey). Trust me, I've owned every brand imagineable - buy the Honig's Poly wool, you won't be disappointed!
