The reason that we in California wear white polo shirt, navy blue slacks with black or blue belt, all white leather shoes and white socks is 5-2-1 NOTE: "By state high school association adoption, officials uniforms may be modified." The CIF has opted to remain with the uniform that we have worn for many years.
When I refereed in Ohio and Michigan for ten years, I always wore white shoes and white socks with my black pants and black & white striped shirt. For me, it was a way to differentiate my uniform from what I wore to referee basketball.
