Doesn't MiLB wear +POS?
Whatever the Major League Umpires wear is irrelevant.
Example; At one time the MiLB umpires wore Olive Green Pants. I do not know of any HS association that adopted that color.
My response as most responses deals mainly with the amateur game as that is what most if not all of us do.

What does that have to do with anything? How is the brand of pants used in MiLB irrelevant?
Yes +POS provides the MiLB uniforms.

I know you asked how the pants are meaning are they comfortable but I just wanted to make a note that +POS Pants are not Fechheimer which from my experience most associations require. The +POS pants are primarily prevalent in LL umpires or other similar Youth Organizations...
I am a NY State Certified HS Umpire and if you want to work you have to wear the Uniform that is accepted and +POS is NOT accepted at least not in the NY State Association. Other States may have different rules and that was my point.
Before purchasing any umpire clothing/accessories, check with one's association to see what is acceptable or not.

Where are you getting this info Pete? The Fechheimer lists their pants as "Heather Gray". +POS lists their pants as "Heather Gray". Also, how do you consider +POS pants to be "Little League" pants?
