In our area, they are only worn in two instances;
1) Single man, Freshman HS games (not worked by umpires in the HS Association).
2) Little League (volunteer umpires).
They are probably frowned upon because few Associations have them on their list of approved colors. It's not that they are Red, it's that they are not on the list. In the two instances I noted, the umpire is not a member of an Association, so they can wear any color they choose.
