Looking fashionable/cute/sharp is meaningless.
Uniformity/cleanliness/neatness/professional is meaningful.
Imitating MLB is as useless as imitating NFL/NBA/MLS.
No reason for logos either, just a plain shirt and plain trousers and plain ball bag and plain cap and plain jacket and plain shoes in whatever color combo it would be. Just the same uniform for all sanctions, all leagues, all tournaments, etc.
The guiding principles should be enabling each umpire to have a full uniforms for whatever they work, multiples if needed, at the least practical cost.
