I wonder if part of the whole NFL referee shirt differences is to make them stand out on TV? I notice that in most college basketball games, it looks (to me, on a non-HD TV) like the officials are in the gray shirt until you get a close-up. I should imagine that you don't have the same problem with the wider stripes in the NFL. I'm thinking that had to have been taken into account. Then, this new shirt, it'll be interesting to see how it looks on TV.
