I own 3 ball bags, all blue. I use two for a game and the 3rd is a backup, an older bag I just haven't thrown away yet. It is a different brand than the other two, those are identical.
I only have navy, power blue, and cream shirts, so I dont' have to worry about what goes with black shirts, but according to some here I should be wearing black bags with the cream shirt.
Until this thread I never gave the bag color much of a thought. It's interesting though because I do give thought to mask color with shirt. I have three masks all with doeskin pads, black, navy and red. The navy shirt with red trim is the only one I will wear the red mask with. I wear the navy mask with navy or powder blue shirt, and the black mask is used with any of them. The black one is the only one with a hangy thingy on it so that sometimes plays into the decision on which to wear, ie who is catching today.
Last year I made a comment about the red mask with black harness and caught some crap from some posters here that the harness should be red. It was a color fashion statement that was like water on a duck's back for me. I could care less. I got the mask on tremendous sale, had a spare set of doeskins and a spare black harness and voila', an item I could use was born.
I have navy and black undershirts if I think they will be visible and when I know they will not be it don't matter. I have worn white under plate gear. I have one red undershirt and I only wear it if working a crew where all the base guys want to use red so I go along.
All my hats are blue. For cold weather my gloves are black and my cold gear for the head is navy (only worn on bases).
Tomorrow I will go back to not giving a thought about my ball bag color, because I only have three, they are all blue, I only use two of them, and nobody I know personnally cares.... To each his own, unless you are trying to impress someone else.
