That is exactly my point, Ozzy. The bozos who go cheap on steel toed work boots usually do not invest $100+ on shin guards. The folks who usually go for the high-dollar shins, usually go for the high-dollar plate shoes too. Wilson should target the 3409's toward the serious umpire market, and design a new model sans the flap.
