I've got any Extra-Huge red mock turtleneck that I sometimes wear over my cp. It looks sharp, plus the cp don't get caught up on the inside of my plate coat. I've found that the buckles on my WV's sometimes catch the inside pockets. Not a big deal. But most of the time I roll with a mock turtle under the cp.
I don't go by what MLB umpires do. They aren't my heroes, and I don't have posters of them on my walls. Some of you guys gush over them like teenage girls. I swear, if Gary Darling had some sort of brain lapse, and wore his shin guards onside his pants, half you guys would be donning them the same way.
Me, I'd rather go with what the GLM's have to say when I walk on the field. "Damn, you look good" is far better than looking like Joe West. Me, I'm lucky that I don't have any goober association to tell me how to dress. So I go with what I think looks good. And what looks good on me, may look horrible on you. That's cool.
Now I've tried wearing a normal umpire shirt over my cp, and under the plate coat. The shirt collar just didn't sit right, and looked bad on me. Then I tried my Platinum under the coat, and I looked like a freakin' robot. For me, the original WV fits perfectly under the coat.
IOW YMMV
