My 2¢ on the ELBECO
When properly laundered and pressed, they looked much sharper than the mesh pullovers. JMO, of course. Starched with a "military" press, they looked very sharp.
Problem was, too many umpires seemed to just pull it from their bag, where it had been wadded up since the last game, even when occasionally washed, it had never seen starch or felt an iron since it left the factory. Those guys looked 1000x worse than the same guys using the same kind of garment care with the pullovers.
I do like the way I can get away with more casual garment care, even though I do lightly press even the pullovers. (No starch, tho).
BTW, since the ASA Officialgear.com still sells them as official ASA, I guess they are still allowed, subject to local rules.
