Hehehehe

They certainly ARE NOT cheaper. Poly/Wool Blend is more expensive.

In our area of the world we have guys that work both high school and college. Since they do not want to carry extra pants (i.e. buy extra pants) they wear the poly/wool (darker pant) when working with high school only umpires (heather grey).

At the state tournament this year the Executive Director of the OSAA (Oregon School Activities Association) commented that umpires in the same game had different colored slacks.

He wants this to end.

BTW, not all umpires worry about wearing the most inexpensive items.
