The main problem with wearing shorts is that many times our less professional compatriots don't wear a decent pair of coaching shorts. Some female officials that I have seen have worn shorts that were so tight that they looked like they were spray painted on. And, other officials have worn shorts with a very short inseam that just doesn't look professional at all. The key is to wear a uniform that looks professional whether it is long pants or shorts. (However, I do think that black socks with black shoes look really tacky with shorts!)
