Tuss,
Umpire fashion etiquette is (so far) an eternally elusive subject to me.
Some knowledgeable on the subject suggest that pleats "just aren't done". Others find them preferable.
Personally, I believe it depends on one's build and posture.
All of my umpire pants have pleats. My build is to the "taller, thinner" side, and my posture is impeccable.
Go with what looks best on you.
JMO.
